For Kevin Owens, 2024 is off to a strong start.
Kevin Owens made an appearance at NXT New Year's Evil on January 2. He interfered in the main even and cost Grayson Waller his match against Trick Williams.
In an NXT Exclusive, Kevin Owens was asked to discuss his motive for appearing on NXT and getting involved in the main event.
“I was watching at home, I don’t live too far from here, and once I saw that Grayson Waller was gonna be involved, I figured, what better what to start 2024 than by getting some payback for the broken hand? He and Theory broke my hand, and then I figured Theory might not be there, so great opportunity. Now 2024 is off to a great start, and Friday I make it better by beating Santos Escobar and moving on, winning the whole tournament, and then I go on to the Royal Rumble, beat Logan Paul, restore some sort of prestige to the US Title because he’s done a hell of a job bringing it way down. Then 2024, we’re rocking," Owens said.
As Owens noted, he will face Santos Escobar in the finals of the WWE United States Championship Tournament at SmackDown New Year's Evil. More information is available here.
