Kevin Owens On How Close His Character Is To Real Life (Video), John Cena Hitting Milestone, Batista
- CBC News in Montreal interviewed Kevin Owens before last night's WWE live event at the Bell Centre, which you can watch in the video above. During the interview, Owens discussed how close his wrestling persona is to real life.
"It's very close, I would say," Owens admitted. "I'm a bit more of a loud mouth and I only beat people up when there's ropes around us obviously."
- John Finnegan of the North American Wrestling Rankings blog, which started keeping track of wrestlers' records and ranking them as of November 2006, sent us word that when Jack Swagger lost to Bo Dallas on WWE Superstars this week, it was his 300th televised match as a singles wrestler in that period. That makes him only the fifth wrestler (behind Randy Orton, Dolph Ziggler, Kofi Kingston, and Sheamus) to have wrestled that many televised singles matches. Assuming his match against Seth Rollins takes place this Sunday at WWE Night Of Champions, John Cena will reach this milestone on that night. Once again, please note that these records only count televised and pay-per-view singles matches since November 2006.
- Just a reminder that Batista and Eva Marie will be appearing at the Wizard World Ohio Comic Con in the Greater Columbus Convention Center in Columbus, Ohio this afternoon. Both stars will be signing autographs and posing for photos before participating in a Q&A panel. You can get more details here. We would appreciate photos and a report for either of the panels, so if you are attending one, please send us a report by clicking here.
