#3 Have an old-timer win the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal

The Battle Royal could be a great opportunity to elevate brand new talent

The Big Show was supposed to face Shaquille O’Neal at WrestleMania 33, but the match is likely being called off. We see it likely that WWE makes him win the Battle Royal as a consolation to him, 30 years after Andre the Giant was slammed to the mat by Hulk Hogan.
This would be a great feel-good moment, but it would also be a lost opportunity. We would prefer it if the Battle Royal was used to push the next big stars, such as Braun Strowman, Luke Harper or heck, even Samoa Joe, if he doesn’t have a singles match.
We know Big Show wouldn't mind, as he cares about the future of the company with all his heart.
