Vince McMahon's Twitter handle is mostly made up of birthday wishes. The WWE boss - or whoever manages his account - never misses the opportunity to send a message to the top Superstars who celebrate their birthdays.
Kevin Owens' career and run-ins with Vince McMahon
Kevin Owens is now 36 years old and the former Universal Champion has certainly come a long way since his humble beginnings on the independent circuit. KO has been wrestling since 2000 and after toiling away for 14 years, he was finally signed up by the WWE in 2014.
Owens has proved that he belongs at the big stage as he has been in the main event scene and has held various prestigious titles during his tenure in the company. Owens never really fit the requirements of what a 'Vince McMahon guy' looked like, however, he was given the opportunities to showcase his talent and it's safe to say that he hasn't disappointed.
If you'd remember, Vince McMahon let Kevin Owens take him out with a headbutt, superkick and a frog splash in 2017 during their feud and that says everything you need to know about their off-screen relationship.
Vince McMahon and the WWE management have faith in KO and the outcome has been heartening to witness. We at Sportskeeda would like to wish Kevin Owens a very happy birthday.
