34 things that should happen at WrestleMania 34 - PART 1

#2 The Samoan badass conquers the fray

A win for Samoa Joe is a win in the right direction for this match

When compiling a list of potential winners for the fifth annual Andre the Giant Memorable Battle Royal, many popular names dominate the list. However, while prominent names such as Rusev, Baron Corbin and Elias all dominate the potential winner's list, there is one Superstar who needs an explosive return to the company -- Samoa Joe. Needless to say, he will extremely benefit from this win.

"The Samoan submission machine" is currently on a hiatus from the squared circle due to an unfortunate injury. However, rumours have been circulating that the former NXT champion will be able to make his anticipated return to the wrestling ring before WrestleMania 34.

Taking that information into consideration, it is actually too late for WWE to build a narrative for Joe.Therefore, the Andre the Giant Memorable Battle Royal will be the best option for his triumphant return.

Having a megastar such as Samoa Joe win this match which has been previously won by underutilised talents such as Mojo Rawley, Baron Corbin, and Big Show, will certainly elevate the entire concept of this match.

As judging by Joe’s intense pursuit of Brock Lesnar in 2017, the trophy and match as a whole will get a lot of legitimacy form him. And as Joe is rumoured to take on Roman Reigns for the Universal Title after WrestleMania, this would be the best way to ignite his hot streak once again.
