The Wrestlemania battle royals are all about elevating someone to the mid card for the next year, but buried in this whole mess is the Braun versus the SNL news guys. Its amazing how far Braun has fallen in a short time, mainly due to mobility issues and unispired booking. But I doubt that he's anything but ripe for an upset. I would love to see Andrade win this just because he's probably the best name of the bunch Winner Andrade

I'm just mad that a healthy Kevin Owens doesn't have a Mania match, so I'm picking him.

Woman's Battle Royal (Kickoff Show)
Again same premise, this is the best of the rest with the winner getting bumped. As much as people are crying for Ahsuka to win this, it really doesn't do anything for her to win this. I would think that Mandy Rose is going to get a major push this year ready or not. Winner Mandy Rose (After she screws over her buddy Sonya Deville who is very good)
|
Gonna say this is where they attempt to heat up Lacey Evans
Quote:
Cruiserweight Championship -- Buddy Murphy (c) vs. Tony Nese (Kickoff Show)
This should be a really good match and really belongs on the main card. But as much as I think that Buddy is gold, I think that its time to elevate Nese. Winner and new Cruiserweight Champion Tony Nese
|
Buddy isn't losing to Nese.
Quote:
SmackDown Tag Team Championship -- The Usos (c) vs. Ricochet & Aleister Black vs. The Bar vs. Rusev & Shinsuke Nakamura think its just going to be time for Ricochet and Black to win this thing, Nakamura has been a major disappointment this year and that's on him, Rusev has been doing too much social media crying. The Uso's don't need to be champions, and I love the Bar but they don't need the belts. Winner and new tag team champions Ricochet and Black
|
Yeah, I think after going 0-2 on the Raw and NXT belts, Black and Ricochet come through here.
Quote:
Kurt Angle vs. Baron Corbin (Farewell Match)
Seriously people this isn't going to be a pass the torch moment this is all about Kurt. Winner Kurt Angle
|
Winner: John Cena
The Miz vs. Shane McMahon (Falls Count Anywhere)[/B]
I've always been a fan of the Miz as a heel, and he's been food as the baby face in this feud. However it is the battle of the two fakest looking offenses on the roster. Expect Shane to do something stupid, but there's too much benefit for the Miz to win this thing so he will.Winner The Miz after his dad screws Shane
[/QUOTE]
I'm going the opposite direction and saying Miz's dad screws Miz over.
Quote:
Women's Tag Team Championship-- Sasha Banks & Bayley (c) vs. Beth Phoenix & Natalya vs. Nia Jax & Tamina Snuka vs. The IIconics
Maybe its me, but Bayley and Sasha have floundered a bit as tag team champions and have become a bit unlikable. Its cool that Beth is back, I always liked her, but she's not coming back fulltime. I hate Jax and Sunka who are awful. I would love to see the Iconics win this as they are so much fun to watch. But I expect that Banks and Bayley retain and fued with Io and Sane next. Winners and still champions, Banks and Bayley.
|
Don't know what's next for this belt but I expect the champs to retain.
Quote:
United States Championship -- Samoa Joe (c) vs. Rey Mysterio
I love Joe, Rey isn't that interesting and he's going to lose[B]. Winner and still champion Samoa Joe.
|
I think Joe drops the Belt and moves on to a feud with Kofi.
Quote:
Intercontinental Championship -- Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Finn Balor
This is a good match to take your dog for a walk and laugh as he poo's on the neighbors lawn. The real winners of this match is skip the dishes. I expect that Demon Finn will find a way to win this, but boring. Winner and new US Champion Demon Finn
|
I agree with all of this.
Quote:
Triple H vs. Batista (No Holds Barred; Triple H's career on the line)
This match will be all kinds of horrible and HHH is not the wrestler he used to be and Batista hasn't wrestled in how long. But I doubt that they're going to take away HHH's ring career, and he has a habit of burying people at Wrestlemania. Look for the rest of Evolution to interfere in the match and cost Batista his win. The Winner and still shoveller HHH
|
They kind of gave this ending away when they put HHH's career on the line. No way he's retiring when they still have Saudi money to play with.
Quote:
AJ Styles vs. Randy Orton
Randy Orton is just boring, he is he is. I'll take AJ Styles. The Winner of the match AJ Styles
|
They've hyped this as indie guy vs. WWE franchise player. No way Vince lets indie guy win. Orton wins
Quote:
Roman Reigns vs. Drew McIntyre
Do you honestly think that Roman returning from Luekemia is going to lose this match. Come on people. He's going to kick out of 14 Claymores and land a superman punch.
Winner Roman Reigns
|
Pretty much.
Quote:
WWE Championship-- Daniel Bryan (c) vs. Kofi Kingston
We all want the feel good story of Kofi winning this. But Daniel has been over the top good as a heel champion. Expect Rowan to interfere and to have this feud continue. Winner Daniel Bryan
|
Kofi wisn this or there's a riot.
Quote:
Universal Championship -- Brock Lesnar (c) vs. Seth Rollins
I think event he WWE knows that Brock has run this race for as long as he can. Seth did ok as a champion before, and he's going to be the guy for a while until Reigns beats him for the belt. Winner and new Champion Seth Rollins
|
Sounds like Lesnar and Cormier is scheduled for the end of August, which means Lesnar likely has time for another Saudi payday before he has to go to camp. I'm expecting him to win this and then drop the belt to Roman in KSA.
Quote:
Winner Take All- Ronda Rousey (c) vs. Charlotte Flair (c) vs. Becky Lynch
The booking on this has frankly been a mess, and Charlotte doesn't have to be in every championship question. The arrest video on Monday was fun but nonsense. At the same time, there are questions around Ronda going off to shoot out a family. I expect that this is going to kick off a 3 vs 3 horsewoman battle with Becky, Charlotte and Sasha vs Shayna, Shaffir and Duke. I expect Ronda to lose the belt here to the man, but know that Charlottes going to win . . . again. Winner and new unified champion Charlotte Flair
|
I don't think there's much of a storyline here if Charlotte wins. We just had Becky vs. Charlotte for the better part of a year and it doesn't make sense to send Becky back to chasing her again. Feels like it should be a coronation for Becky.
