There are plenty of options for Kevin Owens moving forward
#3. Kevin Owens' heel turn could lead to Adam Pearce's official in-ring return

Adam Pearce and Kevin Owens
At Royal Rumble, Roman Reigns made a dominant statement with his win over Kevin Owens. But, the reigning Universal Champion was initially set to welcome back Adam Pearce to in-ring competition for the first time in years. While the WWE Universe seemed quite confused with the decision to have Pearce challenge for the Universal Title, the fans who were familiar with his work were all in for another run for Scrap Daddy.
Instead, Pearce would go on to use his authority powers and made sure Kevin Owens received another shot at the Universal Title. And, with Owens now failing to win the world title off The Tribal Chief, this sets up the perfect scenario for him to turn heel, and he could do so by attacking Adam Pearce.
Kevin Owens' actions could lead to WWE finally letting Adam Pearce return to the ring and that would also give KO quite a meaningful feud on the Road To WrestleMania 37. The two men could face off at the Fastlane pay-per-view but obviously, a good choice would be to have KO face Pearce at The Grandest Stage of Them All.
