WWE veteran bashed Kevin Owens for putting his body on the line at WWE Elimination Chamber
Kevin Owens was last seen in action at Elimination Chamber in Toronto, where he took on Sami Zayn in an Unsanctioned Match. The duo took each other to their limits. with The Prizefighter coming out on the top. Zayn was declared injured after the match and has not been seen on WWE programming ever since. KO is also set to join his real-life best friend on the shelf.
Wrestling veteran Vince Russo pointed out that Owens and Zayn did not need to wrestle an extreme match a few weeks before WrestleMania. The former WWE writer noted that back in the day, wrestlers used to protect themselves before big shows such as WrestleMania.
"Here’s what I don’t understand. We know we are going into the biggest show of the year, WrestleMania. Back in the day, when there was a big show coming up, the guys would be extra careful, and they made sure they didn’t f each other up or f themselves up for the big show. Look what happens. What does Kevin Owens do? He and Sami Zayn both F themselves up at Elimination Chamber, and neither one is gonna be on WrestleMania. Are you morons?" he said.
Owens had been doing great work since turning heel. He had stellar matches against Sami Zayna and Cody Rhodes and had been involved in an enthralling feud with Randy Orton. However, it seems like the two will have to wait to get their hands on each other.
