Great match but once again wrong winner. Kevin Owens should've won this tbh. Rollins doesn't deserve this opportunity. He lost at a major ppv so he should fall at the back of the line.

Owens thanked his fans by tweeting:
I really don’t know what to say other than thank you all for your continued support and kind words. It really means a lot.
The day I stop giving it my absolute all in that ring is the day I walk away. Not a second sooner.
P.S. Rey Mysterio is the best.
