Where do you go once you've already reached the pin🧜nacle?
At WrestleMania 38, Kevin Owens faced Stone Cold Steve Austin in the Hall of Famer's first match in 19 years. Though he would ultimately lose the bout, Owens was able to be part of a mo❀ment he'll likely never forget.
Owens discussed the Night One main event on and said he still cꦆan't believe it actually happened.
"It's all downhill from here, really. It's still unbelievable. Sometimes, I'll have my moments where I'm not doing anything, I'm just sitting around, and I'll pull it up on my phone and I'll specifically watch the moment where the ref rings the bell. I still can't believe it happened. It's really hard to process what happened and hard to put into words," Owens said.
Continuing on, Owens shared his memory of Austin backstage before the match pacing back and forth and looking like a caged lion ready to murder its🔜 prey.
"It's the moment where I say, 'I'm looking for a fight.' That's when he turns and gives me that glare. When I say, 'I'm looking for a fight,' You see people behind him standing up and you hear the buzz. Moments like that are special. Another thing I remember really well -- this might have been caught by a WWE 24 documentary crew -- at one point, right before we went out, I caught a glimpse of him just pacing back and forth. He looked like a caged lion ready to murder me. I was like, 'Oh man, this is going to be wild.' It's all very surreal and hard to put into words," he said.
Stone Cold would show up during Night Two of WrestleMania as well, delive🎉ring a Stunner to Austin Theory, Vince McMahon, and Pat McAfee.
Elsewhere during the interview, Owens tried to speak a match with Matthew McConaughey at WrestleMania 39 into existence. Click here to read more.
