I'd really love to see Kid and Law beat her ironically but that's only to hype them up, give them equivalent feats since Oda is making Luffy fight Kaido instead weirdly. It really should have been Kid, Killer and Law vs Kaido and Luffy, Zoro and Sanji vs Big Mom instead. Although Sanji would refuse to hit Big Mom....
I really feel Big Mom should have been Luffys main Yonko opponent here, all that setup since Fishman Island, through Zou and especially the WCI arc. What happened at WCI is extremely personal for Big Mom and the Strawhats alike so it baffles me that Oda is making Luffy fight Kaido and not Big Mom and making Kid and Law fight her, where Law was meant to have a plan to take down Kaido and Kid has way more personal history and reasons to take down Kaido and his crew, sigh.
But tbh, I think there's really good potential for Usopp to clash with Big Mom at specifically Elbaf too. Big Mom controls and kills people using fear and Usopp's whole thing is to be a "brave warrior of the sea" and not be so cowardly.
So who or what better to judge and test his mettle than Big Mom? Plus given both are associate to Elbaf, Big Mom is kinda like a giant despite not being one apparently, it adds up even better and helps to make a David vs Goliath scenario for Usopp.
I mean Usopp already has Hajrudin who was holding him up at Dressrosa and proclaiming him as "God Usopp" and he has Oimo, Kaashi, Dorry and Broggy already and also the New Giant Pirates thanks to Haj joining the fleet too ofc BUT imagine Elbaf witnessing not only Big Mom being humiliated and stood up to by a "mere mortal" like Usopp who would finally show no fear vs her? Usopp has fought women with BROKEN DF powers too before, Perona, Sugar, Baccarat in Film Gold and so on, so this would be the ultimate (what's the word) version I guess of that? The grand finale of that plotline/theme/setup?
Usopp is gonna be such a MASSIVE hero to Wano like Luffy and Zoro will be but also Usopp to the Tontattas and people of Dressrosa.
I'm sick of Big Meme but I really wonder how Oda is gonna handle her connections to Elbaf. I'd prefer her to go down here and not return for yet another arc and overshadow whoever is meant to headline that arc, like she did with Kaido here (until Onigashima happened but even then, her being directly responsible him getting his DF doesn't help too). If Elbaf is Shanks' arc, I don't want it being spoiled by Big Meme, who is like an ex who won't bloody leave you alone lmao.

I'm looking forward to the Ussop greatness too! Too many people sleep on him.
Elbaf is going to really fun. Also, more than anything, I want to see Big Mom's eventual realization that she ate mother Carmel and the other kids. It's all headcanon, but I believe this will make her have a change of heart and actually start regretting the things she did, including how she treats her family and the citizens of Tottoland. I might be one of the few, but I like Big Mom for what she is. Sure, she does stupid shit sometimes, but she also has the mind of a child in the body of a 68-year-old woman, so it's very believable at times.
While I wouldn't be surprised at Kid and Law taking her down, I don't think they'll straight up beat her since Luffy himself says he'll be the one to do it. If anything, they'll "defeat" her and force her to leave one way or the other.
