5 Ways in which the WWE could use Kevin Owens going forward
Having won the Intercontinental Championship for the second time in a year, Kevin Owens' WWE future promises muchEver since Kevin Owens sent shockwaves across the WWE Universe by cleanly defeating the Face that runs the Place in his first ever main roster match-up, it has been apparent to all that the Indie wizard was viewed as a valuable commodity and potential superstar by the powers that be.Fast forwarding to present day, despite the intermittent setbacks suffered at the hands of Dean Ambrose, Kevin Owens is well placed to push on in pursuit of higher callings in the WWE, with the Intercontinental Title sitting pretty around his waist for the second time in just one year.Armed with a bristling persona that most heels would die for, the spontaneous gift of gab and an arsenal of moves in the ring that is perhaps unrivalled by anyone other than Cesaro, Kevin Owens is the walking checklist of all the attributes that could ideally elevate a wrestler into the stratosphere.On that note, assuming that the WWE continue to book him in a predominantly favourable light as they have done so this past year, here is a detailed look at 5 ways in which Kevin Owens’ burgeoning career with the company can be further embellished, going forward.
#5 Wrestlemania 32
With both the Undertaker and Brock Lesnar – two potential big-name Wrestlemania opponents frequently churned out by the rumour mills – both booked in respective feuds for April, the list of viable and legitimate babyfaces to match up against Kevin Owens is shortening at a worrisome clip.
AJ Styles, Dolph Ziggler and Chris Jericho are the names that otherwise pad up that list, with the absence of the injured Randy Orton, Seth Rollins, John Cena and recently retired Daniel Bryan being direly felt in the face of an acute lack of star power leading up to Wrestlemania 32.
Whoever the WWE finally decide on, or whether they opt to bank on the experience of their resident behemoths in Big Show or Kane, it is becoming increasingly likely that Kevin Owens’ status as the Intercontinental Champion looks set to receive a consolidatory push at the Show of Shows.
Coupled with the lack of incentive or star power to vindicate a title change, and the fact that he just recently recaptured it in a Fatal Fiveway match, Wrestlemania season has all the makings of the perfect platform on which Kevin Owens’ push towards the main event scene can begin in earnest.
