WWE Superstar Kevin Owens [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kevin-owens/] has been a top tier wrestler for a while now. He entered the main roster when he was at his peak as a performer. Owens was an NXT Champion when he came over to RAW, to face John Cena’s challenge. He recently sat down with WWE The Bump [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqIVmFaHA8BpOb_lzMtQpsOdNWGwkyAXG], and spoke about his dream matchup with NXT talent. “There’s obviously so many talented people in NXT that I’d love to wrestle on that stage. Some of them are my friends, others are guys I’ve seen wrestle and would love to just be in the ring with.” Owens acknowledged the immense amount of talent in the NXT today. “It’s really hard to pinpoint one because there are so many answers. If I were to go with…I would love for Johnny Gargano to show up.” KEVIN OWENS WANTS TO FIGHT JOHNNY GARGANO Kevin spoke about a time in 2013, when he was being scouted to be pushed up to the main roster in RAW or Smackdown. He was fighting Johnny Gargano [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/johnny-gargano/], who was his pick from NXT. They both reportedly had an intense match, both extremely skilled in their craft. Owens looked back fondly at the match, reminiscing on how great the bout was, for himself and the fans alike. “We really rocked. We had a great match. It was really enjoyable, the fans loved it, I really loved it, it was my first time wrestling Johnny.” Kevin picked Johnny as the superstar that he would want to battle in the ring. This is not only because Gargano is a talented performer, but also because Kevin and Johnny have excellent chemistry.

I would have Malcolm Bivens as his manager. He would deserve to be on a stage like RAW” Kevin Owens is a perfect example of NXT talent making it big in the WWE. He has comfortably transitioned from NXT to being a top tier performer on the main rosters. It is safe to say that Kevin will stay at the top, as long as he is physically able.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Kevin Owens 2022: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Kevin Yanick Steen, better known to the WWE Universe as Kevin Owens, is a professional wrestler from Quebec, Canada, currently signed to the Raw brand of the WWE. Owens is widely regarded as one of the best talents of the modern era with his fan following almost assuming a cult status.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Coming from a humble background, Owens had to cut his teeth on the independent circuit before even dreaming of the bright lights of WWE. However, such was his dedication, that despite not knowing a word of English as a child due to his native language being French, he watched episodes of Raw to learn the language. Contrast that with today when he is considered one of the best talkers in all of sports entertainment.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">Kevin began his career with the ring name Kevin Steen which gave him widespread popularity in the independent circuit. Along with his best friend Sami Zayn, he dominated the rosters of Ring of Honor and Pro Wrestling Guerilla. He began his career in the year 2000 at the young age of 16.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">After years of dedication and hard work, WWE came calling. He was signed to the developmental brand of NXT in 2014. Owens is regarded as one of the cornerstones of modern NXT that converted the once redundant brand into a global force to reckon with.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">His run in NXT reached its zenith after he betrayed his long time friend Sami Zayn in pursuit of the NXT Championship. Owens became the Champion after an iconic rivalry with his fellow Canadian that kickstarted a heel run that took Owens to the stratosphere.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">In fact, his main roster debut came even while he was still the NXT Champion. He answered the US Open challenge of the legendary John Cena and went on to defeat him for the United States Championship, something that shocked everyone and instantly made Owens a bonafide star.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">Owens would lose his NXT Championship after a great feud with Fin Balor, completely transitioning to the main roster.

<p style="text-align: center">Kevin Owens had a career-defining rivalry with authority figure Shane McMahon.
