#2. Kevin Owens - A "Triple H guy" through and through
Kevin Owens is one of Triple H's many marquee signings during his NXT era. He has developed quite a few top stars through the brand, but Owens had a relatively short-lived stint there. It's hard to imagine that the popular star's run in NXT only lasted a full six months before he jumped to the main roster. Even after he joined WWE RAW, he held onto the NXT Championship for a few months before he lost it to Finn Balor.
His time in NXT concluded in August 2015, but The King of Kings' influence followed him onto the main roster. The most memorable moment they shared together came a year later in August 2016. During a Fatal-4-Way match, The Game shockingly turned on Seth Rollins and helped Owens capture the Universal Championship.

As of this writing, Owens hasn't won another world title ever since. But this victory wouldn't have happened without WWE's decision to pull the trigger on the feud between Triple H and Seth Rollins.
Years after his reign as the Universal Champion, The Game's impact on Owens' career remains apparent, and he remains heavily featured on the main roster. The "lucrative" contract offer that he signed in late 2021 indicates that WWE sees value in him as a top star, so it seems like Owens has a bright future.
