Pre-Show Six Man Tag Team Match - Neville & The Lucha Dragons Vs. The Cosmic Wasteland
This is a continuation of the storyline between Stardust and Neville from SummerSlam but sadly, without the Green Arrow’s involvement. Not much time has been given to this story and I’m not quite sure where the decision came from to include the Lucha Dragons and The Ascension in this story. With that being said, the match should be entertaining to a degree and will likely whet your appetite for what’s to come later that night.
Prediction: The Cosmic Wasteland. Seeing as they’re a new team and have a new name
Dolph Ziggler Vs. Rusev
This feud has been going on far too long and sadly, with the lack of Lana due to injury, this match is likely going to just keep things simmering until her return. Recently, we had the change of direction with Ziggler giving Summer a gift behind Rusev’s back so maybe something similar will happen in the match which will distract Rusev, costing him the match. Either way, this angle is getting old, and fast.
Prediction: Dolph Ziggler via distraction roll up.
The Wyatt Family Vs. Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns and a mystery partner
There has been a lot of speculation that Daniel Bryan might be the mystery partner to assist the former Shield members in this match. As much as I would like that to be true, I just don’t see the logic in it. That doesn’t mean that it won’t happen as logic isn’t always the strong point when it comes to recent WWE storylines. Unfortunately, I can see the mystery partner being Randy Orton. Another possible return is on the Wyatt side as Erick Rowan might prevent the former Shield members from gaining the victory.
Prediction: The Wyatt Family. They need to get a win back after losing at SummerSlam
WWE Tag Team Championship Match - The New Day Vs. The Dudley Boyz
Probably the most exciting thing on WWE TV at the moment, The New Day. They will defend against the returning Dudley Boyz. The Dudley’s are gunning for their 10th WWE Tag Team Championship and while I think they will undoubtedly get that honour, I don’t think it’ll be at this show. I think The New Day have too much momentum to lose the titles at this stage and think that Dudley’s might be held off to regain the championship until later this year. I could see the Dudley’s regaining the Championship at TLC in December and by that point, we may even have the Hardy Boyz back?
Prediction: The New Day
WWE Intercontinental Championship Match - Ryback Vs. Kevin Owens
This match was put together very quickly this past Monday on RAW. I didn’t really care for the interaction they had and to be honest, I’m not really feeling Ryback’s reign as Champion thus far. I think the smart option here would be to put the Championship on Owens to keep his momentum going and then possibly revisiting his previous feud with Cesaro with the Championship involved.
Prediction: new champ Kevin Owens
WWE Divas Championship Match - Nikki Bella Vs. Charlotte
I completely understand why WWE did what they did but that doesn’t mean I have to like it. The whole situation felt far too political and most importantly, it didn’t feel logical. WWE had a chance this past Monday to make this ‘Divas Revolution’ actually become a revolution but instead it was held off for this event. I suspect Charlotte will obtain a victory here but it’ll have lost a bit of its punch after seeing the false win on RAW.
Prediction: new champ Charlotte
WWE United States Championship - Seth Rollins Vs. John Cena
WWE World Heavyweight Championship - Seth Rollins Vs. Sting
I think that this marathon night for Seth Rollins is designed to make him look more credible. We all know that the ultimate goal here is to have Seth Rollins turn face and go up against Triple H. I think WWE is now in the process of planting seeds for Seth to become more independent and more credible. Therefore, I believe they will have Rollins beat both Sting and Cena just so he can brag (like Jericho) that he beat two top talents in the same night for the ultimate prize. I would also love it if Sheamus cashed in and Rollins still managed to walk away with the title so he can say he beat John Cena, Sting and Sheamus in the same night but I doubt WWE would take it that far.
Prediction: Seth Rollins to retain both titles
