7) Samoa Joe Will Make His Debut

There have been rumors and speculation for the past several months about Samoa Joe getting called up to the WWE main roster, but it still hasn’t happened.

I think the 2017 Royal Rumble will be the place where Joe makes his debut. Joe is already a big name based on his work prior to joining WWE. Joe has been taken off NXT TV and it looks like his time could be now.

What better way for him to debut than to enter the Royal Rumble match and make a big impact on his first night on the main roster?

There have been rumors that Joe could be set for a big push heading into Wrestlemania 33. If that is the case, I could see him being a big factor in this years Rumble and he could possibly even win it. He couldn’t make much better of a debut than if he won the Rumble and main evented Wrestlemania….It would be a pretty interesting twist and something that could get fans very excited.
