If true, I could see Bill's POV and Hunter's POV. Bill is kind of right in the sense it was the 1st match that should set the table, not take a high spot that Bill knew full well would be done in SEVERAL matches later in the card, especially when Steen has so many other things he can do when others after him only get mostly due to high flying (Lucha Dragons, Neville, Balor, etc). There is also the problem with showing favoritism in the sense that Bill has probably told inexperienced guys to NOT do a dive like that in an opening match and then letting a vet do it seems contradictory. From Hunter's POV, WWE hired Kevin because of what he could do and to make diehards that have followed his career happy, which in no small part is due to what he can do. That match was basically an extended squash match meant to highlight Owens, which means show what you can do, so Hunter was most likely "go for it". Now with that said, as impressive as Kevin's offense is, he won't take the next step until he gets better at making other guy's stuff look as impressive. That ability, in my opinion, is the weakest part of Kevin's game. From guys I trust that know Steen, they say he realizes this as well and is hoping to improve that very thing while in NXT.
