Roman Reigns, one of the biggest Superstars of this era, is targeted by many fans on social media

WWE RAW Superstar Kevin Owens was a guest on the latest edition of Booker T's Hall of Fame podcast. Owens opened up on a variety of topics, and talked about blocking some people who go after his co-workers, especially Roman Reigns, on social media.

"One guy who gets dragged through the mud a lot is Roman, and I have a tremendous amount of respect for Roman. So, a lot of times I would see people say terrible things about him or his family, and then I would look and see that those people were following me. I'm like, 'I don't want these people to have access to me.' "

Owens added that he was once tagged in a tweet where a fan was talking about hoping that The Young Bucks break their neck, and the same fan once asked him for an autograph at an airport, to which he said no.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
