Last year, after a short-lived heel run on WWE SmackDown, Kevin Owens turned face and kicked off a feud with Shane McMahon. Owens' feud with McMahon saw him cut a bunch of promos on WWE TV, one of which was the infamous Pipebomb in which he reminded Shane of how the McMahon family had promised the WWE Universe that a change was coming.

Owens added that nothing happened and instead of deserving WWE Superstars, Shane McMahon was getting pushed.

It was later reported that WWE had allowed Owens to cut his promos without a script being handed to him.

Like Jericho, Owens is also working without a script, Sports Illustrated has learned. He is working off bullet points, but it is a move by WWE that shows tremendous faith in Owens.

It isn't a surprise that the Pipebomb came out so well on TV. Letting someone like Owens go at it without a script was bound to lead to great things. Owens took on Shane McMahon at SummerSlam 2019 and defeated him in the end. Soon after, Owens met Shane in a Ladder match on the Blue brand and the latter's loss led to his WWE exit, as per the stipulation of the match.
