Kevin Owens could have already been huge/credible enough to face Brock Lesnar.

If the OP wasn't such a delusional fan or feel he should've been the next Brock Lesnar; he would see that KO isn't being mistreated and has been consistently involved in decent programs since he has been on the main roster. There's nothing wrong with the path that he's on. Even after the match tonight, he appears to have another program in line until the next PPV at least.

I'm not mad when he went to midcard after losing to Cena, that was the right call. I'm surprised they had him lose to Ambrose for three straight PPVs. I figured they'd split the series at first and Owens goes on to win at RR but I guess with this loss it could lead to further character development for Owens, desperation. It's great to see he is passionate about the IC title, something we haven't seen in a while.

I'm so tired of the Kevin Owens vs Brock complaining. Just stop. Kevin Owens got beat by Neville and Ambrose. You think he has a chance against Brock? cmon. Not only that but Brock tossed him around like a rag doll on Raw. Plus it's not even his first full year here. He needs time to build himself into a legit threat to Brock Lesnar...because it's not believable. I like Owens but people here are making me resent him with this crying. He's not very marketable either and that's the main thing. How does that match even sound? Not intriguing to me, let alone a casual fan. The story and feud/build would be boring. He's very overrated on the mic here too...he's good but damn. He's not Cm Punk type good like people make him out to be. I hate to turn this into a bash Owens post...again, but enough. He's improving, and while he's no spring chicken, he will get better with more time on the main roster. As much as I like him, I don't think he's got "it" the way guys like Cena, Punk, Bryan, Rollins, Orton, Brock, Undertaker, Jericho, HHH or even Reigns do. So I wouldn't really put him in a headlining position on a Mania card like I would any of those aformentioned guys. It doesn't mean I wouldn't have him against any of them (probably only Bryan, Jericho and Orton) but I wouldn't put him in a top selling main/co-main Mania match like I would those guys.
