16 Thing We Learned From Kevin Owens On Talk Is Jericho

7. "You Shouldn't Get Your Hopes Up."

Once again discussing what a huge move it was to pack up his family and move to Florida, Owens says that he was told "We want to hire you but we were told to tell you that you shouldn't get your hopes up in terms of Raw and SmackDown and even NXT television. You'll be given a fair chance just like everyone else, but you're not really the typical..." Jericho then talks about how there's an obvious prejudice because Vince McMahon has a certain look that he prefers, and Kevin agrees while saying he thinks it was also a way to make sure that he had his head on straight. He appreciates that they made sure he knew he was taking a chance.
