Real Reason THIS Top WWE Star Doesn't Chase Titles Anymore

[@lylaznboi01]

Kevin Owens achieved a lot within his WWE career. The personality that he has outside of the ring, I'm not surprised he has a more relaxed approach when it comes to title runs. He doesn't mind doing them if creative wants to put a title on him. He would do the best that he can to help elevate that title. Owens is a grand slam champion, had a lot of memorable moments in WWE, he main evented Wrestlemania twice, one with Stone Cold Steve Austin and another in a tag team match with his best friend, Sami Zayn, vs the Usos. He's just having fun at work and getting paid for it.

[@bobbank2741]

This will always be the episode that Andy presented with special guest squeaky chair

[@Orlando-oc8ee]

Kevin Owens is also doing wrestling a service by not doing so. It allows the development of wrestlers and their statuses as the role he would usually take as a champ is being used on a younger guy now. Owens is smart and one of the most commendable guys in wrestling not taking title positions from the future guys.

El Generico trained Sami, they arent the same person. Generico unfortunately passed away in an orphanage fire, saving the children

[@bigsouth5773]

BRO!!! thank you and they call this the new PFFT!!!!

[@williambishop1521]

Thats what I thought. They need a redaction.

[@thatoneguy1987]

He did not die. He saved all the kids then went to live on the mountains

[@scotteven782]

That would be incorrect. Sami and El Generico are one in the same.

[@bigsouth5773]

@@scotteven782 How do u confuse a a Mexican icon and Hero to orphans everywhere like Generico. With a pasty ginger Canadian. Not even close. Even Owens himself WHALED at the sky in true pain when his life long partner and Rival passed away in such a awful yet HEROIC way. Even Kenny Omega said in a resent twitch stream. The Generico was one of his favorite people to go to battle with and he was truly sad that Generico passed away but he got to know a true hero and he wouldn't have wanted to go any other way the saving those poor poor sweet Orphans. His sacfice should b honored not tarnished by mixing him up with a Pasty white Canadian guy. Come on man GESH!!!!! :D

[@1234_Flux]

I remember when Kevin Owens used to call himself a prize fighter

[@badonkeykong7506]

Pretty sure even when KO decides to step out of the ring he'll have options in the industry, either as a trainer or on commentary, which is something he's alluded to wanting to shift into. Which I really like his matter of fact, inside baseball style of commentary.

Big Swerve.... Jey Uso is secretly the tribal chief

[@HZWY_Records]

Somehow this makes sense, kick jimmy out the group? Yh

[@MaskedLongplayer]

@@HZWY_Records No it doesn't. Jey is very over and is primed to be a babyface for a long period by now, and Jimmy is just a loser/chickensh@t heel purged from the group of dominant heels. Looks pretty simple to me.

[@Loki_Firegod]

I gotta be honest, I didn't like KO at first. Dunno why, but it just didn't click really. But the last few years he got more and more funny and meta. Calling out (stupid) wrestling tropes or rather, calling out other wrestlers for not adhering to them - it's brilliant. Him and Randy are a great team too, I love to see that side of RKO as well. Yes I know, at some point they'll propably turn on each other, but I'm gonna enjoy the ride (and if they keep it up, all the better).

[@Steven-og5qx]

Great video whatculture

[@rayjacobs8472]

I love the bloodline story and how a younger group coming in and raking control and see what happens with rock and Roman and ect. I'm excited to see what WWE does with Jacob Fatu.

[@anumbus]

Why are you assuming Roman and Jimmy are automatically going to come back as faces? What if they come back and form a massive Bullet Club sized Bloodline that splits up and rip apart Raw and Smackdown.

[@vickicarver56]

They will both come back as heels

[@scotteven782]

Vince should just allow all the members of Bullet Club to assemble. Like the Avengers assemble.

[@anumbus]

@@scotteven782 ummm, you do know Vince doesn't have anything to do with WWE anymore...

[@princessluna8411]

i wanna see R-KO have a tag title run they are a comedic duo and is class

[@ryanwaslawski6088]

I think they might wait awhile to debut Fatu. I think the USOs will get back together and then Leo Tonga (hikeleo) tipping the scales considerably back in the new bloodlines favor. Then Roman comes back evening the odds a bit and that’s when Jacob debuts. So then they beef back and forth til war games where we see some crazy shit like jey convincing Sami and KO to join forces with Roman lol.

[@kyletucker3811]

Yeah, I feel like it's going to be OG Bloodline vs a New Bloodline in Solo, Tama Tonga, Taga Loa, Hikuleo, and maybe Rock with Jacob joining the OG.

[@Demonslayer0791]

Thank you Andy! Your the mvp. We appreciate all you do!

