11 Reasons Why Kevin Owens Is WWE's Best Heel In Years

3. Selfish

But what makes Kevin Owens better than the majority of heels is that he€™s not your typical bully€”he€™s actually rather more complex than that. He frequently tells us that everything he does is to provide a better life for his family, which on the one hand is incredibly selfless. But beyond the parameters of his family, Owens is an rather more selfish individual. He€™s said before that he doesn€™t care about any of the WWE fans, and he proves that with certain psychological aspects that he scatters throughout his matches. For instance, when he defends his title in NXT, his first move is typically to flee to the outside of the ring. This is because he doesn€™t need to take the fight to his opponent to defend his NXT title€”the challenger is the one who is required to take the fight to the champion. In exiting the ring, Owens is saying that he doesn€™t care about putting on a show for the crowd, he just wants to retain his title. And given the premise of sports entertainment, that a fairly selfish approach. The dichotomy of striving to provide for his family certainly creates an interesting dynamic though; perhaps this selfish family-man gimmick is a revolutionary new form of heel?
