Fans were left surprised when WWE announced that Kevin Owens will be having a Last Man Standing match on SmackDown next week against Sami Zayn, as it has been reported that Owens was set to take some time off.
The situation has now been clarified by Dave Meltzer, who is reporting that Owens asked for “just under two weeks off”, meaning he’ll only actually have missed last week’s episode of SmackDown on FOX.
As of right now, it’s unclear why Kevin Owens asked to miss last week’s SmackDown, but fans of the former Universal Champion will be pleased to know that he’s going to be back before too long.
As previously noted, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn will have a Last Man Standing match on Friday Night SmackDown next week. The winner will progress to the men’s Money in the Bank ladder match later that month.
