Was K.O. the plan all along?

By Scott Keith on 12 September 2016

> Do you think it’s possible that they planned to move the belt to K.O. in a HHH screw job all along, but were forced to move things up when Balor got injured?
> It seems to me a distinct possibility; the match ups with Owens on top are much more intriguing – Seth, Reigns, Finn and even Jericho possibly, the HHH storyline could likely lead into Survivor Series and perhaps all the way to Mania.
> Am I just thinking about this too much or what?

Well you know how plans can change and such, but Balor getting a long reign seemed to be the plan from the start. Owens was pretty specifically a backup plan. Plus, you know, he’s fat.
