In 2017, while Kevin Owens opened up on his friendship with Sami Zayn. He talked about the rivalry they shared and how they had competed against each other, but had also been by each other's side for most of their careers.

“I would say that we are more like brothers than we are friends. You know you don’t choose your relatives, you don’t choose who your brother is, you don’t choose who your sister is, you don’t choose your family. You were born into a family. In this case, we weren’t born into each others families but we, from the start of our careers when we started wrestling on the independent scene in the U.S and even back home in Canada... Once we started getting our name out there and more recognized, people just booked us together all the time, and that wasn’t our choice,” Owens disclosed.

The superstars have amazing chemistry with each other as a result of which they are constantly paired in feuds and alliances.
