WWE WrestleMania 33: 5 NXT Superstars who can be part of the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal

Who could surprise us during the 2017 Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal?

The first Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal took place in WrestleMania 30. Since then we have seen two more iterations of the Battle Royal honouring the late-great Andre The Giant at both WrestleMania 31 and 32.

Cesaro, Big Show and Baron Corbin have won the first three editions of the ATGMBR. Out of the three of them, Baron Corbin was the only Superstar whose victory meant something in the long run i.e. his victory was the only one WWE capitalised on with a big push.

Another interesting point to note is that Baron Corbin won the ATGMBR on his main-roster debut. Could we see something similar this year?

In this article we take a look at 5 members of the NXT roster who could make their debut at this year’s Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal.


#5 Dylan Miley

First things first, Dylan Miley is more wishful thinking than anything else. He has a negligible chance of featuring in the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal. However, if  WWE does have him debut at WrestleMania, it could really help in building him up. Who is Dylan Miley, you ask?

Standing at 6 foot 3 inches tall and weighing in at over 300 pounds, the former Football player is one of WWE’s best-kept secrets. Having trained at the WWE Performance Center for 3 years, WWE is waiting for the right opportunity to unleash him, as they did when Braun Strowman debuted for the Wyatt Family.

To say that Miley is built like a truck is an understatement. The size of his hands that are comparable to those of Andre himself. He also has a 37-inch vertical leap and is being built to someday take Brock Lesnar’s place.

Miley’s WWE debut will come sooner rather than later, but if it was upto this writer, he’d debut at the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal and leave a swathe of devastation behind him. What a debut that would be.
