Little confused by the Kevin Owens situation, So his current feud seems to be with Cena, however nothing seemed to come to a head with Samoa Joe, he's getting his re-match against Balor, and it seems like its Owens that took out Itami, and was that the end of his feud with Zayne?
Is Owens gonna be working both Raw and NXT or are we gonna be forgetting about those NXT feuds?
I guess they could frame someone else for Itami, I'm hoping that Zayne returns and faces Owens for the US title later on in the year, sucks that he's not gonna have a one on one match with Joe though. Unless they're saving that for a WWE PPV cause they know it'll do well? The Balor re-match I dont really want to see as the outcome is too predictable
I'm loving the way Owens is being pushed, so I dont really mind that he seems to have a few unfinished feuds, I'm just wondering if there are gonna be follow ups, or will it be something that never gets acknowledged

He just has a lot of enemies.
According to Sami Zayn's promo on NXT this week, they aren't done but he's injured for now
His feud with Finn Balor should wrap up at TakeOver: Brookyln
I have no clue what's going to end the Samoa Joe rivalry
His stuff with John Cena should be over either tonight or within the next month
I don't believe he attacked Hideo Itami at all

He's got a lot going on but he's handling it well. Id like to see a couple of these feuds get wrapped up soon though.
Like Kev I highly doubt he attacked Itami.

I would call up Zayn when hes ready to face Owens
The rematch should end the Balor stuff
Dont know or really care bout his program with Joe

Just out of interest who do you guys think attacked Itami?
I'm hoping it wasnt Breeze, I wanna see Itami do something different.

I read that Owens will be doing doubly duty with both the main roster and NXT.

I definitely think Balor attacked Itami. So that will pick up when Itami returns from injury.
I think the feuds with Zayn and Joe could potentially continue on the main roster at some point. Owens and Zayn will always have history.
Owens' feud with Balor will end in Brooklyn and he'll be done with NXT. You can't keep pulling him in opposite directions and the split booking is only going to hurt his main roster character.
There isn't really any confusion IMO. He's going to win the U.S. title tonight, wrap up his business with Balor, and it will be full speed ahead for him.

Only reason they have Owens vs Balor was to sell tickets to fill out Barclays. Owens is huge in NYC and that's the biggest match they can put on given the injuries in nxt. I'm going with Corbin attacking Itami.

Owens over Cena tonight, then Cena over Owens at SS in a non-title cage match.
Balor over Owens in Brooklyn.
Joe fued was just to introduce Joe to NXT/WWE. It's over now because we know who he is. I do think they'll collide again in the future and that they may reference "unfinished business".
It would be cool if "The Demon" attacked Itami and WWE tried to separate the Demon from Balor as a character. I don't want Balor to wrestle heel though. I like him as a cool baby face for people to look up to.

It's totally gonna be revealed that Balor attacked Itami. I would put money on it.

I know some of these guys have lots of chemistry and history overseas and in the indys before NXT (I'm slowly catching up with it, so forgive my ignorance) but did Joe and Itami wrestle much back in the day? I could see Joe be the attacker and get the monster heel run Owens had when Kevin goes to the main roster full time. |

I'm in the same boat as you man, I'm only just learning more about them now, I know Joe from TNA but Itami is new to me. I dont know if Joe wrestled much in Japan, I know he worked ROH and TNA for a good time... I think that could make for agood match though. |

Owens is a classic heel. The kind that pisses off everyone he comes in contact with. Honestly, I love that about him.

I could see Joe be the attacker and get the monster heel run Owens had when Kevin goes to the main roster full time. Hideo and Joe had two matches in ROH, a tag match of Hideo and Naomichi Marufuji vs Joe and some schmuck named Bryan Danielson. Hideo's team won. The other was a triple threat also involving that jobber Bryan Danielson, Hideo won that too. |

The other was a triple threat also involving that jobber Bryan Danielson, Hideo won that too. See, if I were running NXT, and I knew a good portion of the fans knew the back stories for most of the top talent, I'd try to give them something as fresh as possible like Joe/Itami, while also being able to rely on a sure thing like they have with Zayn/Owens. I could see the Balor heel story line, but with the special they did on him I'd be surprised if they turned him, even as long as Itami's out for. They've got Joe for the long haul now, and he's a proven monster face, heel, or ass-kicker. Have him play face through his Owens feud and on until Itami comes back. It'll keep new fans with ADD interested and it 'should' keep the smart fans happy too. |
