WWE Fastlane 2018 – AJ Styles v Dolph Ziggler v Sami Zayn v Kevin Owens v Baron Corbin v John Cena – WWE Championship Match – Predictions & Thoughts

by Jack Robinson, posted in Predictions

Thoughts

Many people will say that this is going to be the match of the weekend, I would agree, if they get enough time to perform.

There are a lot of very talented superstars in this match and also the chance to start some feuds on the run up to Wrestlemania.

Zayn v Owens seems a certainty for a Wrestlemania feud at this point and that would be a great match.

Styles should retain, or else the whole WWE Universe is going to be disappointed if anybody else does, as that is the match that everybody wants to see.

Predictions

As much as I would love for either Zayn or Owens to win, it has to be Styles to set up the dream match against Nakamura at Wrestlemania.

This could be a great match, with several talented superstars involved in it.

Question – Who do you think will win?

WWE RAW Analysis – 05.03.18 – First ever symphony of destruction match, Ronda Rousey’s Wrestlemania match made & Bayley turns heel?!

by Jack Robinson, posted in RAW

The analysis will be similar to what last week’s was today. Will most likely remain that way too.

Kurt Angle opened the show and he wanted to fight Triple H. Then Stephanie McMahon came out and reminded Angle of his responsibilities. Then Ronda Rousey came out to a huge pop from the WWEV Universe. Followed by Triple H. The four had an argument, during which Rousey said she would like to fight McMahon at Mania, to which McMahon said she is not a member of the active roster. Then Angle reminded both Triple H and McMahon that they are both on the roster and made the Wrestlemania match of Angle and Rousey v Triple H and McMahon. Triple H attempted to punch Angle and failed and it resulted in him being locked into the ankle lock. Rousey samoan dropped McMahon.

Asuka v Nia Jax followed, which resulted in Jax tapping out to an armbar. Later on in the night Alexa Bliss attempted to try and make Jax feel better, but if anything it made her feel worse and cry.

The Revival then lost to the Bar, which means they won’t get a shot at the tag-team titles at Wrestlemania.

John Cena then came out and talked about how he will be the WWE Champion next Sunday, and he wants to face Shinsuke Nakamura and AJ Styles at Wrestlemania. He was then interrupted by Goldust. There was then a match between the two, which Cena won with ease.

Bayley then battled Mandy Rose, with Absolution at ringside. Bayley won the match, but was attacked by the group immediately after it was over. Sasha Banks came out and saved Bayley and then wanted a hug. Bayley pushed her away and walked off.

Bray Wyatt then beat Rhyno again, in a quick match. After the match he called out Matt Hardy. Hardy came on the screen and says there is only one place for them to fight, the Hardy Compound, to which the majority of the crowd erupted. No idea yet as to when we will see that match happen.

Braun Strowman then faced Elias in a symphony of destruction match. Strowman crushed Elias, meaning that he had to leave on a stretcher after Strowman dropped a piano over him and hit him on the back with a cello.

The Miz was then in the ring to host the Mizzies, but was interrupted by firstly Seth Rollins. And then Finn Balor. It resulted in a three on two handicap match with the Miztourage taking on Balor and Rollins. Balor and Rollins had some disagreements during the match, but ended up winning it. Angle then comes out and announces Miz will face Rollins and Balor at Wrestlemania.

Paul Heyman comes out to end the show, but is interrupted by Roman Reigns. Heyman announces that Brock Lesnar will be at RAW next week. Reigns says Lesnar better come ready for a fight.

WWE RAW Analysis – 26.02.18 – Ronda Rousey’s official debut, The Miz has two matches & Bayley and Sasha fail to team together again

by Jack Robinson, posted in RAW

Just a disclaimer, I was not able to stay up last night to watch RAW, so this is just a brief overview of what happened going off the order that the clips are in on the WWE YouTube page.

RAW started with Alexa Bliss coming out, she talked about herself and then Asuka came out when her name was mentioned.

Nia Jax then came out, attacked Bliss and Mickie James, before the numbers games caught up with her.

Bayley and Sasha Banks then came out, yet those two were also laid out by Jax, Bliss and James.

This led to a match, notably when Banks wanted to tag Bayley, she jumped off the apron yet she helped Asuka when she was in trouble.

Asuka, Bayley and Banks got the win in that match.

John Cena then came out and addressed why he had been a failure.

He teased an Undertaker match at Wrestlemania, but then said it won’t happen and he will be on Smackdown Live tomorrow night, in order to get a Wrestlemania match.

