Back when KO was the hottest thing in WWE
Back when KO was the hottest thing in WWE

Remember the good old times when Kevin Owens was humiliating John Cena and putting on classics with his best friend-turned-bitter enemy Sami Zayn? The current Kevin Owens doesn't have the fire that the KO of 2015 had. While he doesn't necessarily need to turn heel to become the KO of olden days, a more aggressive version of him is maybe what it will take for him to become the face of WWE - much like he was the Face of America a few years ago.

Kevin Owens returned to RAW recently, and it will make sense for him to go after any of the titles, even if it means transitioning over to SmackDown or NXT to challenge for any singles championship on those brands.

WWE should allow Owens to retain his trash-talking and ruthless fighting style, even if he is squaring off against babyfaces. Instead of forging temporary alliances, Owens should work as the lone wolf, doing what is in the best interest of Kevin Owens. Who knows? Owens may even end up being the Ultimate Opportunist, defeating Otis for the Money in the Bank briefcase, before becoming the World Champion again.
