He did hit a clothesline and senton, but his ribs took away a good portion of his offense and he couldn’t get Crews up for a pip up powerbomb.

Back from commercial, Crews was still in control and continued working on Owens’ ribs with some kicks and a belly to belly suplex and then another, followed by a German suplex for a pin attempt.

Jimmy told him it was enough and to let Dominik go. Reigns tossed Dominik aside and turned to face Jimmy as he told him “not like this” and left the ring.
He called for Jey to come with him, but Reigns said something to Jey and Jey stayed in the ring. Reigns then went back and powerbombed Dominik.
This was a decent show, though we would’ve like to have seen one legitimate championship match, but the gimmicks won out once again.
