Kevin Owens Returns To NXT For Sami Zayn Feud

WWE star could be targeting Zayn for WrestleMania.

Kevin Owens returned to NXT at the Milwaukee house show on Thursday night, in an angle which could indicate a WrestleMania direction with Sami Zayn. Owens confronted Zayn in the ring, slaying him on the mic with lines like "I've been the guy main eventing, while you're at home licking your little wounds. Vincent Kennedy McMahon probably doesn't even know who you are." The funny thing, Owens' line may have been a shoot on that one! McMahon rarely sits down to watch NXT, and Zayn's Raw appearance last year was just another night for the tireless seventy year old. "You are absolutely pathetic," Owens said when first getting in the ring, "you are a pathetic piece of trash." Zayn just stood there and took the verbal onslaught. Eventually, enough was enough, Zayn charged Owens with a Helluva Kick. That was enough to send the WWE Raw star tumbling to the outside, and also enough to potentially light the ignition on a WrestleMania feud. Both these men have a history, and it would make sense as a Mania undercard bout. Both are excellent wrestlers and would light up the card. Zayn had been due on the main roster last year, but injury curtailed WWE's plans. Maybe his rise to the top will happen in the next couple of months, culminating in the Mania match with his long time rival.
