The final WWE SmackDown of 2024 pulled out all the brakes, preparing for the high-stakes title fight at WWE Royal Rumble 2025. Friday night, SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis ordered Kevin Owens to give up the Winged-Eagle Championship before the show ended.

As predicted, Kevin Owens did nothing, allowing Cody Rhodes to return to SmackDown despite being wounded after the terrible attack he received at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event.

Everyone expected Cody Rhodes to demand that Kevin Owens give up the belt, but they were surprised when he didn’t. Instead, “American Nightmare” issued a challenge to the Royal Rumble.
