Owens in particular has recent history with New Day, having tricked Kofi and Woods into accepting him as an honorary member of the group during E’s injury absence, only to betray them and earn a WWE Title match at Money in the Bank, at which Kofi retained.
WWE Champion Kofi Kingston will of course defend his title in a steel cage match against Dolph Ziggler on Sunday.
