8. Kevin Owens

It's been a mixed year so far for Kevin Owens, and yet he still remains one of WWE's finest performers. Dropping the Universal Title to part-time Goldberg at Fastlane in rapid fashion can't have sat well, but KO did it without complaint. Since then, he's made the United States Title feel special again.

Owens is the kind of guy who should always have a title around his waist in WWE; super-adaptable, he can work a variety of styles against different wrestlers. Need an example? Check the hot brawl he had with Roman Reigns at Royal Rumble, then compare that with the back-and-forth effort against AJ Styles at Backlash.

On television, Owens has had great matches against Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins and others too. His split from Chris Jericho resulted in several heated bouts, and the same could be said for his tag matches with Y2J when they were together.

2017 hasn't been as good as 2016 for KO, but he's still one of the best.
