While Kevin Owens is a former WWE Universal Champion, he has yet to hold the WWE Championship during his WWE career.

Kevin Owens has been on and off of WWE television since defeating Seth Rollins at WrestleMania in April. Firstly due to an ankle injury suffered at the event and then due concerns about safety during the ongoing worldwide pandemic. This has caused KO to lose a bit of momentum on Monday Night RAW in recent months.

However, a program against the current WWE Champion Drew McIntyre, heading into SummerSlam, would be the perfect way for Kevin Owens to propel back into the main event scene.

Kevin Owens and Drew McIntyre have only competed against each other a handful of times in WWE. This match pitting two fan favourites against one and other would be a WWE Championship match fitting for an event with the stature of SummerSlam.

Some fans were disappointed to see Seth Rollins get a WWE Championship opportunity against Drew McIntyre post-WrestleMania as Kevin Owens was the one who defeated The Monday Night Messiah at WrestleMania 36.

However, SummerSlam could be the perfect event to see this fresh pairing of Drew McIntyre vs Kevin Owens, and also grant KO the WWE Championship opportunity that many fans believe that he deserves.
