#3 Squashing Samoa Joe

Much like other former NXT Superstars like Finn Balor or Booby Roode, Samoa Joe has often been underutilised and not pushed on the main roster. The former NXT Champion, who was a part of Team SmackDown was squashed in just 35 seconds in the men's 5-on-5 Survivor Series elimination match, by Drew McIntyre.

McIntyre delivered a Claymore Kick to Joe, in a match that was dominated by the two big men on RAW - Drew McIntyre and Braun Strowman.

It seemed like the match was set-up just to make the aforementioned two RAW Superstars look good and push them, and everyone else was just a pawn in their destruction.

It was a pity that Joe wasn't used well as he was the only legitimate big man who could have taken on McIntyre and Strowman from Team SmackDown.

It remains to be seen what Joe's future is on SmackDown with the potential feuds slowly diminishing, and it seems like he may go the Finn Balor way on the blue brand.
