Kevin Owens will keep on fighting in WWE for a few more years, as it was announced last Wednesday (December 15) that he had re-signed with WWE.
Owens’ deal with WWE was reportedly set to expire at the end of January 2022, with many fans speculating that he could end up in All Elite Wrestling (AEW).
AEW President Tony Khan recently spoke to Shakiel Mahjouri of CBS Sports, where he spoke about Owens re-signing with WWE. Khan admitted that he was interested in bringing in Owens.
Khan said:
“I would have been interested in that. He’s a great wrestler. I think he ended up signing for what I believe is probably a lot of money. I think that’s great and good for him. We have a lot of people spotlighted here and he’s great. Any company he goes to he’ll be a great wrestler for them.”
Owens spoke about his decision to re-sign with WWE, saying it was an ‘easy decision’ for him and his family.
Owens is set to face Bobby Lashley, Seth Rollins and WWE Champion Big E in a WWE Championship Fatal Four-Way at the WWE Day 1 pay-per-view on New Year’s Day.
