5 WWE Wrestlers That John Cena Elevated

Kevin Owens

Kevin Owens attacked John Cena in his very first night on WWE’s main roster, starting a feud between the two. They first met at Elimination Chamber 2015, and Owens shockingly pinned Cena clean in the middle of the ring! That moment instantly put The Prizefighter on the map.

While Owens went on to lose to Cena at the following two PPVs, KO still came out of the program looking great. Kevin Owens became the Intercontinental Champion shortly after the rivalry with Cena ended, and just a year later, he captured the Universal Championship.
