10 Best One-Liners From WWE Raw This Week (Aug 8)

10. "I'm Just Giving Him Encouragement"

After last week appearing on the commentary team, this week Kevin Owens was a little closer to the action as he made his way to ringside to support his new best bud, Chris Jericho.

But he didn’t let the lack of a headset stop him from getting a word in edgeways.

With Jericho laying a beating on his opponent for the night, Enzo Amore, Owens saw it necessary to turn the tables on the “hip hop hobbit” and ask him how he was doing. Keen to retain order, referee Chad Patton stepped in to remind Owens to keep his distance, prompting the culprit to suggest he was simply offering Enzo some words of encouragement.

Not necessarily the most uproarious of comments, but it was yet another of Owens’ trademark wisecracks that helps make his character such an effective heel.

And with the Jeri-KO tandem now seemingly becoming a rather more permanent fixture, we can expect plenty more of this kind of banter in the coming weeks and months.
