Vince McMahon had an unhappy relationship with Kevin Owens after WrestleMania 33
Speaking to talkSPORT, Jericho revealed what Vince McMahon thought of Kevin Owens following their match at WrestleMania 33. Kevin Owens was supposed to main event WrestleMania but lost his championship to Goldberg at the Fastlane PPV. All thanks to Chris Jericho, who accepted Goldberg’s challenge on behalf of Kevin Owens.
This led to their match at WrestleMania 33. Unfortunately, Owens could not main event WrestleMania anymore after losing his title. Perhaps Vince McMahon is the reason behind it.

Jericho thinks Vince said this because he wanted Kevin Owens to lose his weight, or perhaps he wasn’t happy with his work as a heel. However, Jericho later praised Owens and claimed him to be a unique performer, irrespective of his weight and size.
