Great to see a predictions video from you. I have my own predictions. These are always formulated before watching your videos, and sent out via e-mail to my one-person audience. As it turns out, our predictions are essentially the same. Mine are as follows, in the match order I predict, but one I suspect will not be followed by WWE. For the women's Money in the Bank match, like you, I've got Tiffany Stratton winning. Chelsea Green is another possibility, because she could use it to annoy Nick Aldis a lot. The others participants are not winning for various reasons, including the ones you outlined. I have Sami Zayn vs Bron Breakker for the IC championship next. I also predict a Sami Zayn retention. Breakker will be a main eventer by 2026, but now isn't yet the time to put gold on him. Most of the WWE Universe - those who don't watch NXT - are still learning what he brings to the table. I have the men's MITB bout third. Again, I am with you on the Jey Uso prediction. There is a case to be made for Drew McIntyre winning, then unsuccessfully cashing it in later in the night, the result of CM Punk interference. But, I think Punk interferes to prevent that from happening in the first place. Logan Paul is guaranteed to cost LA Knight here. WWE could be tempted to elevate Hayes but, like Bron Breakker, he's not yet ready to take the next step. And WWE is still trying to figure out what to do with Andrade. I have Damian Priest vs Seth Rollins next, though I won't be surprised if WWE books it as the main event. I agree with you once more, it's Priest whose winning and retaining. Remember, if he loses, he's out of the Judgment Day. I don't see that happening in this manner. Meanwhile, Rollins needs more time to regain his momentum. A title switch here doesn't come across as beneficial. Whatever plans WWE has with Priest - and it may be a program with Gunther - will seemingly require him to remain champion. I've got the Bloodline vs Owens/Orton/Rhodes as the main event. I agree with you once more with the result, but actually think the Bloodline's participants won't have Tama Tonga as odd man out. Instead, I see Jacob Fatu as assuming the role of enforcer, which means he won't officially in the bout... but will obviously interfere. What WWE also needs to do is not only have the Bloodline win, but have Solo Sikoa pin Cody Rhodes. That would set up Rhodes vs Sikoa at SummerSlam, with the Bloodline super hot and with Solo being able to say he succeeded in pinning the Nightmare where Roman Reigns failed. If you saw Smackdown, the final segment had Sikoa, for the first time, blaming Reigns for the Wrestlemania 40 loss, calling him weak. Getting a pinfall on Rhodes here would give Sikoa more ammunition for a SummerSlam title shot, for Reigns' inevitable return and for the Old Bloodline vs New Bloodline feud that will culminate at Survivor Series with a major heel turn. But, let me not get too far ahead of myself. Enjoy the show. Happy to hear you plan a review video.
