WWE Fastlane Predictions

The Road To Wrestlemania continues today with WWE Fastlane. My predictions are based on my own views of wrestling and how it is presented by WWE. I also do not read the odds before posting my predictions. So here goes!

WWE Championship Match
Daniel Bryan (c) vs. Kevin Owens – I think Daniel Bryan will retain. Especially since WWE would be stupid not to capitalize off the Daniel Bryan vs Kofi heat, which seems to be the only thing in the men’s division people have really gotten invested in this year.

RAW Women’s Championship Qualifier
Becky Lynch vs. Charlotte Flair — If Becky wins, she will be added to the Raw Women’s Championship Match at WrestleMania – If Becky loses we riot!

Six-Man Tag Team Match
The Shield vs. Drew McIntyre, Bobby Lashley & Baron Corbin – The Sheild… Unless they murder each other.

WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship Match
The Boss ‘N’ Hug Connection (c) vs. Nia Jax & Tamina – I really would like to see the belts on Nia and Tamina. It would be great to see them walking into Wrestlemania with the titles. But at the same time, WWE knows the B N H Connection appeals to little girls. Will they see their hero’s fall tonight?

SmackDown Tag Team Championship Match
The Usos (c) vs. The Miz & Shane McMahon – Why? I would like to see the Uso’d retain to take on a real team at Mania.

SmackDown Women’s Championship Match
Asuka (c) vs. Mandy Rose – Are they still doing the Mandy Rose is a homewrecker storyline? if so, it would be nice to see her win by cheating so Naomi can kick her ass at Wrestlemania.

Raw Tag Team Championship Triple Threat Match
The Revival (c) vs. Aleister Black & Ricochet vs. Bobby Roode & Chad Gable – This match sounds fun. I would love to see the belts on Alester Black and Ricochet, however, the Revival will most likely retain.

Fastlane Kickoff Match
The New Day (Big E & Xavier Woods) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura & Rusev – This also sounds fun. Whose day will it be? I am going with the New Day, unless Daniel Bryans lackey Rowan goes after Kofi, which could very likely happen.

Fastlane Kickoff Match
Rey Mysterio vs. Andrade – the crowd wins. WHY IS THIS A KICKOFF MATCH? Andrade is going to win because he is a dirty cheater, but really this match will be one of tonight’s more energetic matches.

This event looks more promising entertainment wise than the last few months attractions. Betting odds are LIVE now and are open until bell time of each match. Click here for more info.

WWE News and Rumors July 5, 2017

John Cena Teams Up with Shinsuke Nakamura

After the 205 Live broadcast Tuesday night, the dark match for the live audience saw the team Of John Cena and Shinsuke Nakamura vs Rusev and Baron Corbin. While Nakamura vs Corbin has not yet been officially announced for Battleground, with the recent interactions between the two men this match seems to be inevitable. Both are currently being groomed to be top stars on the Smackdown roster and this match will be of extreme importance to both.

New WWE Network Collections

The WWE Network has added some exciting new choices in its “collections” section. Hall of Famer Razor Ramon has his own collections that are worth checking out. Another new addition is one that is going to get an insane amount of watch time because it is Piper’s Pit. Over 30 years arguable the number one talker in wrestling history is now available on the WWE Network.

Okada Backstage at RAW

After the New Japan G1 in California, IWGP Champion Kazuchika Okada headed to Pheonix to visit Finn Balor at WWE RAW. Of course this drew speculation that Okada was in talks to join the WWE, but as mentioned he was simply visiting Balor. This has not been the first time Okada had appeared backstage at WWE as he was also at SummerSlam as a guest of Shinsuke Nakamura.

Kofi’s Massive Screw Up on Live Television

During the Smackdown Rap Battle between The New Day and The Usos, Kofi Kingston seriously botched a line concerning geometry. Kofi referred to a stop sign as a hexagon when the shape is actually an octagon. Kingston posted a video on Instagram mocking himself for the mistake, even editing in a photo of a New Day action figure set that included a stop sign.

Another Tag Team Splitting Up?

During the Battle Royal on Smackdown, Mojo Rawley eliminated his tag team partner Zack Ryder. Many feel this will lead to the team splitting but it seems very difficult which would be doing the heel turn. Mojo is the aggressor, but his actions were appropriate given the “every man for himself” nature of a Battle Royal. For what it’s worth, The Hype Bros were never intended to be a long-running tag team. It has certainly been an effective tactic in integrating Mojo to the main roster.
