10 Ways Elimination Chamber Changed WWE's Future

10. Kevin Owens As The New Next Big Thing

Kevin Owens victory over John Cena at Elimination Chamber was remarkable. Not since Brock Lesnar in 2002 have we seen a rookie turn up and dominate like this. It has major implications for the future of WWE. The plans for Owens are clearly as big as anyone for the rest of this year, why else would he have just been fed John Cena clean. He's the new next big thing, an indie style Lesnar for 2015. For WWE it is more than just making a new guy, it is shifting an entire company philosophy. A guy from the indies has came in and defeated WWE's franchise star. In doing so, the match put huge emphasis on the in-ring style that has traditionally been seen outside of WWE. With Owens rise, we could well see an entire stylistic change in the WWE.