Bray Wyatt then faced Heath Slater and Rhyno and won.

He later blamed Matt Hardy for him beating up two innocent men.

(Going off course a bit here, but the storyline doesn’t make sense if I don’t)

The Miz says that he is undervalued at WWE and he should be in the main event of Wrestlemania.

Seth Rollins interrupts him and a match is set up, Kurt Angle saying it’s a likely Wrestlemania opponent.

Rollins beats Miz and then Finn Balor is sent out.

The Miztourage attack Balor pre-match, but Gallows and Anderson come out to help him out.

All four are then banned from ringside, and Balor beats Miz.

Roman Reigns then comes out and says Brock Lesnar is not there tonight and slates Lesnar for not caring about anything to do with the WWE.

Reigns got a good response from it and to be fair it was a great promo.

Yet again shows Lesnar is not really bothered about WWE.

Sheamus and Cesaro then faced Apollo Crews and Titus O’Neil in a two our of three falls match.

Sheamus and Cesaro won the match 2-0, getting the first pin with a brogue kick instantly on the bell.

Elias then dedicates a song for Braun Strowman, only to be distracted by him eventually.

Elias attacked Strowman with a fire extinguisher and was disqualified.

Strowman then threatened to throw Elias through the announcers table, only for Elias to run off.

Finally, Ronda Rousey and Kurt Angle had to explain themselves to Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.

Angle says he was lying last night when he said Triple H and Steph were going to take advantage of Rousey, as she had embarrassed them a couple of Wrestlemanias ago.

At the end of the heated exchange, Triple H punched Angle as he left the ring.

2018 WWE Elimination Chamber – Male’s Elimination Chamber Match – Winner faces Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania – Predictions & Thoughts

by Jack Robinson, posted in Predictions

The male Elimination Chamber match will feature seven superstars for the first time ever.

Many people are reporting that Roman Reigns will win this match and then face Universal Champion, Brock Lesnar, at Wrestlemania.

Last week on RAW the seven superstars in the match competed in a Gauntlet match on RAW, that was the longest ever match on RAW lasting roughly on hours and 50 minutes, with Braun Strowman eventually winning the match.

With Strowman winning that match, it seems like he won’t win this one, as him winning that shows that he can beat the other seven wrestlers.

Seth Rollins lasted over an hour in that match, so he may not feature for as long in this match.

Who Wins?

As much as I want it to be Strowman, I don’t think that it will be.

I also will not be picking Reigns, as I do not want to be predictable.

So to avoid being boring, Seth Rollins will be my pick for this match, as I think after last week on RAW he gained the respect of many people across the globe.

I think Rollins would be a great choice to win the title at Wrestlemania, as he hasn’t been pushed that well in a while now.

Question – Who do you want to win this match?

Finn Balor, The Miz, John Cena, Braun Strowman, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins & Elias to compete in a Gauntlet Match on RAW ahead of the Elimination Chamber Match

by Jack Robinson, posted in News, RAW

WWE have announced that all seven competitors in the Elimination Chamber Match will compete in a Gauntlet Match, this Monday night on RAW.

It remains to be seen what the point of doing this match is, just seven days before all seven collide again inside the steel structure.

Perhaps they are trying to make one of their stars popular who won’t win the Chamber match, as it is widely reported that Roman Reigns is going to win that match, so pehaps Braun Strowman will win this one.

There is also the possibility of starting some feuds up here before the match itself on Sunday night.

Question – Who do you think wins this match?

Royal Rumble 2018 – The Main Event – Predictions

by josh99howard, posted in Predictions

This Sunday is the stage for the Royal Rumble match and one that again and as per usual has Wrestlemania implications

In preparation for the Rumble match, myself and Jack have predictions on who will win, with the two of us going in different directions this time.

who wins?

Jack’s pick for the Rumble is Shinsuke Nakamura. A good pick I’d say, however, I hate saying this but I think it’s the way they’re going, and I have reasons; my pick is the one and only Big Dog, Roman Reigns

thoughts

Just going through the people who have bee confirmed for the rumble at the time of writing.

Xavier Woods probably won’t do much, might stay in for a little while but no more than 10 minutes I’d say, definitely won’t be winning it.

Kofi Kingston again I cant see winning it, he’ll be in for a while and again some amazing way of staying in the match will happen which will make for some good entertainment though I’m sure.

