Kevin Owens Eyes WrestleMania Feuds, Hints At Possible Retirement

Kevin Owens, a staple in WWE for a decade and a veteran wrestler for 24 years, has spoken about his remaining goals in the company.



In a recent interview with Busted Open Radio, Owens revealed his desire to face Finn Balor at WrestleMania, acknowledging his uncertain number of remaining appearances on the grandest stage. Another dream match for Owens? A singles encounter with Rey Mysterio.



"I've never had a singles match against Rey Mysterio," Owens said. "If I have another WrestleMania in me, I'd love to wrestle Finn Balor there. But as far as just goals, I think I've had it so good. I really can't ask for more."



Owens' WWE journey began in December 2014 at NXT TakeOver: R Evolution, where he debuted with a win over CJ Parker (Juice Robinson) before attacking Sami Zayn in a shocking heel turn. Two months later, Owens dethroned Zayn to capture the NXT Championship at NXT TakeOver: Rival.



The Canadian grappler has since cemented his legacy as a WWE Grand Slam Champion, holding the Undisputed WWE Championship, the United States Championship, the Intercontinental Championship, and the Tag Team Championships.



At WrestleMania 40, Owens' quest for another title fell short, as he and Randy Orton couldn't defeat Logan Paul for the United States Championship.

Kevin Owens On Vince McMahon Allegations; 'There's Really No Words To Describe, It's Shameful'

WWE veteran Kevin Owens has spoken out concerning the recent allegations of sex trafficking and abuse leveled against former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon. The accusations have cast a long shadow over the wrestling industry, prompting wrestlers and fans alike to question and condemn the alleged actions. ## On January 25th, 2023, Janel Grant, a former WWE employee, filed a lawsuit against WWE, John Laurinaitis, and Vince McMahon. The lawsuit outlines alleged instances of sexual assault, emotional abuse, and sex trafficking, spanning from March 2019 to March 2022, and claims that McMahon used his position to coerce Grant into unwanted situations. ## Having collaborated with McMahon both on and off-screen, Owens, known for his outspoken nature, did not hesitate to share his thoughts on the matter. In an interview with Alex McCarthy of Daily Mail, he condemned the allegations, calling them "awful" and "shameful." ## "Everything that has come out is awful," Owens began. "Just terrible. There's really no words to describe how sad this makes me feel. If the people spoke out went through what they went through, that's terrible. It's shameful and it can't ever happen again. That's what it comes down to." ## These comments reflect the wider sentiment of discontent within the wrestling community. Female performers are reportedly being approached by news outlets for their perspective on the scandal, further amplifying the gravity of the situation. ## In the wake of these allegations, McMahon's future with WWE remains shrouded in uncertainty. His potential return to the company appears unlikely, and the final outcome for the former chairman is still unknown. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

He dominated Paul, setting up for his signature Cannonball, but Paul wisely dodged out to the floor. Owens chased after him, landing a hefty right and a brutal back senton splash on the hard ringside. Owens then went on a chopping spree, leaving Paul howling in pain. Just when it seemed like Owens was in complete control, Logan finally connected with his injured hand and surprised Owens with a pescado to the floor. ## The tide turned outside the ring. Paul ruthlessly slammed Owens' hand into the unforgiving ring post repeatedly, then cinched in an armbar to further torture Owens' injured wrist. Owens fought back with grit, headbutting his way towards a comeback. Suddenly, Logan surprised everyone with a textbook Octopus hold! He twisted and contorted Owens, even calling for his signature 619 finisher, but Owens managed to cut him off just in time. Owens tried to regain control with another back senton splash, but Paul cleverly countered with his knees up. Owens responded with a punishing neckbreaker over the knee, but the move left him too exhausted to capitalize with a pin. ## Owens landed two massive Cannonballs and a frog splash, but his injured arm screamed in protest with each hit. The fight raged on, both men trading blows. Owens got caught with a nasty throat scrape across the top rope, leaving him gasping.

But Owens, fueled by desperation, cleverly reversed it into a gut-wrenching brainbuster, narrowly missing the pin again. ## Logan's nose was pouring red, painting his face like a gruesome war mask. He landed a haymaker of a right on Owens, but the kick-out sent a shiver down his spine. Suddenly, chaos erupted at ringside as someone from Logan's crew jumped the barricade, only to be promptly ejected by security. Distracted, Logan stumbled on the top rope, his planned move fizzling into a comical pratfall. Seeing their opportunity, Grayson Waller and Austin Theory materialized like opportunistic vultures at ringside. In the blink of an eye, a glint of gold flashed as Logan was handed brass knuckles – a blatant disregard for the rules. Fueled by desperation, Owens capitalized on the distraction, rolling Logan up for a close two-count. Owens, sensing Logan's illegal advantage, lunged for the brass knuckles, his eyes burning with righteous fury. He snatched them away and, without hesitation, unloaded a thunderous strike on Logan's jaw. The referee, who had finally caught wind of the shenanigans, saw the whole thing. The decision was swift and decisive – Owens, despite his valiant effort, was disqualified. ## WWE Royal Rumble 2024: Logan Paul vs. Kevin Owens Match Winner ## WINNER: Logan Paul via DQ. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...
