Dolph Ziggler vs. Baron Corbin
Predictions & Winner: Corbin’s reign of terror has been interesting to watch since he made a surprise debut at ‘Mania 32. The tall, tattooed brute captured the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal trophy and he’s been on a tear ever since. Ziggler got a sample of his brute force the next night on RAW, but that match ended in DQ. Their issue will finally come to a conclusion during this PPV rematch. Ziggler’s gonna bump around like a pinball (as usual) and Corbin’s gonna showcase his amazing strength once again. One End of Days later and Corbin’s winning ways shall continue.
Dean Ambrose vs. Chris Jericho
Predictions & Winner: Now this is one marquee match we’re really looking forward to. Jericho has been feeling himself way more than he usually does lately since he beat AJ Styles at ‘Mania 32. Y2J is back to his ‘ol super-ego self and has been nabbing more wins as a result. While Ambrose wasn’t able to finish Heyman’s monster at ‘Mania 32, he’s gotten right back to being the entertaining nutcase we’re all used to seeing. Him and Jericho’s back-and-forth banter has been one of the highlights of the past few RAW’s and SmackDown’s. This bout’s gonna be fun to witness since it could go either way. But we’re leaning more towards Ambrose finally getting a worthy win over the legendary Jericho. Ambrose could really use a win right now and we think WWE will actually bless him with one on at Payback 2016. This match is going to help rebuild Ambrose’s credibility and push him towards winning the Money in the Bank briefcase this year. Bank on it.
The Miz (c) (with Maryse) vs. Cesaro (WWE Intercontinental Championship)
Predictions & Winner: The Miz is such a douchebag. But he’s such a lovable douchebag. While we were heartbroken to see Ryder drop his IC Title so soon to Miz one day after winning it, we still have to commend Mr. Mizanin. His heelish ways have become magnified now that his real-life wife has returned to accompany him. But another return has us equally entertained these days – Cesaro is back and the “Cesaro Section” is quite pleased. Both men are equally hot right now, so this once could go either way as well. This one’s gonna end on a DQ, though. Maryse is the one who’s going to cause that DQ somehow, someway. This feud will continue at Extreme Rules 2016 in some form that will involve another lady. Cesaro’s gonna have to employ a ringside equalizer next time.
Mr. McMahon will announce who controls Raw at WWE Payback
Prediction: So even though Shane took the loss at ‘Mania 32 during his HIAC match with The Undertaker, he still got the chance to run RAW. Which doesn’t make much sense considering the stipulations of his ‘Mania match. But we don’t care too much about the specifics since Shane’s run as the ruler of RAW has given us some great episodes. At Payback, Vince will determine who will permanently control WWE’s flagship show – Shane or Stephanie. Our Vince Russo meter is kicking in so hard right now. Vince will tease us before he finally decides who will take control of RAW. After some back and forth promos between all three McMahon’s, Vinnie Mac will appoint himself as the man who will run RAW from now on.
Roman Reigns (c) vs. AJ Styles (WWE World Heavyweight Championship)
Predictions & Winner: We didn’t think we’d see these men go head to head so soon. We got a sample of what these guys can do in a one-on-one situation back at the 2016 Royal Rumble. AJ’s already managed to become the #1 contender to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and he practically just got here. Reigns is finally back at the top of the mountain and The Authority is no longer a thorn in his side. But here’s the kicker – AJ’s former running mates, Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows, are now a part of the WWE. They’ve aided AJ several times, but AJ’s made it clear that he doesn’t need their assistance. We think those two men aren’t gonna take too kindly to AJ’s concerns. Anderson and Gallows are gonna turn on AJ and cause him to take the loss during this main event. Reigns will continue to reign as champ (no pun intended), while AJ will duke it out with his former Bullet Club buddies soon after. Don’t be shocked to see AJ actually call on Reigns to help him face Anderson and Gallows at Extreme Rules 2016.
