Kevin Owens won the WWE Universal Championship on RAW after defeating Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Big Cass. Owens has reached the pinnacle of his professional wrestling career after over 16 years in the business. You can imagine there was a ton of emotion after he won the title as he entered the backstage curtain. In a recent interview with the Toronto Sun, Owens shares an emotional moment.
Owens says he shared am emotional moment with someone backstage after winning the title but he doesn’t want to say who:
“There were a couple of people. The first one, I don’t want to just say who it is, but I think people can figure it out. It was very emotional because in a lot of ways, we both achieved this. I don’t know how to describe that. It’s our title, in a way, if that makes any sense” (Source: Toronto Sun).
You probably have figured out that he is talking about his longtime friend (and rival) Sami Zayn. The duo have wrestled together for over a decade and are both from Montreal. They have had some incredible matches against each other and have done a great job maintaining kayfabe during their time in WWE.

Awesome hearing stuff like this. I personally can’t wait to see the WWE 24 special on these two one day.
I apologize for ruining anyone’s kayfabe!
