Shawn Michaels hits Sweet Chin Music on Kevin Owens after the WWE SNME Contract signing

Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and Winged Eagle Title Belt Holder Kevin Owens have officially signed the contract and both belts have been suspended above the ring ahead of their match at the Royal Rumble. WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels officiated the signing in his hometown of San Antonio, Texas during Saturday night’s main event, and even got physical when Owens decided to take a cheap shot at Rhodes.

Michaels walked out to the ring first and introduced Owens, who came out wearing a “Cody sucks egg” shirt. He then introduced Rhodes and the pair stared each other down in the ring. Rhodes signed the contract, but Owens grabbed a microphone and ran down the champion. Owens said he could have taken the easy way out and taken Rhodes’ injured knee at the Bash in Berlin, but he valued their friendship.

Rhodes grabbed a microphone of his own and told Owens enough was enough and Owens needed to sign the contract so he could focus on who he faces at WrestleMania. When Owens went to speak again, Michaels said he sounded jealous. Owens fired back, then signed the contract and shoved it into Michaels’ chest before a referee took both belts and had them raised above the ring. Michaels told both men “good luck” and went to shake Owens’ hand, then Rhodes’. Owens took a cheap shot at Rhodes and tried to pick up Michaels for a package piledriver, but Rhodes interfered. Michaels hit Owens with the Sweet Chin Music to end the segment.
