Since his attack on Cody Rhodes after WWE Bad Blood went off-air, Kevin Owens has been on the top of his game. The Prizefighter has eventually taken out both Randy Orton and The American Nightmare with piledrivers, making headlines all around the world.

Owens faced Cody Rhodes in a singles match at Saturday Night's Main Event, which he lost. Following the battle, The Prizefighter unleashed a brutal assault on the champion and walked out with the iconic Winged Eagle Title.

Since then, Kevin Owens has been fashioning the WWE title, addressing himself as the 'true' champion, while Rhodes has been out of action. However, The American Nightmare surprised the world with his return at a recent live event in Jacksonville, when he defeated the 40-year-old star in a Steel Cage Match for the Undisputed WWE Championship.

During the event, the announcer introduced Owens as the "true, rightful" WWE Champion. Not only that, but he also called Owens The Canadian Dream, taking a shot at The American Dream Dusty Rhodes, before the star asked him to get out of the ring, portraying his heel character.

Will Kevin Owens confront Cody Rhodes on WWE RAW's debut on Netflix?

The red brand's debut on Netflix is right around the corner, and several top stars are advertised to make their presence felt on the show. Among the stars advertised, Cody Rhodes is also slated to appear. However, his rival, Kevin Owens, is seemingly not scheduled to make an appearance on the historic episode.

With WrestleMania just a few months away, The Prizefighter might be looking for a massive feud heading into the show. The WWE Universe has been anticipating a match between Owens and Sami Zayn, with the former taking his wrath on Zayn for teaming up with Roman Reigns. Time will tell what the Stamford-based company has in store for The Prizefighter.
