Last week, Kevin Owens seemingly debuted a new finisher. It's Steve Austin's old Stunner, for those who missed the online hullabaloo, and it appears this nod towards the past is here to stay for KO. Sign us up, because he needed another finisher to complement the Pop-Up Powerbomb anyway.

This week, KO referenced the change by saying, "the bottom line is, wink wink" when talking about taking Kofi Kingston's opportunity to become WWE Champ at Fastlane away. That was a nice, not-so-subtle nod that some still may have missed.
