ROH Star Talks NXT Being "A Goal," If Kevin Owens Is A WrestleMania Main Eventer

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross recently spoke with Ring of Honor's Michael Elgin on The Ross Report. During the interview, Elgin commented on Kevin Owens' bright future with WWE and stated that Owens is a WrestleMania main event level talent. Elgin said, "there is no doubt in my mind" that Owens has what it takes to achieve WrestleMania main event level status.

"[Owens] has the passion for it, he has the work ethic, and, you know, I see huge things for him within WWE," Elgin stated. "Working with him, being on the road with him, he has a knack for it in every aspect – I would be almost shocked if he doesn't main event a WrestleMania."

Elgin also told Ross that his goal is to make it to WWE NXT.

"There [are] still a couple of things I want to accomplish and a few things at Ring of Honor that I still have to accomplish, but, no doubt in my mind, [making it to NXT] is definitely a goal of mine," Elgin said.

"I always thought I was going to make it, but in other people's eyes, if I was going to make it," he continued. "I was going to have to venture the world and follow in the footsteps of guys like Eddie Guerrero and Dean Malenko and Chris Jericho and leave behind a legacy of my work elsewhere to get to WWE, or now NXT, but that's definitely a route I'm okay with taking and I want to take in the future."
