Since 2014, the wrestling world has been looking forward to one particular highlight during WWE WrestleMania weekend.
The Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal – whoever wins this on the grand stage of WrestleMania – or now on the pre-WrestleMania SmackDown – is definitely turning some heads.
Seriously though, with 2025 Royal Rumble winner Jey Uso for example, who won the Andre Battle Royal in 2021, it often gives us a glimpse at potential WWE stars of the future and main eventers.
This year’s pre-WrestleMania SmackDown is going to last three hours, which is perhaps a good idea for a long-lasting and loaded Battle Royal.
But who could win it this year? Here are five potential 2025 WWE Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal winners.
5. Sheamus
Call 1-800-FELLA, because the Irish-born WWE legend is here to collect accolades.
Amazingly, Sheamus has captured almost every accolade in WWE that there is to get.
The Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal is one of the few exceptions.
With the Intercontinental Championship seemingly already occupied for WrestleMania, it not seems that there might not be much room for the Celtic Warrior unless anything changes over the next few weeks.
Ultimately, it might be the best for him to enter the Battle Royal and win it, showing everyone that he still has a lot left in the tank.

4. Tony D’Angelo
The leader of the D’Angelo Family seems ready for the WWE main roster.
Potentially this year’s NXT entrant into the Battle Royal, he could actually make a great argument to come out as the potential winner.
Whether he is going to show up with his Family in tow remains to be seen, as in the end his victory would immediately position him as a threat on the main roster.
Especially if he would eliminate his arch-rival Santos Escobar in a throwback moment that fans of NXT 2.0 would love.

3. Ilja Dragunov
According to the latest rumours, Ilja Dragunov is on the way to being ready to compete again after suffering an ACL injury last year.
Undoubtedly winning the prestigious trophy would catapult the generational talent of Ilja Dragunov right back to a firm position on the card.
It is an open secret that Ilja Dragunov is one of the wrestlers on the WWE roster with the most untapped potential and an Andre The Giant Battle Royal victory is exactly what he needs to show the world.
Just like many names in the past, he could use it to propel him into something bigger.

2. Carmelo Hayes
It is time for Melo to not Miss again. The last few months have not been exactly great for one of the most celebrated WWE NXT Champions in recent memory.
Sadly, Carmelo Hayes just hasn’t felt the same on the main roster, and it might be time for HIM to remind everyone of what he is capable of.
Seeing Hayes eliminate some of the biggest threats in the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal could position him as the eventual winner of the match.
In addition, he is the right candidate to have a match within the match against the likes of Escobar, Andrade or Dragunov.

1. Jacob Fatu
Arguably the hottest candidate for this year’s Andre Battle Royal.
The only thing that could stop Fatu from absolutely decimating this match is a rumoured match against Solo Sikoa or LA Knight at WWE WrestleMania instead.
If neither of those are booked for Mania, let’s just pray for everyone else involved in the Battle Royal.
There is no stopping Jacob Fatu and that will show when he slams, breaks and punches everyone outside the ring to win the Andre The Giant Memorial trophy.
