How to play it

Respect his E knock-up
When he Q's at level 3+, stand a bit off the pillar so he can't E-knockup trade you.
Take the level 2 all-in
Hit your level 2 all-in, and zone him off XP at level 1 if the second wave has already aggro'd onto yours.
Trade with empowered Q
Punish any wave touch with a 2-3 empowered-Q dragthrough trade for a big chunk of his HP, then drop aggro.
Don't taunt him after 6 unless you have a real reason he can't R all-in you back: he's low, a gank is coming, or you're mega-ahead.

Shen vs Ornn in Top lane is a favourable lane on patch 26.17. The one thing to respect: when he throws a Q at level 3+, stand a little off the pillar so he has no angle to E-knockup trade you back.
