WWE had taken to Twitter to annianno that Intercontinental Champion Seth Rollins will defend his title against Kevin Owens on this week’s Raw.
BREAKING: @WWERollins will defend his #ICTitle against @FightOwensFight TOMORROW NIGHT at #RAWLondon! #RAW https://t.co/kCz5L8pGH2
— WWE (@WWE) May 13, 2018
This will be the second week of Rollins’ “Intercontinental Championship Open Challenge,” after successfully defending against Mojo Rawley last Monday.
London’s O2 Arena will host this week’s Raw, so it’s interesting the company hasn’t chosen to put an English star in that position instead.
Nevertheless, this should be another in a string of great matches for Rollins.
These two, of course, have gone at it in the past. When Owens was Universal Champion, Rollins challenged him on several occasions. The pair even had one of the better Hell in a Cell matches in recent years.
According to Pro Fight DB, though, this is the first time they will meet one-on-one since January 2, 2017. Oddly enough, that match did not have any championships on the line, despite Owens still holding his title.
What do you think of Owens getting a title shot in London? Let us know in the comments section below, or get in touch with us on Twitter.
