5 WWE Superstars who beat John Cena clean

#3. Kevin Owens

Then the NXT Champion, Kevin Owens made his presence felt on the main roster by flattening Cena.

When Kevin Owens joined WWE in late 2014, the Canadian Superstar vowed to make an impression.

Doing just that, Owens won the NXT Championship just two months into his career and shocked everyone when he appeared on RAW months later to answer John Cena's open challenge.

Refusing to fight Cena for on freeTV, the pair faced off at Elimination Chamber 2015, in what was a sink or swim moment for the Prizefighter.

As both men gave their all, the fans were hooked, though it was Owens who won the bout, demolishing the 16-time World Champion with a devastating Pop Up Powerbomb.

With such a huge win under his belt, Owens would quickly capture the Intercontinental Championship shortly after becoming a main roster star and won the Universal title the next year.
