Report: Kevin Owens Working Without A Script On WWE SmackDown Live
Uncharted waters for a WWE Superstar these days...
Jul 19, 2019
Kevin Owens has been making all kinds of headlines on SmackDown Live over the last couple of weeks as he has taken the sentiments of the watching WWE Universe and made it a part of the show.
While the former Universal Champion's comments have seen him become arguably the biggest babyface on the blue brand in double-quick speed, it appears there is more than meets the eye with that he's been saying.
A report from
Sports Illustratedclaims KO has been working without a script, instead working off bullet points like the WWE Superstars of yesteryear in what is an unbelievable show of faith from Vince McMahon et al in The Prizefighter's skills.
"Like Jericho (at AEW Fight For The Fallen), Owens is also working without a script,
Sports Illustratedhas learned.
"He is working off bullet points, but it is a move by WWE that shows tremendous faith in Owens. An unscripted Owens is the performer that WWE desperately needs. He knows how to evoke emotion from the crowd, which he has done on the main roster since his debut program with John Cena. Somewhere along the way, Owens’ upward mobility was severely hampered by creative. But WWE is finally giving a chance to Owens, who is one of the best wrestlers in the world, with a shot at jumping to the top of the card."
