- Introduction to Wrestling and Early Training (01:05 - 03:45): Kevin Steen, born in Quebec, Canada, got into wrestling at a young age after watching WrestleMania 11 with his dad. He began training at 14 in a barn under a local trainer before moving to Jacques Rougeau’s wrestling school.
- Influence of Shawn Michaels (04:17 - 04:49): Shawn Michaels became Kevin Steen’s favorite wrestler after seeing him at WrestleMania 11. As a small and skinny kid, Steen admired Michaels, seeing him as someone relatable who could succeed despite not being physically large.
- Early Career Struggles and Breakthrough (07:55 - 10:08): After training with Jacques Rougeau, Steen wrestled in his shows but found them too controlled and scripted. Eventually, he discovered independent promotions like IWS, where he found creative freedom and formed important relationships, including with El Generico.
- IWS and Independent Scene Experience (12:04 - 17:23): Steen began wrestling for IWS, where he had more autonomy in his matches, interacting with passionate crowds. His experiences there helped him refine his wrestling style and laid the foundation for his career, culminating in a significant tag team partnership with El Generico.
- Turning Point with WWE and Ring of Honor (26:47 - 41:47): Kevin Steen's breakout came through U.S. indies like CZW, Jersey All Pro, and eventually PWG. His rivalry with El Generico became one of the most iconic storylines, leading him to Ring of Honor and later WWE as Kevin Owens, where he continued to make his mark.
