Wrestling Style: Striking and submissions

Samoa Joe was once thought to be an unlikely candidate for the WWE, but he has not only signed with the company, but thrived.

He captured the NXT championship from Finn Balor before his move to the main roster. After feuding with AJ Styles for the WWE Championship, he managed to win the United States title. Can he walk out of WrestleMania 35 with his new belt?

Odds of leaving Wrestlemania 35 with the championship: 70-30. As of this writing, it's uncertain who Joe will be facing at the WrestleMania 35. He has already defeated R Truth, the former champion, and serious contenders Andrade and Rey Misterio.

Rumors of a possible dream match against John Cena continue to circulate, but Joe is just settling into his role as US champion and it seems like the WWE will likely keep the belt on him for the time being.
