Ever since Vince McMahon retired back in July WWE has been going through some changes, and Kevin Owens seems to be benefiting. Owens has gone through a character change that has seemingly seen him revert to his old Prizefighter gimmick. The former Universal Champion has been much more aggressive in recent weeks, but has taken on more of a babyface role.
PWInsider is now reporting that Kevin Owens has officially been moved to the babyface side of the Monday Night Raw roster. Even though Owens’ character has been moving in that direction for some time now WWE still had him listed as a heel internally until this week.
This week Kevin Owens confronted Austin Theory on Monday Night Raw and they got into a heated confrontation which led to KO slapping Theory in the face. The two Raw stars ended up brawling while WWE officials tried to separate them and Theory got away as Owens tried to hit him with the Stunner.
One way or another it seems that the feud between Kevin Owens and Austin Theory is far from over as WWE has announced that they will face off next week on Raw. Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
