![]() Geno Mrosko: I think this could work for either story, but what could be really interesting is newfound tension between Cody and Jey. Undisputed Tag Team Championship: The Judgment Day (c) vs. Marcus Benjamin: They don’t take the belt away from IYO right now. Knight: It feels like they’ve already exhausted every combination of match featuring these three women. ![]() Pick: Iyo SkyĬlaire Elizabeth: Yeah this is the crack in Damage CTRL deepening- Bayley stuck her foot in her mouth again accepting the challenge (and I think there’s a nonzero chance that the real story here is a very “heel with no friends finally feels like she has real friends and doesn’t want to screw it up” beat rather than anything else) but not breaking, and IYO reigns to fight another day. Though Bayley eventually costing Iyo her title is a distinct possibility, but I’m not feeling it just yet. Kyle Decker: A triple threat often protects the challenger and I think it will here. It’s only three losses, but still enough for me to take the snark out of this prediction. Sean Rueter: In preparation for a snarky joke about The Queen, did some research and found out she hasn’t won on PPV/PLE since last year’s WrestleMania. Geno Mrosko: I’m going to say they really and truly go all out for NXT next week and put the title back on Asuka just so she’s champion going into her match with Roxanne Perez. A stepping stone to the bigger prize that he may or may not win one day, but seeing LA standing shoulder-to-shoulder with John Cena creates a lasting image. Marcus Benjamin: This is the moment the arena loses their minds and LA Knight gets the biggest rub of his career. Knight: The Bloodline isn’t going over John Cena or LA Knight on PPV when Roman Reigns isn’t around. Pick: John Cena & LA KnightĬlaire Elizabeth: Yes yes, the guest star legend and the rising star are going to lose to Jim Uso and His Brother, that’s how it’s gonna go. ![]() Knight can pin Jim Uce here and build to a match with the Tribal Chief. Kyle Decker: They’re not putting a rocket strap on LA Knight to have him get pinned in a Bloodline match without the important member of the Bloodline involved. Since beating his partner would be a really dumb move anyway, this is an easy time to get him off the schneid. But he needs to win on occasion to maximize his value in the “putting people over” phase of his career. Geno Mrosko: It sure feels like the babyfaces should win here, especially considering there’s no way they have Knight take a loss here and Cena isn’t getting pinned. I see arguments for multiple outcomes here but I’m siding with what I want to happen vs. Much more than their previous match, actually. Knight: The Raw segments have been very lopsided in Nakamura’s favor, which means he’s doing the job on PPV. Pick: Seth Freakin’Ĭlaire Elizabeth: I feel like I’m gonna be wrong, but dangit we aren’t breaking any records here, let’s do the change! Rollins isn’t gonna get any worse for lack of the title, Judgment Day drama is likely to keep Priest from cashing in, Shinsuke’s doing great work and I’d like to see him do it on the champion’s side of the call sheet. That said, I still don’t think he’s winning here and much like last time, a title change is more likely to be Damian Priest over Nak. It’s been too long for them to realize “Let’s let him cut badass promos in Japanese and we’ll use subtitles.” (Not that can’t cut a decent promo in English.) And a ruthless Nakamura who at the same time just doesn’t give a f*** is his best form. Kyle Decker: They’ve really unlocked the best WWE version of Shin here with both his character an presentation. But while he’s been booked very well, I’m back to remembering how WWE sees him and can’t even see it as a vehicle to a cash-in. Sean Rueter: Last time around I talked myself into picking the King of Strong Style. Geno Mrosko: I like everything they’ve done with not just the program but the Nakamura character but they haven’t done enough to make me believe they’re going to do a title change.
