10 WWE Stars Samoa Joe MUST Face If He Returns To The Ring

Joe has stated that there are two guys at the top of his list, and Karrion Kross is one of them.

Seeing these two lock eyes on NXT TV was electrifying, and WWE would be very cruel not to pay that excitement off with a bout. The current NXT Champion is having a fantastic run, and bringing him fresh challenges is something that NXT need to do to keep him feeling strong. Who better than one of the most feared men in the wrestling world?

Samoa Joe vs. Karrion Kross would be a battle for the ages, as even if they met on a bad day and had poor chemistry, they'd still undoubtedly pull off some massive moves that make both of them look like monsters. A slightly slower pacing and focus on more brutal hitting moves would also potentially make this a weighty and powerful showdown.

Plus, we've seen Joe take to using cheap measures to get a rise out of his opponents (lest we not forget "our girl Wendy" from his feud with AJ Styles), so chucking Scarlett into the mix could also be a recipe for dynamite. Meaning this match would have a great story to coincide with the hard-hitting action.
