SummerSlam



Hello watchers of Wrestling

                It is time for the biggest wrestling event of the summer, SummerSlam.
It looks to be a jam packed show tonight, and you know that I like to do predictions for the pay per view (the big 4 at the very least), and with tonight’s show being so large, I am going to jump right into it.  
Akira Tozawa (C) vs Neville for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship:
I love Titus World Wide; I am hoping that I can join the group soon (holla at your boi Titus). Since joining Titus World Wide Tozawa has become a more well-known wrestler. He has worked his way up the ranks in the cruiserweight division, and on RAW he defeated Neville, and won the Cruiseweight Championship. Neville is having his rematch tonight. Now I would have thought that Tozawa would win the title tonight but he won on RAW, I wish they would have waited for the win to come at SummerSlam, but that is what they decided. I think Tozawa should win. Neville does not need the belt back yet, now in a few months after a few more cruiserweights have come along to become true contenders, then we can have him win it back.
The New Day (c) vs the Usos for the Tag Team Championship: (Sorry, but I hate making a distinction between the SmackDown and RAW championships. What is the need for that? The Champs on RAW, are on RAW, and vice versa)
This is another title switch that took place before SummerSlam that would have made more sense to wait until now. The New Day won the titles at Battleground a month ago. Now the way this feud was going, they could have waiting until tonight to make the change. Like I was saying about the last match, it does not make sense to have a change tonight, which is sad because their last few matches have been great, maybe the best on the pay per views, but I am afraid that again taking the belts off of them too early is going to take away from what would have been a great moment that they would have had on the SummerSlam stage. With that said I will pick the New Day.
The Hardyz and Jason Jordan vs The Miztourage:
This show is so full that a match that has the Miz on it may be on the preshow and it may only get a few minutes. This is a shame because I think that Miz and Jordan could have done somethings, with the Miztourage helping Miz out and him narrowly escaping. This maybe something that they do later with those guys, but again they were rushing to get these guys on the show. But this prediction blog, so I will pick the Hardyz and Jordan for the win.
Big Show Vs Big Cass:
This will be a popcorn match for me. I have to say I think that if Big Cass was going to fight anyone at SummerSlam it should have been Enzo. I don’t have much to say about this match, since there hasn’t been much thought put into it. So I will pick Big Cass to do what he has been doing since he and Enzo split, and that is kick someone in the face, and win the match.
John Cena vs Baron Corbin:
No offense to Corbin who may be a wonderful human being, but I think he is absolutely boring, and I am so glad that he does not have the “Money in the Bank” briefcase anymore. I do not think at least right now, that he is championship material. Nothing about him says that he is ready to be champion, and I for one, am glad that we don’t have to worry about that now. You know I don’t like to be negative, but I had to be honest. In this match I am picking John Cena.
Randy Orton Vs Rusev:
For all of my old blog readers (both of you), you know that I used to be the biggest Randy Orton fan. I used to love the old viper, the can’t be trusted, kick you in the head Randy Orton. And I know the rest of you on the internet will say he never did, but the Orton who seems to care a lot more than he does now. This guy just does not seem to care. That being said, it would be nice for Rusev to get the victory, and put him back on track to being somebody, but I don’t see that happening. Orton for the win.
Finn Balor Vs Bray Wyatt:
Think about this…..a year ago almost to the day, Finn Balor was crown the 1st Universal Champion. And about 6 months ago Bray Wyatt won the WWE Championship. And now these 2 are in a much just because. I have no idea why they are fighting, and I don’t know what this does to bring either of them back into the main event scene. This does not make much sense, but I guess you had to do something with these 2. And they had a match on RAW where Balor lost and got covered in blood. I think we all can tell that tonight the “Demon King”, will show up. And since Bray won on RAW I pick Balor.
Naomi (C) VS Natalya for the Women’s Championship:
I think a lot of us see the writing on the wall when it comes to the Women’s Championship on SmackDown. We all think that it does not matter who wins this match because “Ms. Money in the Bank” Carmella will cash in and win the title, but since that is not a definite we will talk about this match. I think that Natty will win the match tonight. I think that she has a new attitude and she is going to take it out on Naomi tonight.
Cesaro and Sheamus (c) VsThe Shield for the Tag Team Championship:
The Shield, Dean Ambrose, and Seth Rollins reunited on this week’s RAW. I don’t know if I told you all this, but I have never been the biggest fan of the Shield. I did not think they were a great faction. They would always jump people. They did not have great matches until right before they broke up. That being said I am excited to not only see these two back together, but I would love to see another member join them, but we talk about that later. So with all due respect to Sheamus and Cesaro, I pick the Shield to win.
Alexa Bliss (C) Vs Sasha Banks for the Women’s Championship:
This match was determined this week because of an injury to Bayley. So in her place Sasha is getting the title shot. I think if Bayley did not get hurt, she would have still lost the match, so I think that the same thing will happen. I think these two will have a good match but I think that in the end Little Miss Bliss will retain the title.
AJ Styles (C) Vs Kevin Owens for the US Championship:
Another 2 guys that 10 months ago were the world champions on different shows, now they are both on SmackDown, that is good, but they are fighting for the US title, which kind of takes away from the WWE title, if you ask me. I think these are the top guys on SmackDown, so why would they have a match for anything other than the world championship. But again, I will make my prediction. I think this will be a great match, and I think that AJ Styles will win tonight.
Jinder Mahal (C) Vs Shinsuke Nakamura for the WWE Championship:
Let me be one of the few to say this, I love Jinder as the WWE Champion. I think he is the Indian version of JBL from 2004-2005. I think he creates so much hate from the crowd which makes you always want he to get beat. And let me be the 1st to say this, and I know you internet nerds will hate me after this, but hey I have to get my honest opinion without being mean, Nakamura is boring on the main roster. I don’t know what it is, but I don’t find him that great to watch on SmackDown, and him getting this title shot, may not help any. Now I think it is a mistake to take the title off of Jinder right now, especially for Nakamura, but I think that is the way it is going. So Shinsuke will win it.
Brock Lesnar (C) Vs Roman Reigns Vs, Samoa Joe, Vs Braun Strowman in a Fatal 4 Way for the WWE Universal Championship:
Now this is a SummerSlam main event. You have the 4 biggest figuratively and literally guys on RAW all fighting for the biggest title on RAW. I could see a scenario where all 4 men could win this match. I could see Strowman winning and continuing to dominate RAW for the next few months. I could see Joe winning, and choking everybody out, and if a certain someone gets back in shape, maybe they will have another set of matches like they had before. I could see Roman winning, and the Shield reuniting to run RAW but this time as baby faces and with championships and with purpose, unlike last time. And I could see Brock winning, and leaving WWE to fight Jon Bones Jones, in the UFC, and still have the Universal Championship. Now I could see all of that happening, but my prediction is………Roman Reigns will be our new Universal Champion!

Alright guys that is it for predictions. I am thinking about doing some new stuff with the blog, so if you could stay plugged in and let me know what you think about the new stuff. Enjoy SummerSlam everyone.
