Kevin Owens reflects on Universal title win, his one dream match left, more

[Chris]

On winning the Universal Championship:

“It’s something I had worked for my entire career pretty much—a moment I had envisioned in my mind no exaggeration probably over a thousand times if not more. So when something like that happens in real life you would think that it’s hard to live up to the expectations or almost like to live up to what you envisioned it to be but it definitely did.”

“A lot of that night is still ingrained in my memory from the moment I walked back from the ring to calling my family, talking to my parents, my wife, my kids, Finn even and his family funny enough. Very special moment for sure.”

On his dream opponent:

“Well the answer is always Shawn Michaels and I really try pretty much every year. I think I’m done trying now though. I mean I think he’s pretty much—you know it’s three years running where he’s politely said no to me. I think the next time I ask he’ll probably just tell me to, you know, F off to say it nicely.”

“I think last year he literally had like tricep surgery just to avoid the question. But yeah if I could wrestle, if there’s anyone, I’d love to wrestle Shawn Michaels. And you know I’m sure he would still be able to put in a performance like no other, I have no doubt, but he’s done with it. He’s done. Trust me I’ve tried.”

There's only one thing to get Shawn Michaels to unretire for one night, and it's SAUDI ARABIA BAYBAY

The DX v Brothers Of Destruction match was awful. Timing was off and all faces involved knew they messed up. Shawn v who though???

As terrible as DX vs Taker/Kane was can't really put it on Shawn he was the only decent thing about it.