Big – E Is the most likely member of The New Day to be in the match for a while but again, due to the team they are in, I can’t see any of them winning.

Tye Dillinger enters at 10? Yeah, I can see them doing that gag again, not on much of a roll at the moment, might have a good showing of himself, but I’m not holding much hope.

Apollo Crews and Titus O’Neil have been on a bit of a roll on Raw so I can see them getting a couple of eliminations but then an attempt from one to eliminate the other will ruin the momentum and they’ll go out around the same time.

Rusev and Aiden English. I can see the entry being a good one but I don’t think English will last very long, Rusev, however, could and could be one of the final few if WWE uses him right.

Bray Wyatt. I’d love to see him win this match, he’s such a good wrestler and his gimmick suits him oh so well, but the feud with Woken Matt Hardy will probably cause him to go out.

Matt I think will do quite well when he is in, and the fans will get behind him but like what I said with Bray, that feud will cause the end of this match for the both of them in my opinion.

Baron Corbin. If this was a few months ago I’d have said he could go far in this match, but as of late WWE seem to not be behind he anywhere near as much as they previously were. He’ll get a few eliminations, but I can’t see WWE giving him one of the final spots.

Elias’s guitar is for sure getting involved when he comes in, and I think he’s been really good on Raw in recent weeks and so deserves a good showing in this match.

The Miz, can’t see much happening in this one for The Miz, he’s got the IC belt back and I can’t see WWE giving him the win when he has that belt already.

Having won the match last year Randy Orton probably won’t win it again this year but I can see him being there around the end of the match in the final few.

Finn Balor needs a good showing here, it’ll be his first rumble if I’m not mistaken having missed last year’s due to injury, and having recently turned heel he needs to show that this was good for him, he needs to be one of the last.

Big Match John is another one I cant see winning but I can see doing well because it’s John Cena. He needs a good account of himself, especially seen as he’s still going for that record-setting title reign, but I can’t see this happening yet.

Shinsuke should probably win this, he’s the kind of guy that could win and needs it at the moment as he’s been a little lacking since his promotion to the main roster. if AJ retains as well this sets us up for that dream match between AJ and Shinsuke for the WWE title at WrestleMania, all the signals point to a Shinsuke win…

However…

Roman. He’s not won it for a couple of years now, and we all know how WWE feels about their golden boy so I can see him winning just for that reason alone. But, for years the WWE has wanted Brock vs Roman at mania with Roman coming out on top, and they have just taken the Intercontinental Title off him, leaving his PPV schedule a lot more open, and, Brock’s contract is up soon so this could be their last chance for this match. The Big Dog could most definitely stake a claim to his yard yet again this Sunday night.

Question – What do you think will happen in this match? Who will come out on top?

My Thoughts

A good Royal Rumble match.

The pop when the Godfather came out was great as I am pretty sure that nobody suspected it.

From what I remember, Ryback was doing very well at this moment in time, so a win for him, rather than Cena would have probably made more sense.

Jericho and Ziggler lasting so long in the match was good to see as well.

Del Rio eliminates Marella, and now he has won!

Thoughts

A pretty good Royal Rumble in all honesty. You can tell the eliminations were pretty quick as they tried to fit in all 40 competitors.

I like the part where Nexus dominated the most, as that showed they were a force to be reckoned with, but when it took one man to eliminate almost all of them it was pretty stupid booking.

Miz eliminating Cena could also set up future storylines.

Marella at the end was pretty funny, the whole crowd wanted him to win, but I liked that added comedy at the end.

John Cena to enter 2018 Royal Rumble

by Jack Robinson, posted in News

John Cena has became the latest name to enter the 2018 Royal Rumble.

Cena is currently a ‘free agent’ so WWE like to say, and he joins the likes of Shinsuke Nakamura, Randy Orton and Elias who have already announced that they will enter the match.

Cena announced the news himself earlier this morning that he was going to enter the match.

With Cena on the verge of creating history, and the 16 time World Champion would break the record if he holds either the prestigious WWE Championship, or the Universal Title one more time in his career.

Cena has won the Royal Rumble twice in the past in 2008 and 2013 so he has history of winning the match before.

If Cena wins it remains to be seen whether the 16 time champ will challenge the current WWE Champion AJ Styles, or the Universal Champion Brock Lesnar. As he is after all a ‘free agent.’

Cena has been appear at Smackdown Live house shows over the past week, so is this a hint that he is heading back to the show that he was drafted too in 2016?
