10 Surprising Things We Learned From 'WWE 365: Kevin Owens'

The documentary didn't explore in too much detail how he'd felt about taking the famous Spear/Jackhammer combo en route to losing his first ever Universal Title, but 'KO' heavily implied that he was capable of doing things a great deal differently with Bill Goldberg.

An unapologetic WWE fan as a child, Owens spoke frankly of wanting more than just the 22 seconds he received with WCW icon Big Bill at February's Fastlane pay-per-view. He was diplomatic enough to note how it was still a huge 'dream', but there seemed as sense of contrition as he spoke on their February scuffle.

That the match followed a period of his career (and section of the profile) he genuinely seemed to enjoy, a lack of deeper insight from Owens on the matter suggested either Kevin himself didn't want to speak negatively of the Goldberg angle, or Network heads cut out any ill-will.

Owens maximised his minutes out there at the time too, but it wasn't dwelled upon as the feature moved on to the most pivotal section of the piece.
