What's the story?

Kevin Owens is expected to make his return to WWE next month, which is a few weeks sooner than originally advertised because the former Universal Champion could have a WrestleMania match in store.

In case you didn't know...

Kevin Owens has been out of action since the week following Super Show-Down where he underwent double knee surgery and he has since been rehabbing in the months that have followed.

Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens have both been out of action for the past few months after the duo were both forced to undergo surgery for interesting injuries that they both needed after years of abuse on their bodies.

The heart of the matter

Kevin Owens announced this week on Raw that he would be making his return in March and it is being reported by Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer that his return has been pushed forward because WWE could be planning a huge WrestleMania match for him.

“Kevin was originally going to start back in April and based on the vignette when they said a month I guess that means March which means that he might get on WrestleMania, but you know maybe they’re going to bring in Earl Anthony to feud with him,” he said via Ringsidenews.

What's next?

Kevin Owens hasn't been in the ring for a number of months but it appears that he could be stepping into a huge feud when he makes his return to the ring next month. Owens is a former Universal Champion and it appears that he could be looking to be pushed to the main event picture upon his return.
