"WWE pushes too many jacked up big men!" "Kevin Owens is out of shape and doesn't belong in the WWE!" And people wonder why WWE doesn't ing listen to us. We can't get out of our own damn way sometimes.

If Bubba Ray Dudley can wrestle and get respect, I don't see why Kevin Owens can't either. And this is coming from a guy at first who hated Kevin Owens. But I really didn't hate Kevin Owens, I just hated how everyone felt he was gonna be the savior of the WWE. We all know that title belongs to Chris Jericho.

Ironically Owens has pretty much identical build as Jim Neidhart did for over half of his run.

Kevin Owens is also one of the best talents in the past decade. He is more than capable of "going" like Bryan and CM Punk. The fact of the matter is that wrestling fans like to whine about "big men" getting pushed but now we have a percentage wanting to "fat shame" Kevin Owens. There has been times in WWE where everyone looks about the same. There were differences but WWE looked more like a Calvin Klein ad instead of a wrestling product. And now some people are upset that Kevin Owens doesn't fit that mold. Who the hell cares though? Kevin Owens is one of the best heels going in the business right now and has been putting on good (or better) matches since he walked through the door in WWE. Let alone the independents. Acting like Kevin Owens "can't go" because of his "fatness" is insane.

Comparing Kevin Owens to Jim Neidhart is like comparing Goldberg to Gillberg.
Owens > Neidhart by a mile and a half

I can accept someone not liking Owens. But it doesn't sit well with me if that dislike comes from a place of "fat hating."

I'm gonna delete all that BS so the adults can have a nice conversation. Saying some is "outta shape" is one thing, but to call them a "fat tub of crap" is another.

It's just a sad attempt of someone trying to start an argument is all it is. I can accept someone not liking someone I like, but to do it in a way where you act like your opinion is a fact is just aggravating.

For the last 3 years that's how this place works. A lot of posters seem to think that their opinion is fact. One reason I stay out of many discussions here.

I like Owens. With that being said, in his profession you are supposed to do your best to look good and eat right. Which he clearly doesn't. But as long as he stays in decent shape and works out, i couldn't care less.

This x 1,000,000 !!!! Personally a massive KO fan. He comes in my top of all time; Hbk. Rvd. Seth. Raven. Sandman. A-aries. Punk. Foley. Eddie. X-Pac. And KEVIN.

Sometimes i get this feeling that KO is trying -too- hard. Like when he cuts people off and says things like "oh what are you going to do now Alberto, speak Spanish?" Whereas I do find it humorous, I find it like he is trying too hard to be a jerk and it comes off like really rehearsed, and seems almost like breaking kayfabe in a away. PS: i really like KO, i am just saying . . .

Haven't got a problem with Owens, just pisses me off why they got on at Chris Hero for being overweight yet continue to push Owens. Pot calling the kettle black

They never asked Owens to lose weight as far as I know. I they specifically asked Hero to get in shape. Your employer tells you to do something you do it or get fired. Simple as that.

That's what I mean, I know they didn't do it with Owens but I find it a bit ridiculous they told Hero to lose weight but continue to push a fat guy.
