What if Kevin Owens moves to SmackDown Live?

4. The first man to win the WWE Championship after the Universal title

Kevin Owens could make some world title history.

The Universal Championship has only been around for a little over two years now, but the list of champions is an impressive club, including not Owens, Finn Balor, Goldberg, Brock Lesnar, and Roman Reigns.

Excluding Balor (who only officially held the title for one night, and was injured before he could defend it) everyone on the list had previously won other world titles. As a matter of order, though Owens could become the first man to win the Universal Championship first, and then another in WWE.

And Owens' chances of winning another world title and being featured in a main event spot would multiply if he were to go back to the blue brand. Whereas giants like Reigns, Lesnar, and Braun Strowman have dominated the Universal Championship picture this year, with Bobby Lashley waiting in the wings, guys like AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, and Shinsuke Nakamura are in the title picture on SmackDown Live.

Owens fits that scene far better and has deceptively high number of first-time main roster dream matches awaiting him there.
