Kevin Owens Missed WWE SmackDown Due To Travel Nightmare

Kevin Owens is a huge part of WWE television right now, and that importance will likely only grow as the road to WrestleMania picks up. He was supposed to be on television for SmackDown this week, but that didn’t go as planned.

Sean Sapp reports behind Fightful’s paywall that Kevin Owens was supposed to be a SmackDown for this week’s double tapings. They got next week’s episode out of the way last night, and you can check out those spoilers here.

Sadly, Kevin Owens could not make SmackDown this week. His situation was described as a “nightmare travel situation.”

Kevin Owens was supposed to be featured on the double Smackdown tapings, but couldn’t make it due to what WWE told us was a “nightmare travel situation.” As a result, Owens had to be written out of the shows and major production and writing changes were made. Originally Owens was supposed to be face-to-face with the Bloodline to introduce the John Cena video.

Hopefully, Kevin Owens will not experience any travel hardships in the next few months. He will likely be heavily involved in WWE’s storylines, so re-writing in his absence could be a bit of a nightmare, too.
