Cody Rhodes wanted Kevin Owens in the ring on WWE Smackdown, but Nick Aldis said that wouldn’t happen. During Friday night’s show, Rhodes kicked things off in the ring and wanted Owens to come down and answer for taking out Randy Orton with a piledriver.

However, it was Aldis who came to the ring and said Owens wasn’t there because he crossed the line with the piledriver and that the situation was being handled internally. Rhodes said Aldis gave Owens what he wanted and made him a martyr. He told Aldis to imagine himself in the ambulance with Orton talking to his family and said, “If I can’t handle my business in the ring, what do you expect me to do?” He said he would fight Owens in his front yard, but didn’t think Aldis wanted the man representing WWE to do that. He said it’s up to Aldis and he wouldn’t wait long before leaving.
