#3 Kevin Owens vs John Cena - Elimination Chamber (May 31, 2015), Money in the Bank (June 14, 2015), Battleground (July 19, 2015)
Kevin Owens burst onto the scene in WWE in superb style.
Making the move up to the main roster from NXT, the reigning NXT Champion challenged the then-United States Champion, John Cena, who at that point had 15 World title reigns under his belt to a heavily hyped match at the 2015 Elimination Chamber event.
That bout was one of the finest matches of the year as the two traded a succession of exciting near falls before Owens scored the surprise clean pinfall. That star making performance by Owens beautifully set up the two rematches that followed.
In the first at Money in the Bank 2015, the big match aura was maintained and the pair contested yet another keenly fought and hugely satisfying encounter. The result was switched this time with Cena coming out on top, but Owen's earned so many near falls that his star was not damaged by the defeat one iota.
Their final match at Battleground the next month was superb also. This was the only match of the trilogy that had a title on the line; Cena's United States crown.
It was also the longest of the three as the pair hit each other with everything they had once more. Cena took the match and retained the belt but Owens's career on the main roster had been made.
This was a perfect example of how a young star can get over at an older star's expense, even when they don't win the feud. Three-match series don't come much better than John Cena and Kevin Owens; this was a blistering series and some of the best matches of either men's careers.
