The Usos vs. The Revival: my pick is The
Usos, because if I've learned anything over recent times this company doesn't
like to give The Revival too much momentum even though they are heels at the
moment and they could have stuck the stipulation of a tag team championship
opportunity [a No1 Contenders] on top of this; for the Raw tag team
championships.
Moving on
slightly; may I just point out that this is a complete joke that this company
have their two best tag teams on a kickoff show on a pay-per-view I don't care
where it is in the world, individually or together these two teams have earned
and deserve to be anywhere else on this card besides on the kickoff show, how
about having The Lucha House Party vs. Lars Sullivan; this match on the kickoff
show [as you will see later I will have much to say about this match anyway,]
but I say this again this is a joke these two teams shouldn't be in this card
slot, I get the distinct feeling that someone from the hierarchy does not like
or appreciate tag team wrestling [on a very quick side note this match was the
last to be announced.]
50-Man Battle Royal: my pick is Braun
Stroman, even though this Battle Royal may mean nothing, he does needs
something to push his stock back up in this company and yes I am aware he won
the previous Battle Royal the last time they were in this part of the world [we
don't see that belt anymore, strange that it is like that belt meant nothing.]
The Lucha House Party vs. Lars Sullivan: my pick is Lars Sullivan, is this really worthwhile putting on this
card, it just seems a complete waste of time here, I would have preferred to
see someone like MoJo Rawley step up to the plate, the match result itself is
irrelevant but it would have told us so much about MoJo Rawley's character
developments as in he is a little bit unhinged to take on Sullivan one-on-one
and it would have also given his character some forward momentum [maybe the WWE
should take notes on how to build new characters here,] I mean it took me a
very short space of time to come up with this idea.
Braun Strowman vs. Bobby Lashley: my pick is Bobby Lashley, because I have been watching this company
for many years with keeping that in mind I can see them picking Lashley to win
here, because Stroman is another character/performer that this company don't
like giving any momentum to.
Roman Reigns vs. Shane McMahon: my pick is
Shane McMahon, I can see this going one of three ways if they want to continue
this feud thing they will have someone interfere to give Shane the assist or
have someone run interference for Reigns/to fight off the interference which
will set up a tag team match at the next pay-per-view, but if they want to end
this feud they will have Roman Reigns win here with a straight up win.
Andrade vs. The
Intercontinental Champion “The
Demon” Finn Bálor: my pick is “The Demon” Finn
Bálor, just because “The Demon” has come out to play but either result is good,
this is absolutely nothing against any version of Finn Bálor, but the hierarchy
of this company haven't exactly used this latest run to great effect or success
and on a quick side note it has just taken four matches before we reach one
that I can say "This should be of a very high quality indeed, that is
providing they have been given time to work with."
Dolph Ziggler vs. the WWE Champion Kofi Kingston: my pick is Kofi Kingston, simply put how can I put this nicely,
because I'm going to say something to this effect later on as well in the next
paragraph and I should give you a little bit of a heads up, I am highly
critical the more you read of this blog with legitimate reasons to be fair, if
this company have no intention of changing the Champion I would prefer to see
someone new given the opportunity to see what they can do in a main event
situation instead of telling us the
viewer the result of the match before watching it and saying something like
this; "This character/performer is just here to fill the gap or is a
placeholder."
Baron Corbin vs. the Universal Champion Seth Rollins: my pick is Seth Rollins, I just have to ask is this match really
happening? Wow what utter garbage this is; I mean there are three possible
outcomes and two of them would be TV ratings destroyers, Corbin wins [even
though I think this company are just telling us again "this
character/performer is here to fill the gap or once again is a placeholder
until we get back to our regular scheduled programming] or Lesnar will cash in
The Money In The Bank briefcase [which I see more likely considering I watched
Stephanie McMahon do a public address thing on WWE.com basically saying the
hierarchy are in short are far, far, far, far from happy with Lesnar's actions
and they are talking about it and not forgetting he is on the poster/online for
this pay-per-view as well.] So the final thing I have to say is this; "as
things stand well done WWE for backing yourself into a corner here so I hope
Rollins retains here, because if he doesn't you can kiss your TV ratings
goodbye and those AEW chants are going to get louder including any signs which
you may not want to see including BeachballMania as well, hell you may as well
start selling beachballs with the WWE logo on it at least that way you can make
money out of it."
