Big Show vs. Carlito Caribbean Cool (w/Matt Morgan)
PK: Carlito is still fresh off the injury, and is WAY over with the Cabana…so I think they need to keep their momentum going, and have him get the win here, even if it does involved M-M-Matt Mo-Mor-Mo-Morgan.
Winner – CCC
Gordi: Getting squashed isn’t cool.
Winner – Big Show due to bothchd Int-int-t-t-t…
David Brashear: This will be painful. I see Carlito getting the win with Matt Morgan’s help. That’s cool.
Winner – Carlito
Jeremy Lambert: Maybe Big Show wont even show up due to apple poisoning thus saving us from having to watch what should be a horrible match
Winner – He’s Cool
Matthew Michael: With Big Matt in his corner, Carlito’s got this one locked up. Show will be drafted to RAW, anyway.
Winner – Carlito
Paul London (c) vs. Chavo Guerrero – Cruiserweight Title
PK: People LOVE London…but this stuff with Chavo has to end. They need to push the CW title like a TV title…have it defended on almost every SD…they’ve got plenty of guys to do it. Anyway, it would be a much better idea to keep the belt on London…finally push the Kidman program fellas!
Winner – London
Gordi: Please don’t suck! Please don’t suck!
Winner – Paul London
David Brashear: This has a lot of promise, although a lot depends on whether Evil Uncle Eddie feels like he needs to interfere to help Chavo out. I’ll go with Paul London hanging onto the belt for now – mainly because I really want to see London mix it up with some of the new cruisers they’re bringing in.
Winner – Paul London
Jeremy Lambert: Whoa the cruisers are actually getting a match. Has this thing even been built up? I give it 7 minutes if that
Winner – He should have stayed in TNA
Matthew Michael: London’s getting the win, FINALLY beating Chavo one-on-one (something he hasn’t done yet, as he won the title in a battle royale … and something Chavo won’t shut up about). This should open the night and be an awesome 10-minute match (although I won’t complain if it goes longer).
Winner – Paul London
MNM (c) vs. Charlie Haas & Hardcore Holly – WWE Tag Team Titles
PK: Man do I HATE the Haas/Holly tag team. I mean, I know Haas doesn’t have the charisma as Shelton, but he is very talented, and deserves better then this. MNM wins here, Haas heads over to Raw to recreated WGTT, and then feuds with Shelton…easily the best scenerio here.
Winners – MNM
Gordi: I like MNM’s old school heel style tag team wrestling. I hope Hardcore doesn’t hurt either of them.
Winners – MNM
David Brashear: Hardcore Holly hasn’t been released yet?
Winners – MNM
Jeremy Lambert: Would anyone buy Haas and Holly as tag champs? Then again does anyone buy the WWE tag division?
Winners – The Rap Artist
Matthew Michael: No reason for Holly and Haas to win here, as over as house show reports are saying the babyface tag team is. Just break up Holly & Haas leading into the draft. No one buys Charlie as a “good guy” after the botched Jackie/Dawn Marie angle.
Winners – MNM
Kurt Angle vs. Booker T
PK: Angle is probably my favorite active WWE wrestler…the whole rape thing is retarded, and all the heat is pointing towards a Booker T win here.
Winner – Booker T
Gordi: The build up for this has been just terrible. The match might be really good, though.
Winner – Angle?
David Brashear: You know, crap like this match’s buildup are exactly why I don’t watch this show and only read recaps. Put this one to bed and give Booker the win to end it.
Winner – Booker T
Jeremy Lambert: Now this has been built like an episode of Desperate Housewives. The match should be intense considering the build and Intensity is one of the three I’s
Winner – He doesn’t suck
Matthew Michael: I’m personally looking forward to the Kurt Angle/John Cena feud that will HOPEFULLY lead into Summerslam … as for Booker? Not a clue.
Winner – Kurt Angle
Rey Mysterio vs. Eddie Guerrero
PK: Rey will be hot off his time off…but Eddie is still Eddie, and will dominate the match, getting the win back.
Winner – Guerrero
Gordi: Rey… this time… please… really… wear a mask that fits.
Winner – Eddie?
David Brashear: My prediction is that we’re looking at the match of the night with this one. I know that Rey’s probably going to pull this one out, but I think that Evil Eddie would be helped more with a convincing win here.
Winner – Evil Eddie Guerrero
Jeremy Lambert: Another very well built match. This feud should continue into SummerSlam if the WWE is smart. I can see this ending in a DQ
Winner – Rey Rey
Matthew Michael: I really don’t have a clue WHO will win this one. Rey’s battered and bruised, and Eddie hasn’t gotten a win over him yet during this feud. But Eddie doesn’t, in the storylines, really deserve to win. Should be interesting, and I’ll have to pick …
Winner – Eddie Guerrero
Orlando Jordan (c) vs. Heidenreich – US Title
PK: I sense some interference from the Bashems, leading to Heidenreich finding a tag partner to feud with them…oh wait…tag teams don’t exist…OJ will still keep the belt.
Winner – Jordan
Gordi: Oh dear Lord this is going to be terrible.
Winner – The great, storied history of the US Title, which will have another awesome chapter added here… or not.
David Brashear: So Heidenreich’s a good guy now. I’ll call Orlando keeping the belt just so the Cabinet keeps some gold.
Winner – Orlando Jordan
Jeremy Lambert: Since when is Heidenreich face? Because he read a poem about farting. This makes no sense
Winner – Poem Guy
Matthew Michael: I’d LIKE to see them be using Heidenreich to put Jordan over strong and lead to a nice run for the Cabinet member. That being said, I’d never bet on that outcome, and this is a predictions column. Big Bad John is going over here, and who knows, maybe OJ and JBL can be a force in the Tag Division down the road …
Winner – Heidenreich
John Cena (c) vs. JBL – WWE Title – I Quit Match
PK: New theme music. Check. New Hit CD. Check. New style title belt. Check. Winning the WM21 Rematch. Check.
Winner – Cena
Gordi: This should be better than their WrestleMania match-up, at least. I don’t think there is any chance it will live up to the ’89 Clash “I Quit” match, though.
Winner – Cena
David Brashear: Cena’s album was #15 on the charts in its debut. If JBL wins, they cut Cena off at the knees – not the best move to do with possibly the most over guy on the show right now. Plus, this show isn’t Raw and is HHH-free.
Winner – John Cena
Jeremy Lambert: A match that suits both men perfectly, a straight up hardcore brawl. The ending wont suck like it did at Wrestlemania. Go buy John Cenas CD, its actually good
Winner – The Time Is Now
Matthew Michael: How cool would it be if Brock Lesnar made his return here in Minneapolis, beating Mr. Cena down after he makes JBL quit?
Winner – John Cena
