Tag team wrestling has been one of WWE's biggest highlights throughout 2017, with duos like The Usos, New Day, Bar, and Shield delivering a regular conveyor belt of outstanding pay-per-view matches. As stuffed as the ranks are, though, there's always room for more, and War Machine would make a tremendous acquisition.

The company have approached Ray Rowe in the past, but the burly Texan refused to joined without his partner Hanson. Now, it's widely thought that both will sign with the company sometime in 2018, as they've already started winding down their indie schedule, and recently dropped their last couple of titles, opening the door for a big-league signing.

War Machine are one of the most prolific teams on the planet. They've been having great matches all around the world in 2017, with their ROH/NJPW series against The Young Bucks a particular highlight. Stylistically, they combine the hard-hitting offence of classic power-based teams like The Road Warriors with shocking levels of athleticism, with Hanson oddly sprightly for a near-300lber, and Rowe among the indies' most complete workers.

There's no doubt they'd get over in WWE.
