#4 The New Daniel Bryan Vs. Shinsuke Nakamura
If you've been closely following Shinsuke Nakamura's career from the independent scene, then you know that the former NXT Champion shares a very close relationship with Daniel Bryan.
Both the performers are pretty good pals and have always openly stated of their desire to work together on the main roster.
Considering that Nakamura is currently roaming around with the Intercontinental Championship, this could be the right opportunity to book this classic feud.
Moreover, WWE could use Bryan's brilliant heel run to gradually transition Nakamura into a full-fledged babyface.
Imagine these two in-ring technicians going against one another, with Bryan bringing the best out of the King of Strong Style.
These two could literally ascend the prestige of the I.C. Championship and if there was ever a momentous time for this rivalry to come to life, it is now.
#5 Samoa Joe Vs. Randy Orton
Judging by how WWE has been presenting Samoa Joe recently, legions in the WWE Universe are expecting the former NXT Champion to gradually transition into a babyface.
Even though he may never be a full-fledged face, portraying more of an anti-hero against one of the most decorated superstars in Randy Orton could very well give WWE what's best for business.
A feud of this stature could be similar to Orton's last epic, yet short lived, feud with A.J. Styles. Orton's detest for Samoa Joe's awe-inspiring journey from the independent circuits could make for some spine-chilling narrative.
Since the company is pushing for some edgier television on the main roster, this could be the perfect feud to redefine the prestige and importance of the Intercontinental Championship.
The Apex Predator colliding with the Samoan Submission Machine, with Joe working as an admirable anti-hero could very well propel this feud to unimaginable heights.
