@sandeepxKevin Owens addressed questions regarding his animosity toward CM Punk by stating that they simply do not gel. He explained that some people are just not compatible, and he is certain Punk would happily say the same about him. When discussing their match in Toronto, Owens noted that being Canadian does not necessarily provide a home-field advantage. He acknowledged that Punk is extremely popular, meaning the crowd could be split or even lean more toward his opponent. Despite this uncertainty, Toronto has always been an incredible city for him. The decision to hold the bout there was driven by personal history. Owens chose the location because it hosted what he thought would be his final match. At that time, he felt he could not have asked for a better place or opponent to end his career. Returning to that same city for such a major event feels significant to him. A crucial factor in this choice was family attendance. His parents and wider family will be present, which would not have been possible if the event were held elsewhere. His mother has faced health issues over the last several years that prevent her from flying or traveling long distances to shows. However, Toronto is a manageable drive from Montreal. This accessibility is vital because there was a period when Owens did not know if his parents would ever see him wrestle again. Now they will witness a high-stakes encounter where he could potentially win the Undisputed World Title. This stands in contrast to when he won the Universal Title, as his wife, kids, and parents watched that victory on television rather than live. Having them there in person after everything they have endured would make the experience much better
