Sanchez has over six years of pro-wrestling news writing experience, covering the biggest news stories in WWE, NXT, AEW, TNA Wrestling and more. He has personally interviewed a number of top stars, producing exclusive content with the likes of AEW's Swerve Strickland and WWE's Nick Aldis.

WWE star Kevin Owens has commented on three members of the company’s talent relations team, believing that they don’t get nearly enough recognition.

The latest “TKO Spotlight” video shared to social media featured WWE Vice President, Talent Relations John Cone, Senior Manager, Talent Relations Aggie Dent and Director, Talent Relations Zachary Maxwell, discussing their roles within the company.

Kevin Owens took to Twitter to comment on the featured trio, stating that he is grateful for them all, and that they have went out of their ways to help him and his family.

Believing they deserve more recognition, Owens said:

John, Zach and Aggie are some of the best people I’ve met in my 26 years in wrestling. They don’t get nearly enough recognition for what they do for all the men and women you see on WWE television every week.

It’s unfortunate to see some folks go after them for decisions that have absolutely nothing to do with them.

To the contrary, these 3 go above and beyond every week to help your favorite wrestler any way they can.

Each of them has gone out of their way multiple times for me and my family and I can’t overstate how grateful I am to have them as colleagues.

Kevin Owens has been out of action for over a year, having last appeared on WWE TV in March to announce that he had suffered a neck injury which would require fusion surgery.

Owens teased that he was preparing for a comeback in November, sharing a video of him training at the WWE Performance Center. 

Kevin Owens has yet to return to the ring, with his most recent bout seeing him defeat Sami Zayn in an Unsanctioned Match at Elimination Chamber 2025.

With Owens still making appearances for the company, featured in WWE 2K26 promotional videos and attending a Royal Rumble watch party, it’s clear that the company still values him, even in roles away from the ring.

We will continue to provide updates on Kevin Owens’ status as they become available, and continue to wish him as safe and healthy recovery.
