Kevin Owens taunts little kid for wearing Roman Reigns shirt, taunts kid's mother for complaining
WWE superstar Kevin Owens remained extremely dedicated to staying in character during a live event over the weekend, even when a little kid wanted to high-five him.
Owens spotted the kid, who was wearing a Roman Reigns t-shirt, and chewed him out.
“Go buy this shirt,” he said, pointing at his chest. “Actually, you know what, don’t go guy this shirt. I don’t want you to wear a Kevin Owens shirt ever. Don’t you ever try to touch me.”
Well, the seven-year-old’s mother got upset, writing that he was “heartbroken” in a long Facebook post.
From Wrestlezone:
My heart is shattered. What started off as an amazingly awesome night ended in my 7 year old being completely heartbroken. My son is a huge WWE fan and a fan of just about every wrestler on the roster.... All night he was getting high fives from other wrestlers and was all smiles but for some reason when Kevin Owens came out he singled out my son and commented on who's shirt he was wearing then told him "you should get this shirt. Actually don't get this shirt I don't want you to ever wear my shirt. Don't you ever try to touch me." All because my 7 year old wanted a high five and wasn't wearing his shirt. My heart sank. He became visibly upset, sat down and kept staring at the gate. I couldn't help it I started crying.
To top all of this off after Kevin Owens lost to Roman Reigns and he was walking away from the ring my son was just standing there on his seat watching and Kevin Owens jumped towards him and yelled at him "I am your father" which made no sense but with the sudden movement and loudness made all of us jump and my son almost fell of his seat. My son is crushed and whenever he talks about it he tears up. I can't believe a wrestler would actually treat a 7 year old fan this way. Shame on you Kevin Owens and WWE.
Well, Owens wasn’t too amused.

That little kid may have liked every wrestler before this weekend, but now he’ll always hate one.
