Kevin Owens comments on Stephanie McMahon‘s resignation.
Stephanie was named the co-CEO and chairwoman of WWE after Vince McMahon retired amid a WWE board investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct and hush money on July 22, 2022. Vince later returned to the WWE board of directors on January 6, and he was voted the Executive Chairman on January 10. That same day, Stephanie announced her resignation from WWE.
Speaking with Nick Talbot of the San Antonio Express-News, Owens shared his thoughts on Stephanie’s resignation and emphasized she has been “nothing but amazing” to him.
“(Stephanie) has been nothing but amazing to me my entire time here,” Owens said. “I was so happy to see her more at the shows and get to be around her and get to work for her. Everybody’s also kind of happy that she gets to take this time for herself.”
Owens also looked back on his decision to re-sign with WWE, which came a few months before he faced “Stone Cold” Steve Austin at WWE WrestleMania 38. He noted that facing the Hall of Famer seemed unfathomable at the time.
“It’s just such an unbelievable situation,” Owens said. “You know, it’s not something that was fathomable, even at the time when I re-signed. I could have never guessed that a few months later, I’d be wrestling Stone Cold in the main event of WrestleMania. It just goes to show that you can never know what to expect here.”
Owens will challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WWE Royal Rumble.
The Miz recently commented on Stephanie’s resignation and recalled how she greenlit “The Dirt Sheet”. Check out his comments here.
