5 Dream Matches made possible by the Superstar Shake-up

​

Last year the Superstar Shake-up was an uneventful affair that saw wrestlers randomly appear on a new show with little to no explanation. Monday Night Raw was the clear benefactor the first time around, but this year it seems that SmackDown got the better deal.

Either way, there are a handful of fresh new match-ups that can now be booked, even some dream matches fans have been clamoring for years to see. For the purpose of this list, each wrestler is limited to just one entry (mainly so that the likes of AJ Styles and the medically cleared Daniel Bryan don't take up the whole list).

#5 Baron Corbin vs. Braun Strowman

Some people may look at this match-up and write it off as a stereotypical big man vs big man, monster vs monster match, but it can be so much more. Corbin and Strowman have established themselves as THE big men of WWE's new era. Strowman has man-handled Brock Lesnar and Corbin has won the United States Championship during his time on the blue brand.

Both men can go in the ring, shockingly quick and agile for men his size, Corbin can slide in and out of the ring as easily as Randy Orton, meanwhile Strowman billed at 385 lbs can perform a dropkick. Both men have shown a complete lack of empathy and an appetite for destruction, and while we all remember the multitude of Attitude Era-esque stunts Strowman has pulled on Raw let's not forget that on SmackDown Corbin once crushed Dean Ambrose with a forklift.

The Lone Wolf and the Monster Among Men have had just one encounter to this point, when Corbin eliminated Strowman from the 2017 Royal Rumble match. While some may not see Corbin as credible enough, consider this; Corbin's finishing move the End of Days has yet to be kicked out of. This raises the question, does Corbin manage to hit the End of Days on Strowman? And if so, does Strowman kick out?
