United States Champion Logan Paul vs. Kevin Owens
At Royal Rumble, United States Champion
Logan Paul will defend his title for the first time against former U.S. Champion
Kevin Owens.
KO emerged victorious from the U.S. Title Tournament, defeating Austin Theory, Carmelo Hayes and finally Santos Escobar to claim the tournament victory.
Soon after his fight against Escobar, Owens was confronted by The Social Media Megastar, and he responded by knocking out Paul with his cast.
Despite competing with a cast the past few weeks, KO has not been deterred, and he’s seeking to become United States Champion for the fourth time. Even with his championship pedigree, Owens has not hold singles gold since 2017.
Paul has been flying high since defeating Rey Mysterio to become U.S. Champion at WWE Crown Jewel, gallivanting around with his title and drawing the ire of many.
Paul and Owens share some history, as The Social Media Megastar was in the corner of Sami Zayn, who Owens defeated at WrestleMania 37. After that match, KO hit Paul with a Stunner.
That encounter was three years ago, and much has changed since then, with Paul becoming a much more dangerous competitor.
Can KO use his momentum from the U.S. Title Tournament to capture singles gold once more? Find out on Saturday, Jan. 27, at 8 ET/5 PT on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else.
