Michael Cole was given the task of interviewing one of WWE's most vocal, brash, and controversial superstars right now. The 40-year-old ex-Universal Champion reacted badly to being called for an interview with the legendary commentator.
It was announced that SmackDown would see a segment between Michael Cole and Kevin Owens - who has been extremely vocal on X/Twitter about how he is "right" in his rivalry with Cody Rhodes. Even Chad Gable, who came to SmackDown via the "Transfer Window," agreed that Kevin Owens was in the right in the opening segment of the show tonight.
Kevin Owens was in his car outside the arena in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and first seemed to appear happy about getting to have his voice heard. He quickly flipped and stated how mad he was that he had to fly out to Minneapolis to have an interview with Michael Cole. He told the iconic voice of WWE that if he wanted the interview, he could come to Owens' car out in the parking lot.
For some odd reason, he keeps tagging celebrities irrelevant to the matter. This time, he added celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay and singer/actor Jessica Simpson.

Michael Cole responded harshly after the interview was aired on SmackDown, refusing to go to the car for the interview as it was seemingly "20 degrees (Fahrenheit) outside." To be fair to him, the weather as of this writing shows that Minneapolis is 28 degrees Fahrenheit or -2 degrees Celsius.
This is going to be interesting to watch as KO gets ready for a huge WWE title match on Saturday.
Some are hoping to see a massive upset take place at Saturday Night's Main Event on December 14.
