10 Reasons Kevin Owens Is WWE's Most Valuable Superstar
10. In-Ring Ability
There is absolutely no denying the in-ring ability of Kevin Owens. One of the best workers on the entire WWE roster, he has delivered outstanding, show-stealing performances against the likes of Dean Ambrose, AJ Styles and Sami Zayn. Then there was the near-classic against John Cena at Elimination Chamber, just weeks after his much talked-about debut.
Mixing a brawling style with high-impact maneuvers, including the Death Valley Driver, Cannonball and running senton, Owens' style lends itself to a spot-heavy match. That may be a bad thing in the independents, where that type of match is presented from the opener to the main event, but it helps set him apart from his fellow WWE Superstars.
Add to it a Pop-up Powerbomb finisher that can be hit from out of anywhere and you have the recipe for a worker who thrives in the big match atmosphere.
Above all, Owens' in-ring style is the closest thing to that of a power heel that exists on WWE's full-time roster. It suits his character to a tee, something that cannot be said about even the biggest stars in the company. Owens knows who he is, understands his character and his ring game reflects as much.
