7. AJ Styles As The Andre The Giant Battle Royal Winner
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that Braun Strowman is the planned winner of the Andre The Giant Battle Royal at WrestleMania 32. Obviously Strowman is a favourite because he's a giant, and WWE likely see the Andre trophy as a way to push him on to greater things. But there's another guy right now who the company are pushing, a guy who doesn't really have a definitive spot worked out for 'Mania, and that man is AJ Styles. Booking Styles in the Battle Royal would get him on the 'Mania card, and having him leave with the trophy would ensure he leaves the show in a strong position. It would be a statement, a sign of intent from WWE to make Styles a force to be reckoned with. Given how impressed the company must be with his initial showings at Royal Rumble and on Raw and Smackdown, they might just consider this change and have him spotlighted more on the grand stage.
