Kevin Owens started a ‘New Face of America Open Challenge’, where he faced a jobber who got a cheap pop for mentioning his hometown and proceeded to dismantle him and garner genuine heel heat.
He was just as good on commentary, silencing Tom Phillips and Byron Saxton and stealing the show, even when AJ Styles and Baron Corbin were tearing it up inside the ring. With all due respect to Zayn, Charlotte and The New Day, Owens was the best acquisition for the blue brand and has never seemed this menacing, even when he was Universal Champion.
If he keeps this persona up, it may even eclipse his JeriKO run.
