Breakout Star of the Year
Kevin Owens
Another easy pick. Since defeating John Cena clean on his debut, Kevin Owens has been a made man. Although going on to lose his feud with Cena, Owens has provided so many memorable moments from powerbombing Machine Gun Kelly off the stage to winning the Intercontinental Championship.
He started the year as NXT Champion, elevating the title to new heights & helping NXT develop into the brand that it is today. He headlined the critically acclaimed NXT Takeover Brooklyn show against Finn Balor in an extremely memorable Ladder Match for the NXT Championship. He went on to defeat Ryback for the Intercontinental Championship & will see even bigger heights in 2016.
