4. Kevin Owens

What a WWE career Kevin Owens has had to date. The French-Canadian burst onto the scene in 2014 and has already won a plethora of championships, not to mention putting together a two-match Hell in a Cell winning streak and a feud of the year program with Chris Jericho.

Owens was the first man to make the move from RAW to SmackDown on-screen (Jinder was announced via social media), and he has proven to be a top star for the blue brand ever since. Owens is the perfect main event heel for SmackDown Live - he can dominate the top of the card without having to vie for attention with the company favourites.

KO has been feuding with Shane McMahon for a few months now, and also has his best friend Sami Zayn by his side. Owens is all set to become SmackDown’s most important star, European tour shenanigans be damned. Would KO be featured at the top of the table if he was still on RAW? I’m not sure.
