Chris Jericho vs. John "Bradshaw" LayfieldLoud Mouths CollidePrediction:John "Bradshaw" Layfield
Prophecy:JBL is Back! I am so thrilled that he has returned to the ring. Also there should be no bashing that he went to RAW. It is only an evolution of the business-find fresh opponents. JBL has fought and beaten everyone on Smackdown, and this feud with Jericho is exactly what these two need. Let's be honest-Y2J was neevr going to win the belt in his first month back, and either was JBL, so this is perfect. As for the victor, Jericho goes crazy and gets a DQ called on him. The feud continues, and JBL can even make a guarantee that he will win before the match starts, so he can gloat about that next Monday.
Result:John "Bradshaw" Layfield wins

MVP vs. Ric FlairCareer Threatening MatchPrediction:Ric Flair
Prophecy:Flair rides high in MSG one more time. The US title is not on the line, so it doesn't matter as to who gets the belt. Matt Hardy may run in here, but a clean win for the Nature Boy in New York is fitting. A DQ/countout win is possible for Ric, but based on my pick for another match-a 'finish' has to occur in this match.
Result:Ric Flair wins

The Royal Rumble Match30 Man Battle RoyalPrediction:Undertaker
Prophecy:I see it only going 4 ways. A small chance is actually to Shelton Benjamin, as he is exactly what ECW needs, especially since Chavo is champ. Batista is the next wild card pick, as he could fight either champ at Mania. (RAW or Smackdown's) Triple H is actually my second pick, as I expect Vince and Co. to screw him out of the shot one more time, ala Big Show, Hogan or any other star debuting/returning Sunday. Undertaker winning back-to-back Rumbles is the way to go. He can face Edge at Mania, win and get his belt back, while HHH will have one more obstacle in his journey back to the WWE title-Elimination Chamber.
Result:Unannounced (*Cena) wins

Randy Orton vs. Jeff HardyWWE ChampionshipPrediction:Randy Orton
Prophecy:I know a lot of people are hoping and praying for the upset, but I just don't see it happening here. I actually hope I am wrong, but plans are plans from January to April, and just look back at 2006. Edge was supposed to be a 'one time-off feud' with Cena. He won the belt, caught on huge with the crowd, but HHH vs. Cena went through. hardy may have involvement in the title picture in the future, but Orton wins this one, off a mistake made by Jeff, like some high risk move not needed.
Result:Randy Orton wins

Edge vs. Rey MysterioWorld Heavyweight ChampionshipPrediction:Edge
Prophecy:This is indeed a pitstop match if there ever was one. No doubt, it should be a great match, but Edge steals the win. Rey isn't going to win. He will find a nice spot in the Money in the Bank Ladder match at Mania, while Edge will be defending the belt.
Result:Edge wins
