It was a very emotional promo from Kevin Owens. He talked about his mom in the hospital, saying how she’s been fighting and would want him to be at SmackDown,” Dave Simon recounted.
Johnny North added, “I hope she pulls through. Kevin Owens’ promo was the highlight of SmackDown, a real heartfelt moment.”
