Best Wishes To WWE Superstar Kevin Owens!
Today is a special day for WWE Superstar Kevin Owens.
Kevin Owens is one of the most prominent names on the sports entertainment juggernaut’s roster, having won nine titles overall so far. His last in-ring encounter was at Elimination Chamber 2025, where he defeated Sami Zayn in an Unsanctioned Match.
Sadly for Owens, his WrestleMania 41 plans had to be scrapped due to a neck injury. He underwent surgery on July 18, 2025, but hasn’t made his return yet.
Amid his hiatus, it is important to note that Kevin Owens turns 42 today (May 7, 2026). We at TJR Wrestling would like to send our best wishes to The Prizefighter and hope for his speedy comeback to WWE main roster programming.
Wishing a very happy 42nd birthday to Kevin Owens!
KO has built a legacy that stands as a testament to the power of authenticity. That presence, paired with passion and consistency, has made him one of the most respected and beloved figures the sport has had the privilege of… pic.twitter.com/uKK2McQWv0

Kevin Owens recently made a big WWE announcement
Kevin Owens is quite active on social media. Just a few days ago, he took to X (formerly Twitter) to announce WWE’s return to his home country, Canada, this summer. Check out his statement below, in which he also gave a personal update:
Hello, my name is Kevin Owens. You may know me from several wrestling matches I have had, you know, in the last 26 years or so. Not so much in the last year, I haven’t wrestled since I had a neck surgery. Anyway, since then, I have not been doing much. A lot of walking around aimlessly. But today, I have a purpose. I do, because WWE is excited to announce, so excited to announce what I’m about to talk about, that they asked me to announce it, that WWE is coming back to Canada in August.
Thursday, August 20th, London, Ontario, at the Canada Life Place. I have notes, I didn’t remember the name of the arena. That’s a Thursday Night for the Summer Tour Live Event. Very exciting. The next night, Friday, August 21st, in Toronto, SmackDown. Friday Night SmackDown, that’s going to be big, Scotiabank Arena. Always a great time in Toronto. And then there’s two nights when nothing happens. But then, Monday, August 24th, it’s RAW in Ottawa, at the Canadian Tire Centre. I didn’t even have to look at my notes for that one…So those shows are pretty exciting, big shows coming up.
Tickets are on sale. Friday, May 8th, at 10:00 a.m. on Ticketmaster.ca. There’s a pre-sale on Thursday, May 7th, at 10:00 a.m. That’s my birthday, by the way. It also marks the 26th anniversary of my very first wrestling match. So, you go to WWE.com/events, you will get the information, figure out the pre-sale, and you can buy tickets on my birthday! Think of it as a birthday present from me to you, even though it’s my birthday, and also, I won’t be paying for the tickets, but you know, in spirit. It’s a nice gesture, and a nice way to think about it. So, go buy the tickets, go to the shows, and have a blast, and I really miss you guys. And I mean that 100%. Take care.
Could Kevin Owens play a role during the WWE shows in Canada in 2026? Only time will tell.
