WWE Raw: 10 Things You Might Have Missed (Dec 26)
2. Kevin Owens Telling Roman Reigns The Fans Think He Sucks
There are few who can talk smack mid-match in WWE like Kevin Owens does. An expert at providing running commentary on his bouts, the reigning Universal Champion was it again this week during a match against Roman Reigns. It must have been difficult for Reigns not to laugh at this one.
Keeping Roman at bay with a headlock, Owens took the time to let his rival know what all his detractors were thinking. At the time, fans were going back and forth with some 'Let's Go Roman' and 'Roman Sucks' chants. Seizing the opportunity, KO said that Reigns may not be able to hear what they were saying, but the people were telling him he sucked.
This provided the headline match with some comedy relief, yet somehow didn't take away from the animosity rife between both men. That takes true skill from Kevin Owens, it's hard to make humour work in a main event setting.
It seems like a week can't go by without some great heel work from Owens, and this was yet another example of that.
