WWE’s Kevin Owens praises Stephanie McMahon, happy she’s taking time for herself

Kevin Owens says Stephanie McMahon has been "nothing but amazing" to him during his time in WWE. 

Ahead of his title match with Roman Reigns at the Royal Rumble on Saturday, Owens spoke with the San Antonio Express-news and commented on Vince McMahon's return to the company, Stephanie's resignation, and a potential WWE sale. 

Owens noted that he was glad to see Stephanie more frequently at shows in recent months but everyone is happy she is now able to take time away from the company.   

Owens said: 

“(Stephanie) has been nothing but amazing to me my entire time here. And I was so happy to see her more at the shows and get to be around her and get to work for her,” Owens said. “Everybody’s also kind of happy that she gets to take this time for herself.”

Owens was also asked about the possibility of WWE being sold. He responded that the roster is just concentrating on putting on the best show possible. 

“The internet will say what the internet will say, and then the reality will be what really matters,” Owens said. “We just care about what we do in the ring. That’s what we try to do our best at.”

Stephanie McMahon resigned from WWE on January 10, 2023, shortly before the company announced that its board of Directors had unanimously approved Vince McMahon's return as executive chairman.
