4 reasons why Samoa Joe must be the sole survivor at Survivor Series 2017

#2 Gives Joe leverage to return into Universal Title contention

To say Samoa Joe gave Brock Lesnar a 'run for his money ''is not even defining the magnitude of this feud

With bragging rights up for grabs at the marquee PPV, WWE have also raised the stakes by putting Kurt Angle’s Raw general manager job at risk if his team loses. Thus, Samoa Joe being sole survivor will allow for Angle to keep his position and allow him to continue building towards his inevitable showdown with Triple H at Wrestlemania 34.

WWE should take full advantage of these circumstances and present Joe as a calculating a** kicker, whose plan was all along was to become sole survivor. Which puts him in a favourable position to take advantage of Angle’s indebtedness for saving his job. Therefore, demanding a one-on-one rematch with Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship.

Samoa Joe’s intense pursuit of Lesnar instantly made him the hottest superstar in the company. Whether it was his subtle silent warning whispered into Paul Heyman’s ear, which resulted in explosive consequence for the advocate. Or his willingness to find and assault Lesnar every passing week. Joe’s every action made him feel legitimately dangerous.

“Fear begets fear” and Samoa Joe showed with regards to Lesnar’s intimidation factor, he does not fear “the beast” instead “the beast” must fear him. WWE should create efforts to make Brock Lesnar’s Universal Title reign feel in jeopardy heading into Wrestlemania season. And who better to create that unpredictably than the “Samoan submission machine” himself.
