The current “Face Of America” & United States Champion, Kevin Owens, spoke with NOLA.com to promote Smackdown Live’s upcoming episode from New Orleans, LA which is the home of WrestleMania 34.
Here are the highlights:
Owens’s Thoughts On WrestleMania 34 Next Year:
“It’s weird because everything happened so fast. Even though I’ve already lived so many great things, I feel like it’s only the tip of the iceberg. I’d love to be involved in the WWE title match at WrestleMania 34 or at the very least be defending my United States championship. I have no intention of letting that go anytime soon.”
Being Creative With Ladders & Objects In The Upcoming MITB Ladder Match:
“I kind of live in the moment with that stuff. It rarely works out in my favor to be honest. A lot of times those contraptions come back to haunt me but, if I see an opportunity to do something unique and inflict pain on someone else, I’m always up for that, so who knows what I’ll pull off.”
His WrestleMania Dream Match:
“If you say past, it’s Shawn Michaels hands down. If you say present, Sami Zayn and I have had such a rich history, I feel like a one-on-one match at WrestleMania would be so perfect. But there’s also Finn Balor, he’s my best friend, he’s probably the one guy if I could sit across from in the ring at WrestleMania, that would make my career. Finn and I got to WWE at the same time and we dived into an unknown territory. We gravitated toward each other very quickly, he’s like a brother to me now.”
