Kevin Owens is currently signed to the RAW brand. After making his name on the independent scene, Owens made his way to WWE NXT in 2014. In NXT, Owens turned heel on his longtime friend Sami Zayn, and the duo had a heated feud over the NXT title. Owens eventually defeated Zayn to win his only NXT title. KO lost the NXT title to Finn Balor at The Beast In The East event in Tokyo, after holding the belt for 143 days.
Around a year after he made his way to the main roster, Kevin Owens won the Universal title on an episode of WWE RAW. The victory came in the wake of Triple H's betrayal of Seth Rollins.

Abhilash Mendhe is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda with nearly five years of experience. He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
