To say that Kevin Owens has had a rough time in WWE recently is an understatement. Owens came under fire after he attacked WWE Champion Cody Rhodes following the Bad Blood premium live event. Owens' actions led to the former world champion being suspended from SmackDown.

Now, it seems like Owens has had enough. Owens recently took to social media to address the "disrespect" he's felt from the company. "I've been in WWE now for about 10 years, and I've had a lot of ups and downs," Owens said.



"But I don't think things have ever felt as bad as they do right now. It makes me ask myself how appreciated and valued I am by this company." "For WWE officials to tell me to stay home, to not come to work, to not come to SmackDown, where I belong.

All because of what I did to Cody Rhodes after Bad Blood, is just so unfair and ridiculous." Owens then compared the incident to what happens regularly on WWE television, but it was different this time because he "dropped their little golden boy." "That really makes me ask myself just how appreciated and valued I am in this company," Owens added.

com/8kPlB7a3AV Despite his grievances with the Cody Rhodes situation, Owens was more upset about what happened with his former tag team partner Randy Orton. "What I can't get over, though, is what Randy Orton did to me," Owens lamented. "Randy, I can't believe that you betrayed me like that.

You can let people say whatever they want about me, 'Kevin Owens always turns on all his friends,' blah blah blah...

" "I would have never done that to you. Ever. Because I thought that what we had was different.

Dude, I just can't believe you picked Cody Rhodes over me." Owens is referring to Orton confronting his partner and friend on the Oct. 11 episode of SmackDown, which ended with Orton punching Owens to the ground.

Owens would soon get his revenge, attacking Orton backstage at the show. "Between the disrespect shown to me by WWE and Randy breaking my trust like that, I really don't know if or when I can come back." This follows rumors that Owens' contract with WWE is coming to an end .

Still, after spending over 10 years with the promotion, it's hard to believe that the Prize Fighter would leave.
