Guy was heel for years and years, had a fantastic babyface moment that took him out of the show for surgery..and had weeks of “I’m a nice family guy” promos...
And for what? They bring him back as a prop for Vince to use against Kofi, leading to a muted return because we weren’t sure if he was face or heel..and now he’s looking bored out of his mind presenting the Kevin Owens show. I’m not even sure he’s got a match at Wrestlemania unless it’s in the Battle Royale with all the other no-hopers.
Poor Kevin. He deserves so much more.

To me he's dollar-store Bam Bam Bigelow.

Would have liked to see him feud with Joe, even though the barrage of fat jokes would have gotten old.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Owens is gone sooner than later.

Between Owens' and Reigns' returns just being like "Hey, alright", this company needs new writers as soon as possible. At least Roman got one great segment out of beating cancer before starting his feud with Drew "Ugh, we get it, you're mad" McIntyre.

Also KO seemed like he was going to be the guy to face DB but Kofi jumped in
So in this instance he was only hurt by just bad luck of the draw
However, I do want him and Joe talking shit to each other for the U.S. title

I'm a Kevin Owens fan and I'm happy to have him back as a face, but I hope it isn't true that they promised him Kofi's WM spot before Kofi got hot. Guy was incredibly stale for a couple years and was doing nothing to earn that kind of spot.
I'd love to see a KO vs. Joe US title feud at some point.

Kevin can be proof why wrestlers will be hesitant to agree to a rotation system if it's true Kevin was promised a World Title match at mania. There is no guarantee when you are away that your spot will still be there when you come back.

I just want Kevin and Sami vs The Usos goddamn it.
I never wanted or needed this “James Corden” shit they’re trying to shove on me. He’s better than this.

Dont worry,after WM he will go straight to feuding with Baron Corbin.
And for some reason Kofi will face Bobby Lashley

They should've held off on it till after Mania. Kofi's momentum was heating up, he was in a no win situation.

Like, have Joe in the ring, talking about how he vanquished Mysterio at WM, and he's looking for new blood and BOOM Kevin Owens' music hits. Instant face, a new match-up, and one that could benefit both dudes.

Owens has the unfortunate situation of being the Batista to Kofi's DB, only difference is that Owens isn't still getting his main event spot too and doesn't really have the clout to just go into business for himself the way Batista did during that program to salvage himself.

Owens/Joe would be a hell of a feud man. Hell, Owens/Orton, Owens/Elias, hell Owens against any uppercard heel can work when you think about it. He's that special case.

He has match ups but obviously with this being Mania season, he's got to wait until after to get the ball rolling
Owens/Joe at Summerslam or some shit is def something I would want to see. Hell, assuming Sami is ready to come back you always have the option of putting them as a team too

Owens has a line of guys before he's dead in the water and besides this is nowhere near as bad as what he was doing last year. Owens/Andrade too? Man he's good.
