ALL IN Predictions

Well, we've finally made it to the big weekend. They're calling it the biggest event since the first WrestleMania in terms of its importance to the business. Whether you believe it or not, there's no denying that this is an incredible feat in independent wrestling. It also could be seen in a few months as the beginning of the end of this independent wrestling movement if Vince McMahon and WWE ends up signing The Elite to "Elite" contracts in his company.

But I don't want to rain on anyone's parade. Instead, let's focus on the moment. This is going to be an incredible show. Here are my quick predictions for the show:

1) NWA World Heavyweight Championship
Nick Aldis (c) vs. Cody
It's Cody's show. The son of the son of a plummer from Austin, Texas is going to go to the pay window, if you will!
My Prediction: Cody.

2) Kazuchika Okada vs. Marty Scurll
I really like Marty Scurll. And I know that Okada does jobs now. But... I don't see it for this match. Scurll is in a position to win even by losing with even having this match.
My Prediction: Kazuchika Okada

3) Joey Janela vs. Hangman Page- Chicago Street Fight
I am not someone that knows too much about Janela. It wouldn't be too surprising to see Joey Ryan swing into the match and cost Page the match as part of the whole murder mystery on Being The Elite. But I'm still picking a future top act in wrestling to win this.
My Prediction: Hangman Page

4) Rey Mysterio, Fenix, and Bandido vs. The Young Bucks and Kota Ibushi
Again, it's The Bucks show. But this is going to be an awesome insane display of athleticism.
My Prediction: Bucks and Ibushi

5) Christopher Daniels vs. Stephen Amell
Stephen Amell does not do jobs, even to former world champions. He will not fail this city.
My Prediction: Stephen Amell

6) Madison Rayne vs. Britt Baker vs. Chelsea Green vs. Tessa Blanchard
I'm going with the daughter of Tully.
My Prediction: Tessa Blanchard

7) Over Budget Battle Royal **
Hot Take: NEVILLE/PAC shows up and wins this battle royal.
My Prediction: PAC

8) ROH World Championship
Jay Lethal (c) vs. Winner of Over Budget Battle Royal
I don't see ROH doing a title switch UNLESS it is PAC/Neville to shock the world. So, I'm hedging my bets here.
My Prediction: Jay Lethal

9) Kenny Omega vs. Pentagon Jr.
It's Kenny Omega. He's the best wrestler in the world. I'm not too familiar with Pentagon's work, but I'm looking forward to what I understand will be another fun wrestler facing The Best Bout Machine.
My Prediction: Kenny Omega

10) The Briscoe Brothers vs. Scorpio Sky and Frankie Kazarian **
The Briscoes are not losing this match.
My Prediction: The Briscoes

**- Pre-Show Match

Overall Prediction: FUN. This show is simply going to be fun. The only thing that can make this truly great is if The Elite come out after Cody wins the NWA World Championship and sign new contracts with Ring of Honor/New Japan Pro Wrestling right on top of a laying WWE logo.

I'll be posting a review of the show after the final match has wrapped up. Until then, take care of yourselves, spread some awesomeness, and whatever you do, go ALL IN (just like I did with the comma button just now).

WWE Evolution Predictions + Thoughts on An Underpromoted All-Women PPV

Credit: WWE WWE Evolution Promotional Poster This should feel like a bigger deal. After all, this is the first time ever that an All-Women PPV is taking place under the WWE corporate umbrella. But WWE has done a great job of completely killing the show with an uninspired card, lack of promotion, lack of interest overall, and finding a million different other things to promote to undermine the event. Still, some fans (like myself) want to give the women their due and hope to enjoy this show. Here's a rundown of the card and my predictions for each match: 1) Raw Women's Championship: Ronda Rousey (c) vs. Nikki Bella If this goes longer than 5 minutes, it's definitely too long. As good as Nikki can be in the ring (at times), Rousey should just absolutely massacre her. The only ways to prolong this match in a realistic way would be 1) an injury angle or 2) Twin Magic with Brie interfering. Otherwise, this should be short and awesome. Prediction: Ronda Retains 2)...

WWE TLC 2018 Review- Tables and Ladders and Chairs, Oh My!  

        HERE WE GO!    Pre-Show   1) WWE Cruiserweight Championship   Buddy Murphy (champ) vs. Cedric Alexander   They started this match early. Apparently, they wanted just as many fans in the arena as there usually are in 205 Live matches for this to give it the authentic feel.   The bell rings. A lot of tie-ups and switches to start up the match to a good reaction from the crowd. A Loud 205 Chant. Alexander takes down Murphy to the floor. Really good back and forth action here with both men moving quickly. Alexander catches Murphy with a dropkick for a 2 count. BIG KNEE to the head of Alexander sends him to the floor. Murphy flies off the top rope and hits a Meteora (maybe that’s what they were going for?) for a 2 count. Murphy has the advantage for a few moments, including a power choke on the corner on Alexander. He jumps off it to eat a SUPERKICK to the chest. Crowd seems invested in the matc...

WWE Super Show-Down 2018 Review: Last Time Ever Delivers + Some Other Solid Matches

Another big show in the WWE this year will happen today as WWE comes from Melbourne, Australia in front of 70,000 people. A lot of big matches are happening here. Let's Do This! No Pre-Show today. It's straight to the show. The new WWE opening takes place, and we get a WWE video package putting over the show and the LAST TIME EVER match. It looks like the Raw Announce Team will be calling the show. We go to the arena, and they've already spent more money on fireworks than they have for WWE programming this year. 70,309 in attendance. For once, the entrance way is understated. 1) SmackDown Live Tag Team Championship The Bar vs. The New Day (c) I wonder if Vince/WWE Management is ordering people to run the aisle tonight. Both tag teams were doing that coming to the ring.  Nice back and forth action with Kingston and Cesaro, along with Woods after getting the tag. Woods and Kingston had an awesome sequence of moves to start off. The Bar a minute later catches bot...
