5. Daniel Bryan Vs. Samoa Joe (WWE Title)

It's a dark day when you find yourself imploring WWE to move on from AJ Styles vs. Daniel Bryan matches, but that's what's being proposed here. It's high time Danny boy took on a different kind of challenge away from AJ's watchful gaze. Now he has some meaty backup in the form of Erick Rowan, it can be someone more imposing.

Joe! Joe! Joe!

Samoa Joe doesn't have anything to do right now aside from play pinball with Mustafa Ali's head against the ring posts, so it'd be awesome if he won Elimination Chamber and went on to challenge. He hasn't had that killer singles match at WrestleMania since joining WWE either, and that's why he'd make such a great pick for the WWE Title spot. This is an old ROH fan's wet dream.

Another option would be putting Bryan in there with both Joe and AJ. WWE have worked the Triple Threat gimmick before for World Title matches at 'Mania, and they'd rest easy knowing that trio would rip it up.
