Kevin Owens and Roman Reigns have solid chemistry when they share the squared circle.
This week, the veteran WWE Superstar appeared as a guest on the After The Bell with Corey Graves podcast for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During the discussion, the longtime pro wrestling star said his matches with Roman Reigns were his favorite from the pandemic era in WWE.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview where he touches on this topic with his thoughts.
On what some of his favorite matches were with Roman Reigns during the pandemic era: "Yeah, you know, to me, those three matches we had are some of my favorites I’ve ever had. And they were like I said in front of nobody. And that’s not true, they weren’t in front of nobody was there in front of you guys, or in front of our production team. You know what I mean?"
On how wrestling in the pandemic era and how he aimed his performances towards the WWE production crew: "It’s funny, because I’ve said this before in interviews during the pandemic, you know, we get asked in interviews all the time, ‘How would you keep yourself motivated because you’re wrestling in front of technically nobody? Well, I would just keep our production team, our camera crews, our commentators, everybody that has seen wrestling for a very long time, they’re my audience now. And if I have a match, and our camera guy is super sweaty, come up to me after and tell me, ‘Hey, that was really good.’ Those guys have seen it all for a very long time. If I’m able to entertain them and make them not, you know, forget about the fact that they’re holding a 45-pound camera and filming just two guys wrestling again. You know, if I’m able to make them enjoy themselves well, I’ve done something good. So I would still use that as motivation in those matches too. But again, you know, it’s not that like 16,000, 17,000 whatever, even if it’s in a stadium, 45,000 people watching, so I’d love to get the opportunity to do that for sure."
