Kevin Owens Wants Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania

Kevin Owens has had a very strong showing in WWE since winning the Intercontinental Championship and he’s a top heel in WWE. At TLC in two weeks, Owens defends the IC title against Dean Ambrose.

There is some speculation as to who Kevin Owens will be feuding with in 2016 and who his opponent will be at Wrestlemania 32. Sami Zayn’s return will provide the opportunity for their rivalry to continue on the grandest stage of them all.

Neville has said the following in an interview with talksport.com:

“I’ve got a lot of goals in this business – the current goal is the Intercontinental Championship. I can’t say who’ll be champion by the time Wrestlemania rolls around. If it is Kevin Owens, I’d the love the opportunity to do that. I’ve got a lot of history with Kevin.”

“We came up together through the business.I first competed against Kevin when I was 19 years old, in Orpington in Kent.

“So to do it at Wrestlemania for the Intercontinental championship would really be full circle and it would be the biggest match I could imagine.”

Owens recently appeared on the “Like Father Like Son“ podcast, and the topic was brought up to the current Intercontinental Champion. The full interview can be heard from Itunes right here. Below are the highlights:

Who does Owens want to face at WrestleMania:

“I’ve answered this question a couple of times and my answer is always Brock Lesnar, because I’d just love to be in the ring with him and see what it’s like. There’s nobody quite like Brock Lesnar, as far as pure strength and viciousness and everything. I’d love to see if I could hang with him and see how much I could hurt him.

Does his son still root for John Cena?:

“I think he was pretty split honestly. He’s always been a big John Cena fan, but all of a sudden he’s against his dad. I think he kind feels like he can’t cheer against me, but at the same time he wants me to do good, so I think he was pretty split down the middle and maybe a bit conflicted. But he’s met John, and he and John known each other. They have this little thing they share together.
