8 Likeliest NXT Debuts At WWE Royal Rumble 2016

5. Samoa Joe

Samoa Joe in the Royal Rumble would be a great pop moment for the smart fans, especially if his old nemesis AJ Styles is in the mix. Just imagine the exchanges between the two indie legends! It would also be neat to see him mixing it up with some of the WWE stars, and the Rumble would be the opportunity for the company to experiment with that. There's no plans to have him going full time on Raw, but a night at the Rumble is a chance to at least let him have a moment in the spotlight. The other thing to look out for, would be Joe squaring up to Brock Lesnar. That'd be a great spot to pop the audience, with The Beast ultimately eliminating the Samoan Suplex Machine.
