After Wrestlemania, I am 13-5 in my predictions.
Here are my picks for EXTREME RULES:
-Chris Jericho vs. Fandango
Fandango did the impossible at Wrestlemania. He scored a win in his very first match
against the first Undisputed Champion, Chris Jericho. It was an impressive debut. But Chris Jericho is too good of a wrestler
to lose twice to a rookie. Look for
Jericho to make up for his embarrassing loss at Wrestlemania with a win at
Extreme Rules.
Winner: Chris Jericho
-Randy Orton vs. Big Show
Extreme Rules Match
Randy Orton needs a win in this match. He really does not have a direction right
now. And Big Show tends to choke in
matches that should favor him. Orton
will find a way to fell the giant and get his career back on track.
Winner: Randy Orton
-Sheamus vs. Mark Henry
Strap Match
Mark Henry has been trying to portray himself as a ‘monster’
ever since his big Wrestlemania win. He
has been performing incredible feats of strength to show the WWE Universe that
he is indeed the World’s Strongest Man.
Feats of strength mean nothing if he cannot win inside of the squared
circle. Henry will be determined to
prove his strength in the ring. Sheamus
will not be able to stand up to a motivated Mark Henry.
Winner: Mark Henry
-WWE Tag Team Championship Match
Team Hell No: Kane and Daniel Bryan (CHAMPIONS) vs. The
Shield (Reigns and Rollins)
Tag Team Tornado Match
Kane and Daniel Bryan have been dominate Champions. They have held the Tag Team Championship for
an impressive 8 months. They should be
the toughest test for The Shield. But
The Shield has risen to every challenge that has come their way since they
debuted in late 2012. It is time for The
Shield to go from being impressive upstarts to Champions. Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins will rise to
the challenge yet again and win the Tag Team Championship.
Winners and NEW WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS: The Shield
-United States Championship Match
Kofi Kingston (CHAMPION) vs. Dean Ambrose
The Shield members are not used to one on one
competition. They excel in group
attacks. But this will be the biggest
night in the Shield’s short career. Dean
Ambrose will bring another title to the group when he wins the US Championship. The Shield will walk away from Extreme Rules
as the Tag Team and US Champions. It
will be the “SUMMER OF THE SHEILD”.
Winner and NEW UNITED STATES CHAMPION: DEAN AMBROSE
-Alberto Del Rio vs. Jack Swagger
I Quit Match
Del Rio and Swagger continue their politically charged
feud. There no way that Alberto Del Rio
will utter the embarrassing words ‘I Quit’ to the man that has been saying so
many derogatory things about him.
Winner: Alberto Del
Rio
-Triple H vs. Brock Lesner
Triple H defeated Lesner at Wrestlemania. Brock Lesner will be motivated to avenge that
loss. He will win inside of the cage.
Winner: Brock Lesner
-WWE Championship
John Cena (CHAMPION) vs. Ryback
Last Man Standing Match
It is hard to pick against John Cena at Extreme Rules. He is 6-1 at this Pay-Per-View. Ryback will be a tough challenge for the
Champ. Ryback has been struggling to
show that he has earned a spot in the main event scene. He failed miserably in his feud against The
Shield. This may be Ryback’s last chance
to show that he is a head line talent. A
loss here would probably send him back to the mid card level. It will be a hard fought match. But Cena just won the WWE Championship. He will find a way to hold onto it.
Winner and STILL WWE CHAMPION: John Cena
