6 tweaks that would help improve WWE in 2019

#3: Have the Andre Battle Royal winner get more than just a trophy

The winner of the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal deserves more than a trophy.

Winning a battle royal at Wrestlemania is great for whoever wins, but after they're done carrying around the trophy for the few weeks after Wrestlemania, it's pointless. Former winners Cesaro, the Big Show and Mojo Rawley didn't get a big push or do anything notable after winning the battle royal.

Sure it's a great way to get as many wrestlers onto the biggest PPV of the year, but not having a meaningful prize (at least in my eyes) doesn't make people care about it as much as WWE may want us to.

The same can be said for this year's women's battle royal at Wrestlemania. Sure, Naomi won it, but it was more of a consolation prize rather than an opportunity earned because of her winning.

That's what a win in either of those battle royals should be - a win leading to a future opportunity. Since the Royal Rumble matches lead to future main title shots at Wrestlemania, have the winner of either battle royal either get a future IC or US title shot for the men.

The women can have a spot in a future Triple Threat match or qualifying match for a title shot. And speaking of qualifying matches, how about giving the winner(s) an immediate slot in the Money in the Bank matches?

It would provide storylines up until the actual MITB PPV and could even have someone challenge the winners for their spots.

The main point is that while the battle royals are good for getting as many people on the card of Wrestlemania, the WWE hasn't done itself any favors in getting fans invested in the winner.

If we are to treat it as a match worthy of our attention, a bigger reward than just a big trophy needs to be awarded to the winners.
