Kevin Owens: “I Belong At The Top of WWE”

In less than two weeks, Kevin Owens will take part in a fatal-four way match for Intercontinental Championship at “Extreme Rules”. He’ll be facing Sami Zayn, Cesaro, and The Miz for the latter’s IC title at the event.

On Tuesday night, Kevin Owens took part in ESPN’s weekly segment on WWE “Off The Top Rope” and spoke about his career, NXT, and his current run on WWE television.

Did you feel any pressure going after John Cena on your first night on the main roster? 

“I wish I could say I did, but to be honest, and this may seem a little cocky. I guess that’s who I am. I felt very confident in my abilities. I felt that when I stepped into that ring with John Cena during my first night on Raw, that was exactly where I belonged. To me, I belong at the top regardless of how long I stayed in NXT before. Like you said, I’ve been doing this for sixteen years now. I thought there was no better way for me to kick things off on Raw and WWE than to go after John Cena. To me, it made perfect sense.”

Do you think Kevin Owens will be WWE World Heavyweight Champion in 2016?
