Kevin Owens recalls how Juice Robinson broke his nose during his WWE debut
WWE recently posted a bonus clip of Kevin Owens’ WWE Chronicle episode on their YouTube channel. In the clip, Owens talks about his WWE debut and how he felt behind the scenes before her:
I remember that moment very specifically. Like, the song is playing, but nobody knows it’s my song. Even before that, like just before the show started, you know that they have the ‘So, now, forever’ graphic, I was watching. It really shook me because I had seen that chart so many times, and now I knew it would be on the show I was going to air. I just remember thinking, this is fifteen years, and now here we are, finally. Because it seemed like it took forever to get there, but at the same time, it’s probably exactly as it should be.
Kevin Owens went on to talk about his debut fight with Juice Robinson (CJ Parker) and how he broke his nose. KO also revealed that his broken nose led him to become close friends with the current NJPW star:
And then CJ Parker came and broke my nose. As a result, we became very close friends. In fact, I just texted him less than 20, 30 minutes ago saying that six years ago he broke my nose and stole my heart. H / T: WrestlingINC
Kevin Owens was recently in conflict with Roman Reigns on SmackDown. Unfortunately, the numbers game is proving too much for Owens, with Jey Uso constantly interfering in his struggles against Reigns. Uso was also involved in KO fights at TLC PPV and SmackDown last Friday, costing Owens the title in both fights.
We don’t know yet if Owens’ rivalry with Roman Reigns is over. Paul Heyman sent a message to Kevin Owens at Talking Smack this week. You can check this out ON HERE.
