#5 Samoa Joe
The Samoan Submission Machine exudes so much intensity and vigour that he’s going to be one of those WWE Superstars whose relevance or over-ness, for lack of a better word, won’t depend much on his win-loss record.
He’s another Superstar who’s cut his teeth in MMA, giving his hard-hitting wrestling style much more impetus, and is blessed with athleticism that belies his frame – an unlikely characteristic that he shares with Brock Lesnar.
This one match has to happen purely because neither Joe nor Lesnar has ever been booked as anything but the most dominant alpha male in the yard. And if they do clash, something has to give.
Samoa Joe will not be intimidated by Brock Lesnar, and we all know what happened the last time someone stood up to the Beast – the match just lasted a minute and 26 seconds.
There is little chance that Brock Lesnar will be on the wrong end of a squash match yet again, but we can at least concur that the whole immovable object versus the irresistible force shtick never gets old.
Book it, Vince!
