10 Best Times Wrestlers Responded To Fans During Matches

10. Kevin Owens Steals A Kid's Title Belt

Kevin Owens, please never change.

When looking at the players in the pro wrestling game these days, few make the most of their minutes quite like KO. He may not be used as the main event ass-kicking Prizefighter as much as most would like, but Owens will forever make the best of whatever situation he finds himself in.

One such moment of brilliance from the Canadian, came during the WWE Supershow live event from Saginaw, Michigan's Dow Event Center this past 11 December.

There, the former Universal Champion found himself in one-on-one action against then-WWE Champion Big E. While Owens came out on the losing side on that December night, he did get to have one fantastic piece of interaction with a fan.

Down and out after a beating from E, a broken KO was slumped on the ringside barricade, where he'd spot a young fan with their own replica title. Ever the opportunist, Owens stole said title and held it aloft as his own - in a moment that this kid will likely never forget.
