There is a lot of talk around at the moment that wrestling, especially in the WWE, has become boring and predictable. So I thought it would b a fun experiment to see if I could predict the outcome of WWE pay-per-views.
And, it just so happens, WWE has one on this weekend: Backlash.
John Cena vs Triple H vs Edge in a Triple Threat match for the WWE Championship
To be honest, I thought Cena would lose it Wrestlemania, and I was wrong, but I just don't see him retaining it here. That leaves Triple H and Edge. Although I would like Edge to win it, just for a change of pace, I think it will be Triple H that walks away with a victory.
Shelton Benjamin vs Rob Van Dam for both the Intercontinental Championship and the Money in the Bank contract
Interesting match this one. My initial thought was that it could go either way, but with an ECW pay-per-view coming up, and RVD already saying that his title match would be 'extreme' (thus, building up for the ECW show), I think Rob Van Dam will win.
Mickie James vs Trish Stratus for the Women's Championship
I think the WWE is having fun with the storyline surrounding these two, and I think Mickie James will win.
Vince McMahon & Shane McMahon vs Shawn Michaels & 'God'
Well. This is one is weird, but interesting. Will 'God' show up? The easy answer is 'of course he won't', but we are talking about the WWE here. Still, I think 'God' will not show up, just so Vince McMahon can brag the next night onRaw that he beat 'God. Vince and Shane to win.
Kane vs Big Show
Not a match I really care about. With Kane's movie coming out, they will give Kane the win.
Carlito vs Chris Masters
Carlito is becoming more and more popular each week, and will outsmart Masters to win.
Umaga vs Ric Flair
Another throw away match, really. I expect Umaga to win, though I think it will be because of inteference or something so that it keeps Flair looking strong.
