Kevin Owens has established himself as one of the top stars in all of WWE because of his impressive character work and ability to draw fans. He honed his craft in ROH and other promotions before debuting in WWE, and it paid in dividends. He also suffered an injury recently, and WWE will have to scrap some huge plans for him.
It was initially believed that Kevin Owens suffered an injury during the WWE Sunday Night Stunner house show in Madison, Wisconsin on November 13.
That turned out to be true as The Prizefighter suffered an MCL sprain. While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that WWE had huge plans for Kevin Owens prior to his injury.
I believe he was going to be in the WarGames match. He was supposed to be a surprise, so it adds up he’d be in the WarGames match. He’d be the last guy against The Bloodline in that match, because of him and Sami Zayn. If that were the case, this could cost him that. I think they may have to reshuffle that one and come up with a new guy on Friday.
Kevin Owens is expected to be out of action for quite a long time, depending on the severity of his injury. We will have to wait and see how long Kevin Owens will be on the shelf, as fans will certainly miss him.
