1. Brock Lesnar

Once he finishes up his rivalry against Goldberg at WrestleMania once and for all, Brock Lesnar is going to be in need of a brand new adversary to keep him relevant in the WWE, and to potentially help him get over the stigma of being leveled by Goldberg twice – potentially three times – over the course of six months.

Samoa Joe would be the perfect man to believably go toe-to-toe with “The Beast”.

Fans have been discussing the potential of a match between Brock Lesnar and Samoa Joe since the latter first signed a contract, because with the man’s consistent ability to make his matches look and feel like legitimate fights – no matter who he finds himself across the ring from – Joe is one of few men on the WWE roster who could believably give Brock Lesnar a run for his money in a one-on-one affair.

Both men carry an intimidating aura with them to the ring that, paired off against one another, could result in one of the most ferocious fights of either man’s entire wrestling career. It’s a match that Samoa Joe doesn’t need to win in order to benefit from it, and a huge win over Samoa Joe in a hard-hitting brawl would do wonders for Brock Lesnar’s confidence as he attempts to get over his losses to Goldberg.
