5 current WWE Superstars who were successful after leaving Ring of Honor

The Destroyer has been very successful since leaving Ring of Honor

#2 Kevin Owens

Owens has captured title after title since joining the WWE

As the former face of America, Kevin Owens has had work pretty hard to achieve that status. His success hasn’t come easy as the former United States champion has had to sacrifice his body, time and time again simply to reach a status that has made him a primary focus of a brand.

Owens has come in and provided fans with a great deal of entertainment with several moments. His time in the WWE has been impactful immediately. From the moment he was being promoted to debuting with the brand, to his time turning on Sami Zayn and immediately competing for the NXT championship, Owens has turned a number of heads.

Before he came to the WWE, Owens simply competed under his real name Kevin Steen, throughout the independents, but most particularly in Ring of Honor.

While there, Steen captured the Ring of Honor world championship, was part of memorable feuds and alliances and left an impression that still is talked about today. He didn't rest on his laurels and after achieving a winning attitude in ROH, Owens captured the NXT, Intercontinental, United States and the Universal championship.

Owens is among the most decorated former ROH stars with the WWE today.
