Welcome everyone to the WWE Survivors 2016 PPV Predictions post.
This would be the first PPV since the Brand Split that RAW goes up against SmackDown Live.

It is a fun-filled card, so let’s get into it!

(C) – Champion / in bold – winner

---

Non-Title Matches

Brock Lesnar vs Goldberg – PREDICTION: Goldberg. It would be nice for him to get this win over Brock Lesnar. But to be honest, Brock will probably dominate him.

Team RAW* vs Team Smackdown Live** in a 5v5 Survival Series Men’s Elimination Match.- PREDICTION: Team Smackdown Live.

Team RAW$ vs Team Smackdown Live$$ in a 5v5 Survival Series Women’s Elimination Match. – PREDICTION: Team RAW.

Team RAW& vs Team Smackdown&& in a 10v10 Survival Series Tag Team Elimination Match. – PREDICTION: Team RAW.

These choices are based on the people in those teams and who I think is the strongest out of the lot of them.

Title Matches

Sami Zayn vs The Mix(c) for the WWE Intercontinental Championship. Winner will take the IC title to the relevant brand. – PREDICTION: Sami Zayn. As #205Live is going to be showing on WWE Network after Smackdown, it would make sense for RAW to gain to the IC title while losing the Crusierweight Division to Smackdown LIVE.

Brian Kendrick(c) vs Kalisto for the WWE Crusierweight Championshop. Winner will get the entire Crusierweight Division. PREDICTION: Kalisto. See above.

And that is it. I am really looking forward to watching this on Sunday night and I hope you do to! I will be in Taima/r/sc on Sunday night before the show starts! See you there!

Welcome to my HIAC prediction series.

It has been over a year since I started doing these predictions and I feel like I have a knack for this wrestling thing….So let’s keep it going!

Non-Title Matches

Enzo Amore & Big Cass vs. Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson – PREDICTION: The Club. It would be nice for them to be a threat to the tag teams and thus it should be nice for them to with Enzo & Cass.

Title Matches

The New Day (c) vs Cesaro & Sheamus for the WWE RAW Tag Team Championships – PREDICTION: The New Day – I honestly cannot see Cesaro and Sheamus gaining the belts and breaking the records that The New Day is trying to break. It would be nice for them to hold it for another while…possibly until Wrestlmania.

TJ Perkins (c) vs Brian Kendrick for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship – PREDICTION: Brian Kendrick – It is time for the belt to change hands, I thik I have only seen TJP fight twice since getting that belt and should be a nice win for Brian!

Roman Reigns (c) vs Rusev in HELL IN A CELL for the WWE United States Championship – PREDICTION: Roman to retain. I actually want Roman to retain as it would show his domination over Rusev.

Kevin Owens (c) vs Seth Rollings in HELL IN A CELL for the WWE Universal Championship – PREDICTION: Seth Rollings – It would be nice for him to get back the title that he never lost properly and this time in the form of the UC! Go get it Seth!

Sasha Banks (c) vs Charlotte Flair in HELL IN A CELL for the WWE Raw Women’s Championship – PREDICTION: Sasha to retain – It would be nice for Sasha to retain as she is a great fighter and it would make sense for her to retain this title.

I could see a couple of long matches given the few matches (mostly the UC and Women’s match)

Roll on Sunday!

I could have sworn this was next Sunday, but it is THIS Sunday

Anyway, here is the predictions for this Sunday’s WWE PPV, No Mercy!

(c) = Champion

Bold = Winner

Non-Title Matches

Randy Orton vs Bray Wyatt – PREDICTION: Bray Wyatt. It is time for Bray to break the loss streak in PPV’s and it would make him look big. Bigger than he has ever been.

Jack Swagger vs Baron Corbin – PREDICTION: Jack Swagger. Announced Wednesday evening…Jack Swagger just got signed to SD Live, so it would be nice if he got the win, just to give him a push! It’s Swaggie Time!

Title Matches

The Miz (c) vs Dolph Ziggler in a Championship vs Career for the WWE Intercontinental Championship. If Ziggler loses, he must retire. PREDICTION: Dolph Ziggler – We have been screaming fora DZ Push and it would be a BIG upset if The Miz was to win.

Heath Slater & Rhyno (c) vs The Usos for the WWE Smackdown Tag Team Championship – PREDICTION: Heath & Rhyno – I can see them have a story line, but Rhyno needs to get involved more and stop having Heath taking centre stage. But alas, they are good and they deserve to keep the belts.

Becky Lynch (c) vs Alexa Bliss for the WWE Smackdown Women’s Championship – PREDICTION: Becky Lynch – Alexa is not ready to be a title holder and it would pain me if Becky was to drop the title. (22:57 – Looks like this match is off due to Becky Lynch reporting sick – Source) so with that said:

Naomi vs Alexa Bliss in a NON-Title Match – Naomi won…

Dean Ambrose vs John Cena vs AJ Styles (c) in a Triple Threat for the WWE World Championship: PREDICTION: John Cena. (I forgot about this match) – John Cena will go 16 time to match the man and he is going to beat the champ the runs the camp to become the man!

And that is it for now… I am sure that there will be more matches tonight on Smackdown Live at 1am!

Updates on Monday!

EDIT: I missed out on the 8-man tag that happened on the preshow (Winner: The Hype Bros & American Alpha)

Nikki Bella vs Carmella was also forgotten about. There were last minute booking decisions that I didn’t see and on top of that I didn’t watch SDLive last week. 😛
