WHERE CHATTERS GO TO TALK ABOUT OFF TOPIC STUFF!
First things first: As a reminder, for only the 2nd time ever, Summerslam will be on a Saturday, not Sunday. If you are thinking about watching, keep that in mind.
On to the matches: Rumored: RAW Tag Team Championship AJ Styles & Omos (c) vs. RK-Bro (Randy Orton, Matt Riddle) If this match actually happens, my gut says, RK-Bro picks up the titles, for a few reasons...AJ Styles is absolutely being wasted in the tag division, he needs to re-enter the singles scene immediately, and Omos needs to branch out as his own individual wrestler too...Also, Giving them the tag titles makes the strain between Orton and Riddle funnier to watch. Orton and Riddle right now are kind of going the humorous route, with Riddle seemingly clueless about the fact that Orton has turned on every single person he's ever teamed up with...by being associated with Orton, Riddle gets the rub. WWE clearly likes the guy (I don't, personally I hate him), so having him win the tag titles with Orton helps solidify his main roster credibility. Prediction: RK-Bro? CONFIRMED MATCHES Added on RAW Alexa Bliss vs. Eva Marie w/Doudrop (Piper Niven) Why is this match here? Eva Marie CANNOT wrestle. Asuka can't get on the card, but EVA MARIE gets a spot? UGH. Prediction: Alexa Bliss gets the easy win. Drew McIntyre vs. Jinder Mahal I guess they needed to have Drew on the show somehow...Squash match. Prediction: Drew McIntyre US Championship Match Sheamus (c) vs. Damian Priest This has the potential to be the kind of match that can define Priest's WWE career. Not that it will make him a star, Sheamus certainly doesn't have that ability to rub off on other wrestlers...but a win here by Priest, establishes him as a solid mid-carder on the RAW roster. He's kind of been directionless since coming up from NXT, a win here can fix that. Prediction: Damien Priest wins US title. Edge vs. Seth Rollins This is going to be the first of a few themed predictions....Edge's job here is to make Seth Rollins look good. Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns is absolutely going to happen at some point, perhaps this fall/winter as they wait to set up Reigns/Rock at next year's Wrestlemania. Rollins hasn't been doing much since coming back from being with Becky during maternity leave. That ends this Saturday. Edge does the job, Rollins starts moving back into the main event scene. Prediction: Seth Rollins Smackdown Tag Team Championship The Usos (c) vs. The Mysterios Honestly? I flipped a coin here, LOL. I have no idea what WWE's plans might be for this match. Prediction: Mysterios regain titles, because it came up tails. Smackdown Women's Championship Bianca Belair (c) vs. Sasha Banks A Wrestlemania rematch! Bianca's title run has been solid. She's proven to be more than capable of holding her own on Smackdown, after she got called up from NXT. Crowd loves her, she's got a good gimmick, but, you can't be champ forever. At some point she is going to need to drop the belt, and after the way Sasha Banks did her the favor at Wrestlemania, I think Bianca returns it here. Prediction: Sasha Banks regains title. RAW Women's Championship Nikki ASH (Cross) (c) vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Rhea Ripley It's been a fun run, hasn't it? Honestly, I love Nikki Cross's superhero gimmick. It's just fun, and she is enjoying the hell out of it. But she doesn't need the belt for this underdog gimmick to work. This is where I would then normally predict Charlotte Flair to get the win, to add to her collection...BUT, I am not gonna do that. While Nikki's gimmick doesn't NEED the belt to work, I think she gets one last PPV out of having it. She drops it next PPV, not this one. Prediction: Nikki ASH, inexplicably finds a way to retain. WWE Championship/WWE Universal Championship Roman Reigns (c) vs. John Cena, Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Goldberg Combining these two matches, because the end results are both going to be the same, as is the reasoning to get to those results...Cena and Goldberg are there to make the Champions look good. Neither are back full time, Neither can really do another title run. Both Cena and Goldberg are there not just as filler, but to help shine the belts with the prestige getting wins over guys of their caliber comes with. Predictions: Roman Reigns, Bobby Lashley
