Predictions: Breezango, Becky, Rusev, and Miz win the matches that I don't really care about.

I think the Wyatt's win because I think Bray's going to be one of the top guys on Smackdown and I don't think a loss does anything to New Day.

I think Owens wins. These two continuing to be on the same show has taken a lot of steam out of this match for me. But I think when Sami finally definitely beats him, its going to be a bigger match.

The Club wins. The obvious finish is Finn interferes and costs Cena and Enzo and Cass the match. It's the obvious and logical finish. You get to continue AJ and Cena on Smackdown, Finn's immediately put into a high profile spot and Enzo and Cass have to recruit someone to help them. Plus, you can do a slow build to Balor-Cena or Balor-Styles for Wrestlemania.

Sasha and Bayley win. It has to be Bayley. Other than someone like Trish or AJ, pretty much anyone else would get eaten alive if its not Bayley.

Ambrose wins. Both shows are going to have a championship but the show that has the loser(s) of this match, that title's going to have an asterisk next to it. And that would be just another way to make Smackdown seem like the lesser of the two shows.

Breezango gets the pre-show win. Word is Vince really likes them and they may even be getting a slight makeover soon so that they're taken more seriously.

Becky goes over Natalya, because everyone goes over Natalya and Becky was the #1 female for Smackdown.

Rusev squashes Ryder

New Day goes over the Wyatt's because everyone goes over the Wyatt's, and the Wyatt's are being split up.

KO beat Sami because Vince apparently doesn't give a crap about Sami since basically like a week after Mania.

Enzo, Cass & Cena beat The Club because reasons.

Miz beats DY, but I wouldn't be entirely surprised to see DY get put over here. I think it would be a mistake but it seems like a "Curtis Axel winning the IC strap" thing for Vince to do, where there's no real build to it and they think that just putting the strap on the guy is going to get him over.

Sasha & Bayley beat Charlotte and Dana, and Dana eats the pin.

Literally no idea what they're going to do with the main event, but I'm pretty certain it's going to be a screwy finish to get us a 2nd main title tomorrow night.

Some late predictions

The 6 man tags should be entertaining, Ill guess New Day and The Club get the wins

IC title changes hands

Shenanigans the main event

If that match is any indication, Reigns is in for a rough night

Bayley begins her ascent to the top of the merch sales chart.

Anyone else notice recently that it looks like Dana Brooke is gaining weight/losing muscle definition?

Yeah, he's coming closer and closer to breaking his damn neck each time. Seems like the landing gets worse every time.

That Reigns suckfest they were just doing pointed out to me that Reigns is trying to steal The Revival's current gimmick/hashtag #TopGuys

That **** was hilarious. Rusev completely no-sold the fact that Mojo was a thing. Kudos to Mojo for bringing the intensity though. He didn't do anything to screw up his first impression, IMO.

He got a decent Mojo chant. I had a feeling this was probably happening and I thought that crowd might boo him out of the building

Same here. I thought he was going to come out at the end of the match when Rusev first locked in his finisher because the crowd popped for something and started looking at the ramp. Wonder if maybe the production team might have hit a cue early or something, and we just didn't see it on the broadcast.
