5 Matches fans want to see in a cross-brand PPV
All over the world, there are many opportunities for technically gifted wrestlers to compete against one another, setting up some of the greatest moments in wrestling. When it comes to WWE, it is no different. Over the past few years, the company has brought in some of the most notable talent in the world to create moments within the promotion.
Whether it was Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Samoa Joe or AJ Styles, these notable athletes earned a name for themselves long before WWE came calling. However, now that they are with the company, several different possibilities appear to present themselves.
Despite not all being on the same brand, the potential for these stellar performers to face one another on a cross-brand pay per view is quite intriguing. We're not talking about a series of matches but rather a one-off matchup on a pay per view where both Smackdown Live and Raw are involved.
Which matches could turn heads, and which are one's fans would want to see? Here are five matches WWE fans would want to see in a cross-brand pay per view.
#5 AJ Styles vs. Samoa Joe
The adage good friends make great enemies couldn't be any truer when it comes to these two. As fans may or may not know, Joe and AJ are very good friends outside the ring. They have spent time together in other promotions, most notably TNA, facing off in the ring many times, and as it has turned out they are reunited in WWE.
Joe made his debut competing for NXT, while Styles went directly to the main roster after joining the company. As it stands right now, both men are competing as heels for their respective brands, Joe and Raw and Styles on SmackDown Live.
However, if a cross-brand pay per view was going to feature cross-brand matches, having these two cross paths would ensure an outstanding match from these two true professionals.
