#2 LIKES - Kevin Owens

If you haven't noticed, Vince McMahon is a huge fan of Kevin Owens. Owens debuted on the main roster while still NXT Champion and beat John Cena in his first main roster match.

Owens has also been put over by Vince on WWE television more than once and gets a lot more freedom on the mic than a lot of WWE Superstars. Vince himself reintroduced KO on his recent return from injury if you still had any doubts about Vince loving Owens.

Not to mention, KO is a former WWE Universal Champion, Intercontinental Champion and United States Champion.

#2 NOT A FAN OF - Sami Zayn

Unlike Kevin Owens, Vince McMahon isn't as big a fan of Sami Zayn. Zayn is another Superstar who was really popular in NXT but just hasn't had the chance to sink his teeth into too much on the main roster.

Zayn hasn't gotten a lot of storylines to work with but he never disappoints inside the ring. Zayn's biggest main roster storyline had to be teaming up with Kevin Owens against Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan in the lead up to WrestleMania 34. Zayn is currently out after undergoing surgery last year.
