How would you feel if you went to your work, and the boss told you that everyone working on a specific day was going to be given the biggest payday of the year, but not you because he just didn't want you getting that. Now you feel like a loser, your peers know your boss thinks less of you, etc.

The Battle Royale is a much better alternative to what they did in years past which was a random massive tag match (hell they did a 7 on 7 match at one point), or a lumberjack match. Plus it CAN be used to get some momentum rolling for whoever wins. Baron Corbin used it to launch his debut, Cesaro used it to launch a singles push (albeit one they held back, but still), hell even Mojo used it for a few months.


As for the match itself, it's next to impossible to pick, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's either Woken Matt Hardy, Brother Nero, or Bray Wyatt post-Reincarnation.
Except the WWE is pushing this whole your taking someone else's spot thing with the performance centre/nxt so if you miss Wrestlemania you should look at yourself and push to get there next year. There are plenty of wrestlers on the roster that can fill a spot. Suck it up or go make a living on the indies
