A WWE "rookie" like Kevin Owens is still very unknown to a lot of WWE fans, but if you watched him in Ring of Honor or other indy promotions then you know he's a gifted all around performer. It was great that WWE signed him because he deserves to be working there. Remember Rhyno? That's who Owens is very similar to at least in terms of his body type. Owens might be a little bit taller than Rhyno was, but they would be booked the same way. What Owens has over Rhyno is an ability to talk. Rhyno was limited in that area while Owens is gifted. When you give a guy that combination of being an absolute physical force plus the ability to deliver great promos, that is a character that you know Heyman would love to have on his shows. Any time Owens got into a feud with somebody, he always had an ability to make it feel personal. He knows how to show the right emotions at all time. That's something Heyman would take advantage of because Owens wouldn't have to be in the title picture a lot. All he needs is a reason to feud with somebody and he can make it great. He's done it many times before. We're seeing it happen in NXT with Sami Zayn too. Owens is the kind of guy Heyman would probably love to book. No doubt about that.
