10 WWE Stars More Interesting On Social Media Than TV

5. Kevin Owens

Admittedly, WWE do a better job of putting across how much of a wind-up merchant Kevin Owens is every week on SmackDown than they do for some others. It's still not enough.

When left to his own devices and not scripted too heavily, Owens is that keyboard warrior from those wrestling forums of your youth. You know the ones, and you probably haven't forgotten how mad they made you by constantly chiming in with their own, unwanted opinion at the worst times or laughing at every typo in sight.

That's KO on social media. He's the cyber-bully everyone loves to hate, and he does it all with tongue firmly planted in cheek. Just look at his persistent jokey burials of John Cena on Twitter or his wise-cracks when fans show support for proof.

Owens is, quite obviously, only having a laugh. His main Twitter profile picture shows him pulling the same face as the grumpy cat meme, and it's more of this mix of childish humour and bully-boy behaviour his WWE character needs.
