Kevin Owens: Stephanie McMahon Has Been Nothing But Amazing To Me, I Was Happy To See Her At Shows
Stephanie McMahon took a leave of absence from WWE in May 2022, but returned in July to assume the position of Co-CEO following Vince McMahon retiring amid sexual misconduct and hush money allegations.
Vince returned to the WWE board in January and Stephanie announced her resignation on January 10.
Speaking to Nick Talbot of the San Antonio Express, Kevin Owens commented on Stephanie stepping down.
“(Stephanie) has been nothing but amazing to me my entire time here. And 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,” he said.
With Vince returning, WWE is exploring options regarding a potential sale of the company.
Owens said about a potential WWE sale, “The internet will say what the internet will say, and then the reality will be what really matters. We just care about what we do in the ring. That’s what we try to do our best at.”
Comcast, Fox, Netflix, Amazon, Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery, and more have been listed as potential suitors to purchase WWE. WWE has stated they do not intend to comment further until the process has concluded or the Company has otherwise determined that further disclosure is appropriate or required.
Owens is set to challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WWE Royal Rumble. Fans can check out the current lineup for the event by clicking here.
