During the Talking Smack, Kevin Owens stated that he didn’t enjoyed his last run as Universal Champion but he gonna love every second of it if he wins title once again.
He also stated that if Roman Reigns doesn’t lose title to Cesaro or anyone else before he coming for it, then, he will take the title from the Head of the Table Roman Reigns. Here what Kevin Owens said:
“This is where I’ve changed because when I become Universal Champion again, I’m gonna love every second of it,” Owens said. “So, just know this, I’m telling you right now, if Roman Reigns doesn’t lose the title to Cesaro, and if he doesn’t lose it to someone else before I get to him again, I’m gonna take the title. Don’t forget about me. Don’t make the mistake to think I’m gone because I am not going anywhere. Questions?”
