Kevin Owens has worked hard to establish himself as one of the highlights of WWE television since debuting in NXT back in 2014. He has won numerous titles over the years, including the Universal Championship back in 2016. KO also made a bizarre pitch in the past.
Kevin Owens is more than aware of how to get fan reactions, both as a heel and a babyface. This is why he always remains a fan favorite, no matter what he does over the years.
Kevin Owens has faced off against numerous pro wrestlers in the world, which includes Jay Lethal. While speaking on Kurt Angle Show, Jay Lethal talked about his feud with Owens in ROH. Lethal revealed how Owens once pitched to spit on Lethal’s parents.
“There was a time at Ring of Honor where I was feuding with Kevin Steen [Owens] and he wanted to do this thing where he’d spit on them [Lethal’s parents]. The toughest part about that was my parents never sat front row. They didn’t like sitting front row and because of that, if they ever sat front row, it was like, it was a dead giveaway.’
So, I was okay with them doing this angle with him but I didn’t want them front row and he was gung-ho about it and I’m a team player and so are they and it came out — after it was done, I thought it was cool.”
Jay Lethal is happily working AEW right now while Keinv Owens remains one of the top stars in WWE. We will have to wait and see whether the two will ever face each other or not.
