Kevin Owens Wasn’t WWE’s First Choice For Main Roster Call-Up?
May 30, 2015 | Posted by
Kevin Owens may not have been WWE’s first choice to be the next call-up from NXT. WWE originally planned on bringing Sami Zayn up after his NXT Takeover match with Owens, but Zayn suffered an injury and plans changed.
Owens signed a new main roster contract and will work all RAW shows in the future. He will also keep working in NXT until he loses the NXT title and moves to the main roster full time.
Meanwhile, WWE also has “big plans” for Finn Balor on the main roster whenever they decide to call him up.
