‘I’m just doing my job’






After putting Randy Orton on the shelf indefinitely a week ago, Kevin Owens was ruled out of Friday’s episode of “WWE SmackDown.” Owens dropped a heated promo on social media in response, calling out the injustices done to him – both past and present – ​​by Nick Aldis, Triple H, Orton and the golden boy, WWE Universal Champion Cody Rhodes.

“You know, it’s getting harder and harder to do my job,” Owens opened. “Because I continue to suffer consequences for things that are absolutely not my fault.”

In the two-minute video titled “Injustice,” Owens sat in his car after being turned away from the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, where Friday’s episode of “SmackDown” was scheduled to take place. Owens claimed he was “just doing (his) job” when he attacked Orton, and reiterated to viewers his initial attempts to avoid an official match with Orton. The ensuing violence against “The Viper,” Owens reasoned, was the natural result of Orton’s insistent plea to WWE officials for a fight at Crown Jewel.

“I did exactly what Triple H tried to warn Randy Orton to do!” Owens defended. “And last week – all I did was do what they asked me to do, (because) Randy showed up and called me to the ring, and I showed up, and now I’m in trouble because I put Randy Orton on the shelf ?That’s absolute nonsense.

Owens pointed out the hypocrisy of Aldis’ reconciliation with Rhodes, who demanded that Owens appear on the upcoming November 22 episode of “SmackDown” to face him. Despite his displeasure, Owens confirmed that he will be attending the upcoming episode of ‘SmackDown’ in Salt Lake City, although he was sure to remind everyone that he was doing this purely for himself.

“But everyone needs to remember one thing when I show up next Friday,” Owens warned. “I’m just doing what you all want me to do. I’m just doing my job.’
