No one has made as big of an impact this year as quickly as Kevin Owens has. In a matter of months, he went from decimating Sami Zayn for the NXT Championship to targeting top dog, John Cena. He's cooled off significantly since his loss to the former United States champion at Battleground, but he remains over with the audience, nonetheless.

Although heels don't sell nearly as much merchandise as babyfaces do, Owens is an exception to the rule. As soon as he made his main roster debut, WWE immediately put out three new shirts for him. As a matter of fact, a new one went up for sale this past weekend to celebrate his pending return to his hometown of Montreal.

As the story goes, Owens showed up to a video shoot shortly after signing with the company wearing a black shirt with his initials "KO" painted (yes, painted) on them. As simple as it was, it sparked his first official t-shirt, which became a phenomenon with the fans once he arrived in NXT last December.
