Kevin Owens is one of the most popular wrestlers on the current WWE roster. What makes him unique is his slightly out-of-shape look! Owens has always been a superstar who's wrestled in a t-shirt, and not in trunks or a singlet. This was cause for dissent during his Ring of Honor days, with CM Punk.
Owens was told, before he started wrestling for Ring of Honor, that he would have to perform in a singlet. Owens started wrestling in one subsequently, but he was not comfortable. We echo his sentiments when he says that he looks better in a t-shirt.

Owens asked if he could switch back to a shirt, and while he was okayed, Punk passed a comment about the same. When Owens joked back following a match he wrestled in a singlet, things got really heated.
This is one of those legendary locker room stories that's discussed to this very day. Things did improve between the two men. However, they were never in WWE at the same time. A program between Punk and Owens would have been quite cool indeed.
