5. Braun Strowman
The likelihood of this happening is slim, to say the least. Braun Strowman is still developing as a wrestler. He is getting better with every passing week. Based on the confidence creative has placed at this mountain of a man, he would be showcased prominently at WrestleMania 33. However, would he be the one to step into the ring with Goldberg?
The dynamics of this match plays well into each other. Strowman is the classic monster heel of pro wrestling as he is big, fast and incredibly strong. He has been laying waste to everyone that dared to step into the ring against him. Goldberg, on the other hand, is a classic babyface. His character is the good guy, the superhero to the kids. The pairing mashes well on paper.
Strowman’s matches aren’t about pacing or long stretches of technical moves. It is all about brute strength. This should help Goldberg as well since we can’t expect him to put on a 20 minute fast paced bout. Both these men are excellent at displaying short bursts of high impact offense. However, on the flip side, the majority of the match would have to be carried by Strowman. That would be a major challenge for the monster among men. But if he does, it would be a great opportunity to catapult him to the main event scene of WWE Raw.
