Elias And Kevin Owens Generate Extended Heat After Ripping On Seattle For Not Having An NBA Team

If there’s one way to generate heat in Seattle, it’s by ripping on the city for not having a NBA team.

Kevin Owens and Elias knew what they were doing on Raw when they brought up Seattle and their lack of a professional hoops squad.

Fellow WWE superstars took notice of the crowd reaction following Elias’ comment. You can view the entire segment in the video above.

Seattle had a basketball team up until 2008 when the team was moved to Oklahoma City. The Supersonics won one NBA Championship during their time in Seattle.

Even though Seattle no longer has a NBA team, their WNBA team is doing very well. The Storm just won the WNBA Championship and were gifted a custom WWE Title from Triple H.
