After announcing his participation in the Royal Rumble, Zayn was confronted by his best friend, Kevin Owens, in Monday Night Raw. The Prizefighter told the former intercontinental champion that he wanted to be this year's main event in Wrestlemania with him. Ko said he was sure that Sami would win the Royal Rumble and he would defeat Cody Rhodes in his fight for WWE's undisputed championship on a ladder in the same live premium event because he and his best friend would support each other.
While Owens's comments seemed to hint a possible betrayal of Zayn, Roberts suggested in his podcast Notsam Wrestling That The Prizefighter could lose to The American Nightmare before costing his best friend Royal Rumble, leading them to face Wrestlemania in a combat without a title:
“I don't see Kevin Owens defeating Cody Rhodes for the title. Therefore, I don't see Sami Zayn winning the Royal Rumble. What I see is Kevin Owens Vs. Sami Zayn in Wrestlemania not for the championship. I can see a scenario where Kevin loses before Cody At night, ”he said. (From 39:44 to 40:11)
