Speaking on WWE's The Bump, Booker T said that Kevin Owens has always been the individual who can put in great in-ring work.

Talking about who he thinks will win at Royal Rumble, Booker T said that Reigns vs. Owens is a match he is really looking forward to.
'' I’m a Roman Reigns guy. But look at that photo of Kevin Owens. That’s a different Kevin Owens right there. You picture him for a year-and-a-half, two years ago, and that guy has gotten into better shape. The thing is, it’s been gratuitous. Kevin Owens has always been that guy that can go to the ring and go all night.''
