WWE star Ezekiel claimed he studied Kevin Owens' in-ring style for years.
Earlier this year, the former Elias returned to WWE with his new moniker. Despite receiving heavy criticism from fans in the early stages, the newly introduced Ezekiel got a better response, courtesy of his incredible work.
Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling in a recent exclusive interview, Ezekiel admitted he's quite pumped up for his upcoming match this Sunday and is ready for whatever Owens offers. He put the former Universal Champion on notice by saying:
"I can't even tell you, you know, I don't know. I'm all 'zeked' up about it, you know what I mean? We're gonna have to see when I'm out there on the big stage, in front of everybody, it's me and Kevin Owens, I can tell you this, my whole heart is gonna be out there for the people to see, I'm gonna be zeke and you know, whatever Kevin brings, I'm gonna be ready for it. I like to think, so I've been studying this guy for years and years, like I said, I'm a huge wrestling fan. So, I feel like I've got him scouted pretty well, I feel like he does not know what to expect and I'm gonna keep that much a mystery until the show."
