"Why does Owens care" - Wrestling veteran questions WWE's booking of Kevin Owens after match against Stone Cold (Exclusive)
Wrestling veteran Vince Russo has questioned WWE's booking of Kevin Owens in the aftermath of WrestleMania 38.
At this year's Show of Shows, Owens faced Stone Cold Steve Austin in the latter's first match in 19 years. However, following a historic match against The Texas Rattlesnake at The Grandest Stage of Them All, Owens was interrupted on the RAW after Wrestlemania by Ezekiel.
The former WWE Universal Champion is obsessed with revealing the real identity of Ezekiel. He is determined to prove that the newly debuted superstar is not Elias' brother but the Drifter himself.
While speaking on the latest edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, former WWE head writer Vince Russo questioned why Owens seemed so obsessed with exposing Ezekiel and the reasoning behind it.
Russo said:
"Bro, why does Owens care? We just finished up with [Stone Cold Steve] Austin and now you're obsessed as to whether or not this is Elias, why? There's got to be a reason why? Otherwise, why do you care? Why would Owens give a c**p if this is really Elias?" [25:40 – 26:10]
