6'8" second generation name confirmed to be training; 16-year-old was at the WWE Performance Center recently

The Performance Center is the official wrestling training system of WWE and it has created several superstars since it was founded in 2013. A current star recently brought his 16-year-old son to the facility and gave him his first formal wrestling training.

Kevin Owens has two children with his wife Karina – a son named Owen and a daughter named Elodie. His son Owen is now 16 years old and stands at an impressive 6-foot-8. He's eight inches taller than his father and is taller than a lot of the superstars on the roster.

In an appearance on NHL Now as part of WWE's partnership with the NHL during the Stanley Cup, KO opened up about his son's desire to be a pro wrestler. Owen recently visited the Performance Center and began basic training.

"He's 16, he's back there [behind the camera]. He's 6-foot-8. He's hard to miss. He got in the ring last week for the first time so yeah, that might be an avenue. It was pretty awesome to see, and with WWE obviously, I'm able to kind of bring him to the best possible place to start training so, it’s great to see him kind of have the interest, at least give it a shot and see what happens. … Yeah, it's a real thrill," Owens said.

Kevin Owens to team up with Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton to take on The Bloodline at WWE Money in the Bank

The new version of The Bloodline will be in action as a team for the first time at Money in the Bank next month. A combination of Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa will take on Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, and Kevin Owens in a six-man tag team match as announced on RAW.

Owens has had a never-ending feud with The Bloodline and it resumed when he was attacked by Tama Tonga. Orton has joined the fray since he also felt the wrath of the group. Rhodes was the latest one to get attacked, with Jacob sending a statement to the trio on SmackDown.

The Samoan Werewolf hit a Samoan Drop on Owens on the steel steps, speared Orton through the barricade, and splashed Rhodes on the commentary table in just five minutes. It was one impressive and shocking debut for the newest member of The Bloodline.
