Kevin Owens acknowledges The Rock

Kevin Owens after his win.
 

The Miz and Dolph Ziggler were on the sidelines at today’s Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati Bengals NFL game. The two hometown stars promoted TLC. Kevin Owens finally made his WWE debut on Thursday night for NXT Takeover and it was a surreal moment to say the least. He made quite an impact with a win over CJ Parker.  He was physical, fast-paced and he had the crowd hanging on the edge of their seats.

When it was all said and done, Owens got the win on his debut. After the match, ‘The Rock’ congratulated Owens for his performance. And Owens replied to The Rock, the following morning.

@FightOwensFight Congrats on a helluva debut. Very happy for you homeboy. Stay humble and hungry.. and see ya at the top! #SunsetFlips4Life

Now that was certainly worth the wait and it’s going to be incredible to watch his progress going forward. You can tell that the fans will be solely behind him and he might not be down in NXT for long, to be honest.
