I wouldn't be one bit surprised if some of the TNA alumni makes a strong surge in 2017. With talents like Joe, Aries, Young and Roode, all coming in with top-tier TNA resumes, any of these guys are capable of emerging atop one of the main rosters, sooner than later.
Speaking of those TNA guys, Samoa Joe is far and away the most accomplished of the group. Since arriving in NXT, Joe has dug deep and went back to his roots of being a relentless submission and technical wizard.
Not to mention Joe has improved leaps and bounds on his mic work. Samoa Joe has the experience and the in-ring ability to make huge waves in 2017.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
