My Predictions
Night 1
The Bloodline vs Cody Rhodes & Seth “Freakin” Rollins
For the sake of story telling, the Bloodline needs to win this match it’ll put a lot more on the underdog side of things for Cody and could drive home the doom and gloom fact of taking on the Bloodline always ends up in a Roman win because just too much to take on.
Prediction: The Bloodline
Rhea Ripley © vs. Becky Lynch
This one has been in focus for some time and right now as things stand I see no reason why they would take the title off Rhea, she has looked great in her matches, she has been great on the mic and her gimmick is about as over as it can be, which is weird when you consider how much heat Dom draws.
Becky is great, but she has done it all, if they opt to put the title on her its not exactly a downgrade but she does not need it and with Rhea as over as she is I think she retains and new contenders pop up (so maybe a draft to switch things up a little)
Prediction: Rhea retains
Gunther © vs Sami Zayn
I still expect this to be turned into a triple threat match and I do see Gunther dropping the title but only because WWE has finally started using the IC and US title as a build title towards the world titles (which is how it used to be! You held the lesser but more active title to see how you handled it and how the crows took to you, in recent years (about 2 decades) the IC and US title had just become belts to stick on people))
Rants about titles and status within things, I think its time for Gunther to look upwards towards a world title and to do that he needs to drop the IC title (does not need to but, its somewhat the norm) I still see Chad being added to the match and possibly coming out on top of said match but as things stand.. at the time of writing, he is not in the match so my prediction is based on that
Prediction: New Champion Sami Zayn
Jey Uso vs. Jimmy Uso
This one I fully expect to be a banger, but I 100% expect Jimmy to get the win, he’s put in the heal work and the Bloodline needs to look strong leading into the other matches (imo) and I expect some cheat codes will be applied near the end of this match to possibly ruin it but I don’t think Jay needs it as much as Jimmy does .. (Yeet… No.. Yeet)
Prediction: Jimmy Uso
Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship Six-Pack Tag Team Ladder Match
I feel like this one setup to do something that should have been done ages ago, a de-unification of the tag team titles, given they have not created a singular title to represent both brands and continue to carry around both of those ugly ass belts we will see either a, new title belts which pushes them both together OR the titles will be captured by 2 seperate teams resulting in the belts being split up.
Current rumours suggest that this match may still see another team added/swapped out (pretty deadly in for Austin and Grayon). In terms of a winner, I think it would be nice if Truth got a win on the big stage, he’s put in work for years and it’d nice to see him get a Mania win but I’d also be keen to see DIY shine bright if only for a short time before Johnny turns of Champa (uno reverso)
Prediction: DIY but I reserve the right to add Truth to the mix in a split win.
Bianca Belair, Naomi & Jade Cargill vs. Damage CTRL (Dakota Kai, Asuka & Kairi Sane)
Jade isn’t taking the loss on her debut, Bianca has lost a bit of steam of late and Naomi was on a losing streak which means Asuka continues to lose at Wrestlemania - although we could see the birth of a heal run for Bianca where she turns on Naomi, lays her out and costs her team the win… I do not see the writing going that deep but not impossible.
Prediction: Bianca Belair, Naomi & Jade Cargill
Rey Mysterio & Dragon Lee vs. Santos Escobar & Dominik Mysterio
This match sadly, smells like filler random build up out of the blue but as noted above despite my lack of interest in this match (but it could be a good match) I think this is where we see a turn from Carlito because why would he choose Dragon Lee over Carlito?
Prediction: Santos Escobar & Dominik Mysterio
Night 2
Seth “Freakin” Rollins © vs. Drew McIntyre
I think this is where we see Drew get his moment in front of a massive Wrestlemania crowd, Seth has been a great champion thus far and is as over as over can be and I do think the bloodline may get involved a little here but whatever happens I think we see Drew walking away with the title only on the basis of you cannot have a happy ending for every story and it will setup a bit of concern for Cody going into his match which I assume will take place after this one.
Prediction: New Champion: Drew McIntyre
Roman Reigns © vs. Cody Rhodes
The story has been told and every good story needs at least one decent ending before someone opts to bring it back and destroy that ending, in other words Cody finishes the story but I fully expect a TON of shenanigans in this match and at least four others getting involved, possibly even Seth himself.
I also expect at the end of the match just before Cody gets his moment to show off the title, the Rock shakes his hand, Roman gets pissed, decks Cody, slaps the Rock then we get to see the Rock turn and woop Roman setting up a clash for Summerslam between the two and giving the Rock a face turn.
Prediction: New Champion Cody Rhodes
Iyo Sky © vs Bayley
I’m not convinced that Dakota Kai has turned on Bayley even in the slightest, I feel like she will be the key for Bayley winning the match. Asuka is likely injured of feigning injury which will reduce the numbers of damage control that can get involved but this one seems like an obvious Bayley win, I think Iyo is fantastic and I an surprised they kept the title on her for as long as they have but she has done well with what’s been given to her as to a degree she isn’t possibly the strongest in her own group
Prediction: New Champion Bayley
Logan Paul © vs. Randy Orton vs. Kevin Owens
This is really hard one, do you take the title off Logan? If no then the story is Randy and Kevin cost each other the match and they build towards each other at Summerslam in a friendly rivalry that gets nastier over time, if you put the title on Kevin .. is this where we turn him heal again, its rare KO has a title as face
Do you put the title on Randy? He has held the title once for just under a month and lost it to .. Jinder Mahal weird right?
I see Kevin winning the title and doing the whole heal thing, but he has held the title 3 times for just under a 100 day total reign… predictions wise this one is the worse to figure out but I feel like Logan retains because its the least obvious option
Prediction: Logan Paul
LA Knight vs AJ Styles
This is a hard one to predict and honestly don’t know which one of them needs it, I feel like LA Knight needs it more in terms of winning on the big stage which AJ has already done having been involved in I think 7 Wrestlemania matches now… LA Knight is on the up, is he a title contender… unsure but I think he takes one or we see a woeful no contest
Prediction: LA Knight
Bobby Lashley & The Street Profits vs. Final Testament (Six-Man Tag Team Philadelphia Street Fight)
This seems like a match setup to break a charecter later down the line, Bobby has not re-captured the Almighty magic he had and the final testament if they are to kept around as a team need to make us notice them because so far … not captured the imagination at all.
Prediction: Final Testament
