5 possible opponents for Kevin Owens on RAW: Feuding with a real life friend and challenging for a title

#2. Damian Priest vs. Kevin Owens

Damian Priest is a fighting United States Champion, and a contest with Kevin Owens certainly seems like a big draw for the championship.

The Archer of Infamy put on an impressive performance to overcome Jeff Hardy in his title defense this week on RAW. Kevin Owens and Damian Priest are former NXT superstars, with both winning titles immediately as they stepped up to the main roster. While Priest won the U.S. title from Sheamus, KO won the Intercontinental Championship as his first title on the main roster.

Owens would be looking for a fourth reign as United States Champion if he were to square off against potentially the fastest rising superstar on Monday Night RAW. A contest worth every penny for the WWE Universe.

#1. Finn Balor vs. Kevin Owens

Finn Balor and Kevin Owens are fierce competitors in the ring and good friends outside. The two superstars were in intense battles for the NXT Championship in 2015, with Owens retaining his title against Finn in their first outing.

Balor would beat Owens when they met for a second time at The Beast in the East event held in Tokyo, ending KO's 143 day run as NXT Champion.

They would have another match on RAW in 2018, with Balor prevailing again. With such epic clashes in the past, a new rivalry could certainly take shape as both former SmackDown superstars are now on RAW.

Balor vs. Owens would be a contest involving high-flying moves, athleticism and strength, making it a thrilling bout for the WWE Universe.
