Though Kendrick / Perkins and Zayn / Jericho should be fun.  "What did you say about me?" |

Anyone else kind of feel like Seth's winning the belt here? This is basically all they've got for the time being for a filler title feud until they're ready to give it back to Reigns, and I could see them trying the new champ ratings bump for this week, having it again with Owens winning the title back via Triple H at Hell in a Cell, and then later for a, "Triple H explains his actions!" segment. Not to say any of that would actually, like, work, but I could see them trying it.
I mean, I wouldn't be shocked if KO wins by any stretch, just kind of expecting Seth to only to lose it back quickly, both for all that and because it's the most logical way to further the, "If you ignore all the evil things she constantly does she's a saint!" Foley stupidity.

Foley stupidity. Rollins if my fav, I'm not sure how this is going though. His babyface turn is going a bit slowly, it's not quite ripe yet, Owens could really use some legitimacy in his first title reign for the future of WWE, overall it's a tough spot for either of them to lose. In other words, kooky finish, run-in by Sub-Zero from Mortal Kombat (played by Lance Storm) |

Wish I had money to spare for a shirt tonight but I didn't realize how much my bills would be.  Plus the state wants to cut off my food stamps even though I fulfill my obligations. I'll be wearing my Stone Cold shirt, though. |

Can't say I'm super thrilled for tonight's show, but I'll be here. It's safe to say that at the very least Owens/Rollins, Jericho/Zayn and Bayley/Sasha/Charlotte should all be solid matches if given the time.
Predictions
Owens thanks to Triple H
Charlotte
Jericho
Reigns
Perkins
Anderson and Gallows (though lord knows right now, they might keep the belts on New Day until they break Demoltion's record)
Sheamus
Nia

Why is the SmackDown Tag Team Championship match listed on this card for a RAW PPV?

Actually forgot that there's a ppv tonight. We're only in month 2 of the brand split and already these PPV's feel second rate and skippable. |

I've given up Raw completely and am purely SD now but I'll probably watch this tomorrow after work.

Actually forgot that there's a ppv tonight. We're only in month 2 of the brand split and already these PPV's feel second rate and skippable. To be fair, that problem was happening before the brand split started. Certainly interesting to see if having more PPVs that feel less important is a better value proposition than less PPVs that feel more important. As for tonight, it looks like a good card on paper and they certainly have the talent to have some great matches, but the real question is the execution. If tonight is full of ass backwards wins and dumb finishes, then it certainly will help with my decision to only watch Raw highlights. |

I know it won't happen because TJ Perkins has only been champion for a week and a half, but I'd love to see Kendrick get an upset win. After his storyline in the CWC, it would be a feel good ending for him to return to WWE and become the champion.

You simmed on WrestleMania 2000, most matches would last 55+ minutes & ended in a double count out. |

Predictions:
Owens
The Club
Reigns (via DQ)
Bayley
Sheamus
Zayn
TJ Perkins
Nia Jaxx
Guessing HHH will show up again and cost Seth again. Hopefully Bayley wins the title which then leads to a Dana v Charlotte feud and Sasha turning heel on Bayley. Cesaro should win the best of 7 but I have no faith in WWE to push him so I think Sheamus will win.