[@FSM_Inferno]

Kevin is kinda in the same boat Rollins was before the world heavyweight title became a thing. He goes out, does his job, created moments, but deserves a good long title reign

[@Bboy20clo]

I was so over the bloodline and just like that they got me back in cuz I watch NJPW too dang H is good!!

[@kyletucker3811]

And it's got a different feel than for example, NWO/NWO Wolfpack. Each version has a distinct feeling. This version is way more Mafia like, a silent menace. But the original was dripped in swag and bravado. I'd like to see that expanded on, maybe have the new squad do less run ins and just beat people down except for certain moments.

[@virgbarger]

Survivor Series Rock, Solo, and G.O.D. -VS- Roman, Usos, and Jacob

[@khesipresents1885]

HHH exclusively likes for survivor series to plaster damage ctrl and bloodline matches since 2022

[@pietermalan9876]

I love kevin owens he is the reason I got back into wrestling. He deserves a proper main roster title run

[@xRIPx86]

Alot of people your age didn't find KO unit his feud with John Cena..... saying that most people watch the indie scene is out of touch

[@pottsie_era]

that's how i knew of Kevin Owens i was 12 at the time and didn't know of the indies

[@TheGaara802]

Yeah i found out and ko thanks to the feud with Cena, tbh a lot of people don't even know any other company besides WWE so you're right that statement is really out of touch

[@auglicious]

It's nice to hear the honesty from Kevin Owens. Nice dude who does nice things for others!

[@pimpofmadison7755]

Maybe there’s gonna be 3 separate bloodline factions with solo and G.O.D and then Roman and the usos and then the rock has his own branch which is Jacob and hikuleo

[@UberGeekFanboy]

We have heard similar from multiple wrestlers over the years. Its the FANS that cry and demand that every wrestler should be a champion except the person that is the champion....😒😒

[@Vikingeek]

I kinda dig the current Bloodline stuff still, bringing in the new guys etc is all a good way of bringing in new talent - especially when its the well kept surprise. My only real gripe is how poorly they've covered Roman's absence. The guy has earned his time off, and I'm very excited for his eventual return - potentially as a babyface to "fix" the new direction the bloodline has gone in etc. But he was the pivotal part of the whole stable, and I feel he should've had a more impactful storyline exit rather than just "I leave the wiseman in charge"

[@htimSnaeS]

Andy is the hardest working man at WhatCulture, thank you for what you do sir.

[@rahulmcintyre2553]

Kevin Owens can Wrestle in his 60's. Stop with this retirement talks he will not quit until he is 60.

[@badonkeykong7506]

He's actually said otherwise, I don't think he wants to stay in the ring for many more years, but he does want to stay in the industry. I think a lot of the guys KO's age consider their long term health a bit more than older generations of wrestlers do, and want to put over younger wrestlers more, as well.

[@AWABPW]

I say this as a childhood Goldberg fan, KO shouldn't have lost to Goldberg

Kevin owens understands that at this point... he is a made guy... an attraction for the company. He knows he will have a job for as long as he wants.

[@fawfulmark2]

Well we know KO says he 100% has no plans on ever being the Intercontinental Champion ever again since he's equaled the total length of holding the Belt as his childhood hero Owen Hart so that's off the table. Other Gold could still be a thing, but it just doesn't sound like a high priority for him.

[@steveespinoza7469]

Really Kevin Owens should have been multiple time World Champion by now

I think Owens is doing himself a disservice by not winning titles, he's a talent that deserves it or at least has over the years.

[@seabeelt]

Really liking this new chapter for the bloodline. Do you think when Fatu joins the bloodline and when Roman and Jimmy comes back, They will build up to a Roman and Rock feud, as the Rock would be the one behind This new bloodline 2.0? and going after Roman saying you just dropped the ball and the head of the table is not supposed to fail? In which this will set up a program between Rock and Roman leading to a match at wrestlemania where the winner takes head of the table role.

[@kyletucker3811]

I'm enjoying the new Bloodline angle. Mostly because it feels completely different from the original vibes of the group. That was dripped in swagger and bravado, more Hip-Hop culture. This version has different feel. More gritty, almost mafia like. Though I don't wanna jusy call it New Bloodline. Thats a deathnail. Maybe MFT Mafia. Or just MFT.

[@the8ofustogether]

Yes loving the bloodline

[@rocketdive2001]

[@matthewhostetter8974]

Wow, Meltzer's New Japan "sources" didn't clue him in. It's almost like his creditability isn't what it use to be. I'm still curious what this means for Jacob Fatu unless he isn't going to become part of the Bloodline right away. Or maybe he'll join up on the Usos's side? Also, it seems Haku's placement in the Hall of Fame has more meaning than we knew. I wonder what Hikuleo's contract status is now? Could we get a full-on Guerrillas of Destiny takeover? Let's all take a moment to realize the founding members of the Bullet Club are now all in the WWE. Fenix is injured again... RESET THE COUNTER! Again
