  • WWE Fastlane PPV 2017 Predictions!

    We-VVVVVRRRRRRRRRRRRRR-re on the F-VRRRRRRRRRR-lane to Wrestle-VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR-Mania!

    (Sorry those promo graphics on RAW are a tad annoying. Every few minutes, it’s always VRRRRRRRRRRRRR)

    Anyway, here we are with the 2017 predictions for the WWE PPV Fastlane.

    (C) = Champion Bold = WINNER

    Non-Title Matches
    • Sasha Banks vs Nia Jax – PREDICTION: Nia Jax. After RAW last night (Spoilers), it is going to turn out to be a squash match unless there is interferance from Bayley or someone else. If Bayley does interfere, it could be problematic later on in the PPV and I do not want Bayley to not fight!
    • Sami Zayn vs Samoa Joe – PREDICTION: Samoa to win. Ah, an old fued from NXT has been rekindled on RAW and we see these 2 square off once again. I don’t see any reason for Zayn to win this match so I would like that Samoa wins so that he looks strong going into Mania.
    • Roman Reigns vs Braun Strowman – PREDICTION: Braun to win. Oh look…It’s this shite again. I am getting angry at this non-existant fued…They are doing this so that Roman actually has a match, there is no reason for these guys to be in a fued. This match should have been Roman vs Undertaker after what happened at the Royal Rumble, but hey…beggers can’t be choosers.
    • Rich Swann & Akira Tozawa vs The Brian Kendrick & Noam Dar – PREDICTION: AHH! AHH! AHH! AHH! and Rich Swann to win. Yes, I know they are the face team and Brian/Noam need to look strong going into Mania and this match should help them going forward.
    Title Matches
    • Gallows & Anderson (C) vs Enzo and Cass for the WWE RAW Tag Team Championship – PREDICTION: Enzo & Cass. As it pains me to say, they are good on the mic…And just OK in the ring, but it would be massive POP for them to go into Mania as tag champs.
    • Neville (C) vs Jack Gallagher for the WWE Crusierweight Championship – PREDICTION: Neville to retain. He is going to hold onto this for a long time and Jack can’t get it right now. Hopefully Jack can face Tyler Bate for the UK Championship belt after Mania
    • Bayley (C) vs Charlotte Flair for the WWE RAW Women’s Championship – PREDICTION: Bayley to retain and Charlotte’s streak to break! Just like the Undertaker’s streak at Mania…Charlotte’s PPV win streak has to be broken and the only person right now that can do that is Bayley…with some help from Sasha. (Possible outcome…Sasha turning on Bayley and Charlotte getting the DQ win)
    • Kevin Owens (C) vs Goldberg for the WWE Universal Championship – PREDICTION: Goldberg to win! Yes, I know, it’s a cliche at this point where Goldberg is going to win in x amount of seconds, but this is going to be a long match which ends up hurting NOT JUST Goldberg but Owens as well. This should be a great match and I would like to see Goldberg go into Mania as Champ!

    And that is my predictions! What do you think will be the result of the PPV this Sunday night! I’ll be in Taima as usual at https://taima.tv/r/sc (Unless it breaks again)

    Enjoy! 🙂

  • WWE Elimination Chamber 2017 PPV Predictions

    Welcome to my predictions for the SmackDown LIVE Exclusive PPV, Elimination Chamber 2017! It has been 2 years since the last Elimination Chamber PPV.

    In 2015, we seen Ryback obtaining the Intercontinental championship, Dean Ambrose won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and Kevin Owens had won against John Cena while still holding the NXT Championship.

    A lot has happened in the 2 years since and now it’s time to run down the predictions!

    (c)= Champion – Bold Name = Winner

    Non-Title Matches:

    • Luke Harper vs Randy Orton – PREDICTION: Randy Orton. It seems kinda baffling that Randy Orton would lose to someone like Luke Harper. Outside of this recent ‘family fued’, they have never fought in a 1v1 match before. Luke is good, but not good enough to win against Orton.
    • Nikki Bella vs Natalya – PREDICTION: Nikki Bella needs to get back into the title scene and the way to do this is to fight against Natalya and then perhaps jump in the fight with Alexa later into the night.
    • Becky Lynch vs Mickie James – PREDICTION: Becky Lynch. I honestly do not see a good sustainable future for Mickie James. Personally, I feel that her time in WWE should have be finished and done with after that NXT match with Asuka or even better yet, keep her in NXT for a while. SDLive has enough of talent at the moment.
    • Apollo Crews & Kalisto vs Dolph Ziggler in a 2-on-1 Handicap Match. – PREDICTION: Apollo & Kalisto with Apollo to pick up the win. This was a thing? Heh…ok, Um…well..Jobber match. Dolph needs to get out of this shtick that he is in and get into the IC title scene again. I don’t know what WWE are trying to achieve with him at the moment.

    Title Matches:

    • American Alpha (c) vs The Usos, Heath Slater & Rhyno, The Ascension, Breezango & The Vaudevillains in a Tag Team Turmoil Match for the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championships. – PREDICTION: Alpha to retain. Other the Usos, who the hell would you give the belts to. I know you could give it back to Slater & Rhyno, but honestly, this seems like a snooze fest. PISS BREAK to be quite honest.
    • Alexa Bliss (c) vs Naomi for the WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship – PREDICTION: Alexa to retain. I was worried that Alexa was going to be a chicken-shit heel and was going to run away from the matches against the bigger women, but no, this should be a good fight and I am actually looking forward as I do like Naomi. (Can we forget about Heel Naomi from last year shudder )
    • John Cena (c) vs Dean Ambrose vs AJ Styles vs Bray Wyatt vs The Miz vs Baron Corbin in a Elimination Chamber match for the WWE Championship. – PREDICTION: Big Match John to retain. I would like to think that WWE has a plan to keep him and the belt together until WM33. This would be awesome and it should be set in stone. It would be a nice surprise for The Miz to get the belt.

    And that is the predictions. I will be staying up this Sunday for the PPV, and I will be watching in Taima /r/sc so join us there 🙂
