The recent WWE SmackDown showcased some intriguing decisions by the creative team, including an unexpected victory by a relatively new tag team over former WWE Champions.
In the previous episode, Kevin Owens and Randy Orton teamed up against Pretty Deadly. Initially expected to secure an easy win, Owens and Orton faced a setback when Logan Paul intervened, using brass knuckles to incapacitate Owens.
This interference led to Pretty Deadly claiming what could be considered the most significant win of their careers.
In an exclusive interview on SmackDown, Pretty Deadly celebrated their triumph, humorously mentioning starting with a victory cake. Kit Wilson quipped,
“I baked these cupcakes with the tears of the Randy Orton fans. I baked these cupcakes with the sweat of Kevin Owens’ back as I beat him clean.”
Despite Byron Saxton’s reminder of Logan Paul’s cheating, Elton Prince and Kit Wilson brushed off the accusations, relishing their WrestleMania moment.
While Pretty Deadly may not feature in WrestleMania XL, their notable victory on Friday night ensures they remain prominent in the post-WrestleMania season.
Looking ahead to WrestleMania XL, the partnership between Randy Orton and Kevin Owens seems to be an intriguing subplot.
Despite alleged real-life differences, the duo appears unified on-screen.
However, the dynamics could shift drastically at Mania, where they both vie for the United States Championship against Logan Paul. The Maverick could exploit their discord to pit them against each other and retain his title.
WWE fans anticipate an electrifying match between the three superstars at The Show of Shows. The outcome remains uncertain, adding to the excitement surrounding who will emerge victorious with the United States Title.
