10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About Kevin Owens
6. He Once KO'd A Drunk Fan
Make no mistake, the KO seen duking it out on Raw and SmackDown today is a far cry from the one who made a living out of battering and bruising his rivals in the likes of Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, Combat Zone Wrestling, and Ring of Honor.
But his brutality didn't always stay within the walls of a traditional or non-traditional throwdown with his colleagues, as it goes. In an act that WWE most definitely won't be reliving on their programming at any point soon, during a bout on an IWS show in Montreal, then then-Steen found himself being heckled by some fans in attendance to the point of inviting the cocky attendee into the ring.
Instead of the loudest mouth watching on stepping into the ring, though, his pal beside him took up the challenge and subsequently ate a boot from Steen before quickly being escorted from the ring.
Ever the soft soul at heart, Owens would later recount that upon rewatching the footage he realised the dude was probably too drunk to do any real harm on the night and likely just assumed he was gleefully about to become part of the show.
Not taking any chances, however, Owens disposed of the rogue fan and soon got back to business.