Triple H vs. Randy Orton: my pick is Triple
H, "Why is this match even on this card?" I mean it isn't like we
haven't seen it time after time, after time, after time, after time many, many
times throughout the years.
I mean I
have just watched a segment from the red brand this week [the week of Monday
05/06/2019 in solving these two characters/performers and it was okay, maybe I
was being too harsh originally, but no I will stick with what I said earlier,
because this segment I mean I heard how this segment went down but I was
thinking I would check it out for myself and the first part is fine and then
the second part was talking about testicles.
Don't get me
wrong I laugh to begin with, but it went from something sensible, something
solid to something the complete opposite and let us not forget these two
characters/performers are circling around their 40's at this time, so I have no
problem with what I have said about this match so far and in the next
paragraphs, so I am quite happy to report that since I have stopped watching
their TV programming I am more relaxed, I just want to highlight if you still
get enjoyment from their TV program all the power to you, but for me I have
stopped making the effort and I feel better for it. I still watch bits and pieces
from this company but I pick and choose, I even tried watching Impact Wrestling
which I haven't done for years, but after a very short amount of time I
couldn't watch it.
Maybe it is
because I am interested more in wrestling and the characters over the
storylines and other things of this nature. I have a feeling that All Elite
Wrestling would suit me down to the ground, it is because of what I have seen
and heard they intend to put wrestling first.
So just a
rhetorical question here they would preferably like to put on this match over I
don't know maybe using the Raw Tag Team Championships, I mean these
championships have been so far buried that Jafar would have to send Aladdin
back down the booby-trapped cave just to find them, so here is just an idea
have Harlem Heat on a short-term
contract defeat Zack Ryder & Curt Hawkins for these championships and have
them drop the championships at the next pay-per-view, because at least my idea
is much, much, much, much better than these championships losing value and
collecting dust or sand at this point [I am not being arrogant but I would most
definitely prefer my idea to what we have here.]
The Undertaker vs. Goldberg: my pick is
The Undertaker, I'm going to put this very respectfully this is the wrong time
to have this match, meaning about 15 years ago it would have been fantastic [I
got this number by watching someone else's material, if you have been viewing
any of my blogs you know how funny I get about taking credit for someone else's
work, I don't like it,] but back to my point I am sure these two iconic
characters/performers are going to bring everything to the table, I am not
going to see this match because I don't have the network, but I hope this is a
relatively short match to try and protect them both as characters/performers,
if you are a wrestling fan you know what I am trying to say here very
politely/respectfully to keep their stage presence and personas as we remember
them.
But it would
have been nice to have this stipulation in place of whoever wins gets a
Universal Championship or a WWE Championship spot in one of these matches at
next year's WrestleMania, it is up to the individual to decide which option he
takes.
There are
just three matches on this card I would be interested/a enjoy to watch and that
would be it; The Usos vs. The Revival, Andrade vs. the Intercontinental
Champion “The Demon” Finn Bálor and The Undertaker vs. Goldberg for the rest of
it I wouldn't waste my free month subscription on it, I don't care if this is
just a glorified House Show event pay-per-view, a pay-per-view is a
pay-per-view this company need to try harder but having said that I think I'm
wasting my breath here.
Last updated: Saturday 08/06/2019, I don't think my pick was in the 50-Man Battle
Royal, because I was hearing someone else's live stream and I didn't hear his
name [Braun Strowman,] I am not fussed by this I am just simply pointing it out
and whilst I'm here I know The Lucha House Party vs. Lars Sullivan was a 3 on 1
Handicap Match, but when I was originally dictating this blog it didn't say it
on WWE.com so I left it and I have updated one line in this blog as well [it
doesn't affect my predictions, it just makes better sense now and I still got it
wrong.]
