6. Samoa Joe

Joe is a shoe-in to reach the latter knockings of this KOTR tourney and then fall to the eventual winner. He's obviously 10x more likely than anyone before him on this list, but he doesn't stand out from the 16-strong pack like Kevin Owens or Drew McIntyre does.

Still, a few bruising squash match wins like the one he enjoyed over Sami Zayn on Raw wouldn't go amiss.

The Samoan needs credibility in spades if he's going to bounce back from yet another failed World Title try. A King Of The Ring win would do that, and so would a respectable, protracted period in the brackets without elimination.
