2: Samoa Joe
WWE has always booked Samoa Joe strong whether he's in a feud with Brock Lesnar for the Universal Title or he's facing anyone else just for the fun of administering some punishment. Joe has the presence of a monster and is lethal in promos. He is extremely agile for a man his size and can produce a great match when paired with the proper opponent.
Since debuting on the main roster, Joe is yet to taste any gold. Therefore, what better way than to win the big one at WrestleMania?
Very few guys can look menacing in the presence of Brock Lesnar and Joe is certainly one of them. If WWE booked Samoa Joe to win the Royal Rumble match it could create a captivating storyline as the Road To WrestleMania continues to a rematch between the Beast Incarnate and the Samoan Submission Machine.
