WWE Extreme Rules 2012 Predictions

It’s time for the one night of the year where the WWE goes Extreme, which is taking at the Allstate Arena in Chicago. Only 6 games have been announced so far, so let’s look at the card.

The pre-show match on YouTube features Santino Marella defending his United States Championship against The Miz. I think that this could be a good match. However, I don’t think they would get a lot of time and I can’t The Most Must-See WWE Superstar in Miz-tory winning. Therefore, I think that Santino will retain.

Predicted Winner: Santino Marella

The Divas Championship as Beth Phoenix attempts to regain the title from Nikki Bella. The match they had on Monday was quite decent and, whilst I love Beth to get the title back, I don’t think that will happen. The fact that it’s a match between 2 heels doesn’t help things either. I think that Nikki will retain and there is a possibility that Kharma could return this night and destroy Nikki.

Predicted Winner: Nikki Bella

The Intercontinental Championship is on the line in a rematch from Wrestlemania as Cody Rhodes challenges The Big Show. The stipulations for this match will be decided by a roll of the wheel before the match. I don’t see the point of either guy being the Champion for some reason. Despite that, I think that Show will retain.

Predicted Winner: The Big Show

Randy Orton will take on Kane in a Falls Count Anywhere match. This feud has gotten interesting over the last few weeks and I’m quite looking forward to this. I think that Orton will win and Kane will turn his hate onto someone else.

Predicted Winner: Randy Orton

The World Heavyweight Championship will be on line between Sheamus and Daniel Bryan in a 2 out of 3 falls match. Sheamus has been decent as a champion and Bryan is more over than I thought possible. I would love for Bryan to continually scream “Yes!” as he regains the Championship. However, I think it’s more likely that Sheamus will retain in a match that had better last more than 18 seconds.

Predicted Winner: Sheamus

The WWE Championship will be defended in a Chicago Street Fight as Chris Jericho challenges home town boy CM Punk. Their match at Wrestlemania was really good and I hope that we get something similar here. I can’t see Punk losing in his home town so I think he’ll win and Jericho will win it at Over the Limit.

Predicted Winner: CM Punk

John Cena will take on Brock Lesnar in an Extreme Rules match. This will undoubtedly be a brutal match and entertaining. Whilst we will probably see glimpses of Super Cena, Brock has to win this match. Otherwise, what the fuck was the point?

Predicted Winner: Brock Lesnar

So there it is. I expect one or two bonus matches to be added, probably featuring Brodus Clay or Ryback. This could be a good event, so I hope you enjoy it and my review of the show will be up on Monday or Tuesday.
