Stone Cold Steve Austin had his breakout moment in WWE when he cut the famous Austin 3:16 promo, and it's said that entire monologue was the brainchild of Steve Austin himself.

If Kevin Owens is going to get over as the next mega, rebellious babyface in WWE, the company should stay far away from handing him overly scripted promos.

When WWE hands carefully written scripts to talents, the result confines the talent to the character which WWE is trying to create, as opposed to allowing the character to organically grow from the talent himself.

When WWE attempted to build John Cena as the next Rock, following Cena's successful Dr. of Thuganomics character, the fans rejected it as it felt unnatural and "corporate."

It's often said that characters like The Rock and Steve Austin were just Dwayne Johnson and Steve Austin with the volume turned up, so here's to hoping WWE hands Kevin Owens a live mic, and simply turns the volume up.
