At the WWE Bash in Berlin, Kevin Owens aimed for his first world title since more than seven years ago. In the initial three years of his career with WWE, the Prizefighter was almost always adorned with championship belts. He won the NXT Championship just two months after his debut, followed by the WWE Intercontinental Title two months later when he relinquished the NXT belt, then the WWE Universal Championship four months following the end of his Intercontinental title reign, and finally, the WWE United States Championship two months after that. However, since he lost the WWE United States Title in summer 2017, Owens hasn’t secured a singles title again.
