Kevin Owens has a growing list of enemies in WWE.

The recent heel turn of WWE Smackdown’s Kevin Owens has seen the formerly beloved superstar become a heel again. After the WWE Bad Blood PLE in Atlanta, Kevin Owens attacked his good friend Cody Rhodes in the parking lot near Cody’s bus.

On the WWE SmackDown episode following Bad Blood, Kevin Owens tried to do a promo to explain his actions, but his microphone was turned off because what he did at Bad Blood was considered an unprofessional act. Later in the show, Owens was seen beating up another of his former good friends, Randy Orton. When Smackdown GM Nick Aldis saw it, he called for help and Owens took off.

For the past several months, Orton and Owens had a close friendship that saw them fight beside Cody Rhodes against The Bloodline. Owens also tagged with Orton several times as well in regular tag team matches.

Kevin Owens went on social media to post a video where he claims he sent the company a video explaining his assault on Cody Rhodes but they chose not to air it. Owens went on to say he’s given WWE until the end of SmackDown to air his side of the story or he’ll be forced to take matters into his own hands.

Randy Orton is part of the WWE live event tour across Europe this week and the company posted this warning from Orton to Owens.

“Hey Owens, once I get back to the States, once I get back across the pond. I am coming for ya. And I’m whippin’ your a**. You got one coming.”

Kevin Owens Likely Remaining With WWE For Many More Years

For the past decade, Kevin Owens has been a WWE superstar who has carved out a great career for himself as a main event level performer who is a former Universal Champion, Tag Team Champion, Intercontinental Champion, and United States Champion among other things. Owens has also headlined WrestleMania twice.

While plenty of big-name superstars have re-signed with WWE this year like Drew McIntyre, Seth Rollins, Rhea Ripley, and Finn Balor, the company also watched Ricochet walk away to AEW rather than stay with WWE. Becky Lynch has been away for months after letting her contract expire.

It has been reported this week that Kevin Owens has agreed to a contract extension with WWE, but it may not officially be signed yet. That should lead to many more years of Owens causing chaos whether the fans love him or hate him.
