4. Cesaro

The tandem of Sheamus and Cesaro is a temporary fix, fans have known that since the two joined forces to quell the issue of either man growing stagnant in the singles division, and so despite the ever-growing sense of chemistry that he and Sheamus have showcased since Mick Foley put them on the same side of the fight, it’s inevitable that both men will go their separate ways before too long.

That’s bound to result in yet another singles feud between the two, but after that, the WWE will want to give both Sheamus and Cesaro top-level stories to work with so as not to put them right back where they were last summer – with nowhere to go.

A rivalry between Cesaro and Samoa Joe would be an incredible display of physicality, with both men possessing a spectacular arsenal of power moves and a heavy-hitting style that would complement one another to perfection for a battle of wills.

What helps is that with Samoa Joe perched to be the most talked-about star on the Raw roster over the next few months, Cesaro in particular will benefit from being in a feud with someone who might help him increase his own stock.
