#6 John Cena vs Samoa Joe

This is still a literal dream match.

Sticking with Smackdown Live, this time a part-timer comes into the mix. John Cena has not been involved in a really good story since the start of 2017 and we all need a reminder of just how good the Cenation Leader really is.

He has become the part-time superstar that he once despised. Also, Cena has weirdly teased retirement on a couple of occasions so WWE must use his limited time left to build new stars.

They could start by booking a dream match between two superstars who go way back but have never had that one defining match against each other at a big enough stage. This is a match so hotly anticipated, that it should happen at the biggest stage.

Samoa Joe is a massive star. While he is a great wrestler, his promo skills are fantastic. Joe makes you buy into whatever he says to you. He made the entire feud with AJ Styles work, with his creepy delivery and awesome heel work.

While the build-up to this match would be sweet, the action would be pulsating. Cena literally has hardly had a good match since that one with Styles at Royal Rumble 2017. It would be nice to see him have one at long last. Joe would be the one to give that to him.

After failing to win the WWE Championship, the company must not leave Joe laying. His performances are always consistent and his talent warrants huge rewards in the ring.

And there are few rewards better than beating John Cena at WrestleMania
