Prophecies of DaSavior

Backlash 2017


Randy Orton vs. Jinder Mahal

WWE Championship

Prediction:Randy Orton
Prophecy:I don't think WWE will go all the way here. The only reason Mahal became number 1 contender was to promote the company's new deal with India or something. I don't think they need to rush the WWE Title onto Mahal for that, though. Jinder seems to be taking the Muhammad Hassan path with his character, so I wonder if they are attempting the Hassan push for Mahal here, just don't do anything similar to what they did with Hassan on the day of those (Paris? London?) attacks.
Result:Jinder Mahal wins
0 Points Awarded

The Usos vs. Breezango

WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship

Prediction:The Usos
Prophecy:Both these teams have been phenomenal. I quite enjoy the Fashion Files from Breezango and The Usos have been cutting amazing promos since their heel turn. With all of this said, I can't see Breezango getting the titles here. The Usos are on fire right now and I can't see them dropping the titles any time soon.
Result:The Usos wins
1 Point Awarded

Kevin Owens vs. A.J. Styles

WWE United States Championship

Prediction:Kevin Owens
Prophecy:I don't know what they want to do with this title. Owens wins it at Mania just so Jericho can win it back and move to SmackDown Live, just so that way Owens can win it back and write him off TV. My issue is that neither of these guys should be in the midcard, or at least one of them. Owens did just drop the title very recently, though. I don't see him dropping the title twice in two months after just winning it back.
Result:Kevin Owens wins
1 Point Awarded

Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Dolph Ziggler

Prediction:Shinsuke Nakamura
Prophecy:Nakamura is making his PPV debut and they are treating him like a big star, despite facing Ziggler his first match. I expect the King of Strong Style to get a big win on his way to likely becoming WWE Champion very soon.
This is my lock.
Result:Shinsuke Nakamura wins
1 Point Awarded (+1 bonus point)

Naomi, Becky Lynch & Charlotte vs. The Welcoming Committee

Six-Woman Tag Team Match

Prediction:The Welcoming Committee
Prophecy:I smell someone from the other team turning on the group. Either Becky turns heel here or Charlotte ditches the group. I'm not a fan of Women's Tag matches on PPV as they don't usually achieve much, unless it's debuting Bayley like at Battleground. :P
Result:The Welcoming Committee wins
1 Point Awarded

Baron Corbin vs. Sami Zayn

Prediction:Baron Corbin
Prophecy:Corbin is my pick for MITB, and maybe the next WWE Champion. Dude is bound for greatness, and I saw it from day one. It'll be awesome for him to finally take to the main event scene by storm.
Result:Sami Zayn wins
0 Points Awarded

Luke Harper vs. Erick Rowan

Prediction:Luke Harper
Prophecy:Rowan got the win on free TV, Harper wins on PPV. I didn't know this match was official, I gotta watch Talking Smack more.
Result:Luke Harper wins
1 Point Awarded

Tye Dillinger vs. Aiden English

Kickoff Match

Prediction:Tye Dillinger
Prophecy:Tye is making his debut, and I see him being pretty big. I can see him racking up losses in big matches, but he's not doing the job to Aiden English of all people.
Result:Tye Dillinger wins
