#4 Braun Strowman: Brock Lesnar, Samoa Joe or IC Title

The main event fans deserve to see.

As of this writing, Braun Strowman is WWE's wildcard. The most over superstar currently across all brands is himself being kept as a substitute for Roman Reigns if the Big Dog were to be removed from WrestleMania's Universal title match.

Any damaging evidence against the #1 contender for the Universal title in the on-going steroid trial could force the WWE to hand Strowman another opportunity to beat Brock Lesnar, but this time, it could be at the grandest stage of them all.

WWE is just buying some time with the impromptu Elias/Strowman programme and will take a definite call sooner rather than later.

Strowman is also in line to face Samoa Joe if the former NXT Champion returns from his foot injury by WrestleMania weekend and even if that fails to come to fruition, WWE would end up adding both Strowman and Elias to the IC title picture, making it a five-way dance with Balor, Rollins and of course, The Miz for the championship.
