– Kevin Owens recently spoke with The Canton Rep to promote Sunday’s WWE live event in Canton, Ohio. The full interview can be found at this link. Below are highlights:
Becoming the Superstar fans love to hate:
โThereโs really no character. The abrasive personality I have on television is who I am if you insult me. If you get on my bad side, Iโm not gonna be nice.โ
Dealing with internet trolls:
โThereโs a lot of disrespectful people on Twitter. A lot of people will say that it comes with what you do. Youโre on โRawโ and on โSmackdown,โ and you do some questionable things on television, so of course people are gonna come at you on Twitter, but I donโt see why I shouldnโt have the opportunity to answer. Some people are out of line. Some are just straight-up idiots. People get real powerful when all they have to worry about is typing little things on a computer or on a smartphone. They know theyโll never have to answer for the things they say. Iโve had some really awful things written about me, and my family, even. Thereโs a lot of disgusting people on there, but I for one donโt shy away from it. I like to expose it, because I feel like itโs almost the only way anyone receives any consequences for stuff they say. Thatโs just who I am. I was doing that before I got to WWE, and now that Iโm here, I still do it.โ
Going for the WWE World Heavyweight Title:
โI think Iโm already in consideration for that. Iโm being put in the ring with guys like Roman Reigns, Iโm main-eventing a lot of the live events, and Iโve only been here for seven months. I donโt think me becoming WWE world champion is at all out of the realm of possibility. It could happen at any time. I think it might be something thatโs very shocking to a lot of people, but Iโve been doing this for 15 years. I feel like Iโm exactly where Iโm supposed to be, and I honestly think whether itโs sooner or later, I will be WWE champion.โ
