This is it. Wrestlemania week is here and I am indeed exciting to attend my very first Wrestlemania. It has been a long time coming but I will finally experience this amazing spectacle that I have watched on television for about 28 years of my life. Whether you are a wrestling fan or not, it is definitely something to watch especially now that the women will main event, it is something you should not miss. With that being said, I have received a lot of request asking what are my predictions for this year’s Wrestlemania card and since both Raw and Smackdown have aired, I wanted to share my final predictions before Sunday. Let’s analyze:
Main Event Raw Women’s Championship: Becky Lynch vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Ronda Rousey -Winner: Becky Lynch. This one is self-explanatory. This will not change at all however, now it is a winner takes all, WWE is giving one hell of a WrestleMania moment to Becky. This is historic and I cannot wait to see Becky hold both belts.-
WWE Championship: Kofi Kingston vs. Daniel Bryan – Winner: Kofi Kingston. This one is a tough one to predict as Vince is a wild card as you all know and he can change his mind quickly. I previously had said Daniel Bryan will win however, there is way too much hype and build behind this story line to have Kofi lose. It would not make sense to put so much behind all this just to have a very disappointing end to such a story. Plain and simple Kofi needs and must win if not we will see a riot at Metlife Stadium.
Universal Championship: Seth Rollins vs. Lesnar- Winner: Seth Rollins. There is alot of pressure on Vince to give the WWE Universe something different here. I feel that Seth should win this and if he does not, it will be a major blow to his character. I think WWE realizes this and finally has decided that Lesnar’s run as WWE Universal Champion is getting to be old news with the WWE Universe. I believe this one is set for the reign of Seth Rollins to begin.
No Holds Barred: Triple H vs. Batista – Winner: Triple H. Not much to say in regards to this one. It is really self-explanatory, not changing my mind on this one.
Falls Count Anywhere: The Miz vs. Shane McMahon. Winner- The Miz. This one is also self explanatory. Now that the Miz is a babyface, and considering the hype the last two weeks, I do not see the Miz losing this one.
AJ Style vs. Randy Orton- Winner: Randy Orton. As much as I love AJ, I feel like Styles will lose this one. It is possible may be see a bigger AJ heel that you can ever imagine. This one will probably be one of the top matches in the whole card so I am looking forward to seeing it.
United States Championship: Rey Mysterio vs. Somoa Joe- Winner: Samoa Joe. I love Rey Mysterio. This will be an exciting match but the title will stay with Samoa Joe.
Womens Tag Team Championship- Sasha Banks and Bayley vs. Beth Phoenix and Natalya vs. Nia Jax and Tamina Snuka vs. The Llconics. Winner- Sasha and Bayley retain. I had originally had for Nia and Tamina to win but it truly does not make sense for WWE not to give Sasha and Bayley their WrestleMania moment. I believe they deserve to win here and will retain.
Kurt Angle vs. Baron Corbin – Winner: Kurt Angle. I cannot see him losing at the grandest stage of them all for his very last match of his career.
WWE Cruiserweight Championship: Tony Nese vs. Buddy Murphy. Winner: Buddy Murphy. I think WWE will have other plans for Nese. After much consideration, I do not think he is ready to be Cruiserweight Champion.
Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal – Winner: Braun Strowman because it is BRAUN STROWMAN. He does not need much of a push but I feel he deserves to win this one after horrible bookings.
Roman Reigns vs. Drew McIntyre – Winner: Drew McIntyre. Roman does not have anything to really gain from winning this match, however, I believe Drew does and will win this one. This match will not only be a hell of a match but might be a shocker as well.
Intercontinental Championship: Finn Balor vs. Bobby Lashley – Winner: Finn Balor . It does not make sense for WWE creative team to have Balor hold the title less than a month to lose it to Lashley and then to lose again at Wrestlemania. I suspect Lio Rush might be involved in this match. Now that Balor has confirmed that he will be the Demon King at Wrestlemania, which I wish it would have been kept a surprised until the event this Sunday. It will be epic to see the Demon King and his entrance.
These are my final predictions. I am exciting to see WrestleMania. I will posting pictures and videos of my experience. Stay Tuned.
Until then fans, farewell.
