In the lead-up to WWE Backlash France, Kevin Owens has stolen the spotlight – and a rather unexpected item – from Cody Rhodes’ locker room. The Prizefighter was seen making his way into the arena ahead of the show, where he unexpectedly popped into Rhodes’ locker room and walked out with a banana.
This peculiar incident came as a surprise to fans, who are eagerly anticipating the highly-anticipated match between Rhodes and AJ Styles for the Undisputed WWE Championship. Meanwhile, Owens will be teaming up with Randy Orton to take on The Bloodline’s Solo Sikoa and Tama Tonga in a tag team bout.
The humorous incident was captured on camera and shared by WWE’s official account, with a tongue-in-cheek caption that read, “Gotta get your daily dose of potassium before #WWEBacklash @FightOwensFight!” The post featured a banana emoji, poking fun at the unexpected turn of events.
This isn’t the first time Owens has shown his playful side. Fans will remember when he was one of the first to congratulate Rhodes upon finishing his story at WrestleMania XL, even lifting him onto his shoulders as the American Nightmare celebrated.
While the reasons behind Owens’ locker room visit remain unclear, it’s clear that he’s always up for a good time – and perhaps getting in some extra potassium ahead of the big show. With WWE Backlash France just around the corner, fans are eagerly anticipating what other surprises the night may hold.
Will Owens be able to help his team take down The Bloodline, or will Rhodes successfully defend his title against AJ Styles? Only time will tell.
