WrestleMania predictions, 2022
Silas and The Baron give their predictions for "The Showcase of the Immortals", or WrestleMania, as you may know it better.
Silas and The Baron call it like this:
Charlotte vs Ronda Rousey
Silas: Ronda. She hasn't returned to lose, especially not at 'Mania.
The Baron: If this isn't Ronda's night, then I don't know what it.
Becky Lynch vs Bianca Belair
Silas: Tougher to call. Given the build, has to be Belair? Maybe Rousey to interfere to help set up 'Mania 23
The Baron: Belair, I think the vibe is for Becky to have some family time, and this would be a payoff nicely for the long build of Belair as a force to be reckoned with
Steve Austin vs Kevin Owens
Silas: Owens. Not sure this will even be a match, TBH
The Baron: Owens. No mileage in Austin winning.
Rollins vs ??????
Silas: Cody Rhodes is surely the mystery opponent. Again, a chance for Rollins to have family time with Becky when he loses?
The Baron: If it's Rhodes, he's going to win, however improbably, to give Rollins a break.
Usos vs Nakamura & Boogs
Silas: Don't care. Let's say Nakamura, because I like his music. And if that isn't a weak reason to be interested, I don't know what is.
The Baron: Wake me up when it's over. Nakamura, he deserves something after basically jobbing for WWE for the last few years.
Paul/Miz vs Mysterios
Silas: Paul/Miz to give a reason for a Mysterio break-up.
The Baron: Agree, ideal chance for Rey Mysterio to start looking at retirement/passing the torch.
McIntyre vs Corbin
Silas: Drew. If not... doesn't bear thinking about.
The Baron: Is this really a WM-calibre match? Let's say Corbin, just to be awkward.
Reigns vs Lesnar
Silas: Lesnar, if he plans on staying for an extended period. Heyman double-cross, maybe, to move back to Lesnar, or a DQ to protect both and prolong the storyline. Yep, DQ Reigns finish so he keeps the belt but Lesnar "wins"
The Baron: Hmm... tough one, I think Reigns will retain, but Heyman will attempt a double-cross (agree on that) and then promise to help Lesnar regain the belt at the next PPV
Tag Team 3-way
Silas: RK Bro, but don't care
The Baron: Don't care, but RK Bro seems the obvious choice here
Women's Fatal 4-way
Silas: Ripley and Morgan... Morgan's first title here
The Baron: Yep, they have been building Morgan, so have to agree with that
Edge vs Styles
Silas: Styles, to give Edge a rest
The Baron: Yep, Styles to keep him interested, and to lay off Edge, who they have been using quite consistently since his return
Knoxville vs Zayn
Silas: Â Knoxville, with interference from Jackass
The Baron: I'm going to say Zayn, otherwise if I was him I'd be seriously questioning why I was with WWE, other than reading the cheque and loving it. Embarrassing
Lashley vs Omos
Silas: Lashley, Omos isn't ready for a win like this yet
The Baron: I'm going to say Omos, to really build some momentum and offer a bigger payoff for Lashley in the future
McAfee vs Theory
Silas: Theory, interference from Vincent in some way shape or form
The Baron: Austin Theory has heat, I think he's fairly solid choice here
