Heyman, who has become a legendary manager throughout his WWE career, faulted Owens for his recent failures. He said that even though he believes Owens could be a first-ballot Hall of Famer, his own ambitions have anchored him down. As Roman Reigns’ special counsel, Heyman has watched closely as Owens has failed to defeat Reigns.
Heyman reflected on Owens’ unsuccessful pursuit of Reigns’ title on the latest episode of Talking Smack, a post-show for WWE Friday Night SmackDown. Heyman is a co-host of the program.
Paul Heyman clearly hopes to see Reigns move on from Owens and defend his title against other opponents. As the champion’s manager, it makes sense why Heyman wants to see Reigns build a formidable track record as the WWE Universal Champion.
Paul Heyman says Kevin Owens is like a cockroach
Paul Heyman further berated Kevin Owens, who recently lost to Roman Reigns in Steel Cage Match. “The Advocate” compared “The Prizefighter” to a cockroach. Heyman gave some credit to Owens’ tenacity, but he also stated that his grit will bring him down.
Owens put up a tough fight when he challenged Reigns at WWE TLC, and he followed that up with another impressive effort in a rematch on WWE SmackDown. But thanks to Jey Uso’s help, Reigns emerged victorious in both matches. Given Owens’ losses, it’s easy to understand what Paul Heyman is saying.
