I feel like this moment doesn't work with the IC/US titles especially when they've both won both of those repeatedly already. They also don't have anywhere near the same narrative, because while Sami was a perennial midcarder for almost his entire main roster run, Kevin opened his main roster run by beating Cena clean when Cena wasn't being thrown under every available bus yet, and has been a world champion already.

I'll grant you the crossface, and even throw in that it was a Triple Threat Match. But lots of wrestlers celebrate with family and friends after their wins, especially in main events/championship matches. What made the Benoit/Guerrero celebration different was that it was two top singles champions celebrating together. The proposed KO/Sami celebration would be a repeat of that, but replace "top" with "secondary." I'm pretty sure Benoit was the only other occurance in WWE prior to that and after, maybe I'm wrong. I can't recall any time a champion ever celebrated with family that wasn't already a wrestler to close the show. It literally just happened at Elimination Chamber with Rhea's family. |

I can see them meeting up backstage at Mania before their respective title matches to wish each other good luck but that's it.
