Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted January 1, 2016 Author Awards Moderator Posted January 1, 2016 Loads of good choices here. There's nothing quite like a Brock Lesnar match. Rollins had a great year on paper. Reigns had some fantastic matches despite his character being the total opposite of what everyone wants it to be. Owens was a revelation from my perspective of never liking him as Kevin Steen. Sasha was the Boss, and I looked forward to seeing her every time she was on on TV. She almost got my vote. Â But since she moved up to main roster, I've lost a little of my Sasha love (only a little bit, though - I watched the TLC pre-show for her, dammit!), so I've got to give this to Cena. Guy's been on a roll all year. He's the best.
