Kevin Owens was neither 'Prizefighter' nor capable of a match-winning 'KO' during his appalling 2018 programme with Braun Strowman. He wasn't supposed to be - he was dead f*cking weight to Vince McMahon by then.

Mercilessly stalked and bullied by the 'Monster Among Men', Owens ran and ran and Braun caught and caught and various forms of HA-HA-HAlarious abuse followed. All because the former Universal Champion and tried to defeat him in a Money In The Bank ladder match along with all the other combatants chasing the golden ticket.

Half a year or so removed from Owens headbutting the Chairman and looking like the biggest star in the company, he was back on this bullsh*t - or not even bullsh*t, but the blue stuff they put in toilets to try and cope with all the bullsh*t. This is what it had come to in the story as it already has done in this entry. Toilet humour. Kevin Owens was toilet humour. But it wasn't funny, so it wasn't humour. Kevin Owens was toilet.

Let's start again.

In 2018, Kevin Owens was toilet.
