Sami Zayn vs Baron Corbin
Winner: Sami Zayn
Comments:

PRE-SHOW:

Tye Dillinger vs Aiden English
Winner: Tye Dillinger
Comments: I actually think it makes more sense to have English win here, but Tye seems to be in line for a push.

WWE BACKLASH 2017:

WWE Championship
Randy Orton (c) vs Jinder Mahal
Winner: Randy Orton
Comments: This one seems pretty obvious

WWE Smackdown Tag Team Titles:
The Usos (c) vs the Fashion Police
Winners: The Usos
Comments: I am a fan of Breezango, but Smackdown needs to establish a heel tag team to face The New Day

WWE United States Title:
Kevin Owens (c) vs AJ Styles
Winner: AJ Styles
Comments: This one might be by DQ. Owens new gimmick is built for the US title, so it would be odd to take the title off of him. However, it is also odd to see AJ lose clean.

Shinsuke Nakamura vs Dolph Ziggler
Winner: Shinsuke Nakamura
Comments: Was there ever a doubt who wins this match?

Sami Zayn vs Baron Corbin
Winner: Baron Corbin
Comments: I can never truly tell when Sami will win. I assume Corbin is being established to go after Orton.

Luke Harper vs Erick Rowan
Winner: Luke Harper
Comments: Could go either way.

Naomi, Charlotte and Becky vs Natalya, Carmella and Tamina
Winners: The Welcoming Committee
Comments: I got nothing

Bonus Questions:
What match will be in the main event spot? Orton vs Jinder
Will there be a double cross in the women's tag team match? No
Which match will be given the most time? Owens vs Styles
Name an unadvertised Smackdown wrestler who will make an appearance on the main card: Mojo Rawley

Thanks for putting it up Steve, beat me to it.

PRE-SHOW:

Tye Dillinger vs Aiden English
Winner: Tye Dillinger
Comments: Crowd will be hyped for Tye, English doesn't need this given his limited role.

WWE BACKLASH 2017:

WWE Championship
Randy Orton (c) vs Jinder Mahal
Winner: Randy Orton
Comments: I'm tempted to take Jinder here, really tempted. But I still think they might get cold feet pulling the trigger on it, even for a short transitional reign.

WWE Smackdown Tag Team Titles:
The Usos (c) vs the Fashion Police
Winners: The Usos
Comments: I hope this match is a breakout performance for Breezango. I think they may have something with this team, something more than they are now anyway. They're not winning the straps though.

WWE United States Title:
Kevin Owens (c) vs AJ Styles
Winner: Kevin Owens
Comments: They didn't build him up as the "Face of America" for him to lose the title this quickly. I do think he'll win be cheating somehow though.

Shinsuke Nakamura vs Dolph Ziggler
Winner: Nakamura
Comments: Ziggler winning after all this build has a small chance of happening just to "swerve" people and continue the feud. But sometimes simple is best, have Nakamura pummel Ziggler and win clean.

Sami Zayn vs Baron Corbin
Winner: Baron Corbin
Comments: Sami doesn't win matches, come on now. Corbin is the golden boy right now and I believe is being built for an Orton title feud. Maybe for Summerslam.

Luke Harper vs Erick Rowan
Winner: Luke Harper
Comments: Rowan won their last meeting. 50/50 booking says it's Harper's turn.

Naomi, Charlotte and Becky vs Natalya, Carmella and Tamina
Winners: Naomi, Charlotte, Becky
Comments: The real drama here is if someone on the face team turns heel, Charlotte is teased but I don't see it. If anyone does it'll be Becky. But then the sides are uneven. I'll say turns are teased but don't happen and the faces win.

Bonus Questions:
What match will be in the main event spot? Owens/AJ
Will there be a double cross in the women's tag team match? No
Which match will be given the most time? Owens/AJ
Name an unadvertised Smackdown wrestler who will make an appearance on the main card: Rusev
Will Rusev make an appearance? Yes

Re: Roundtable 6 - Backlash 2017

Postby Hanley! » May 21, '17, 4:37 pm

PRE-SHOW:

Tye Dillinger vs Aiden English
Winner: The Perfect 10
Comments: Pretty easy call here. Dillinger seems to be getting a mini-push and English's gimmick seems to revolve around crying when he loses. This is only going one way.

WWE BACKLASH 2017:

WWE Championship
Randy Orton (c) vs Jinder Mahal
Winner: Mahal
Comments: I'm putting myself on the line a bit here. I think Mahal will win by DQ. They've pushed him to the main event out of nowhere. If he loses clean then he's just a nobody again. They should try to do something to make this more than just a waste of time. So I think he wins by DQ, maybe after interference by someone like Rusev. We'll see if it goes down that way.

WWE Smackdown Tag Team Titles:
The Usos (c) vs the Fashion Police
Winners: Usos
Comments: Probably too soon for the Usos to lose. Wouldn't really surprise me if the Fashion Police picked up the win, but I don't think it's happening yet.

WWE United States Title:
Kevin Owens (c) vs AJ Styles
Winner: Owens
Comments: I don't think Styles is winning the title. It's too soon to bring Owens "Face of America" gimmick to an end (despite how shit an idea it is). And Styles should really be the next WWE champion. I could see him winning this one by DQ, but either way I don't think he's walking away with the title. Because I'm going for a DQ in the main event, I say Owens picks up the straight win here after some minor shenanigans.

Shinsuke Nakamura vs Dolph Ziggler
Winner: Nakamura
Comments: Only going one way. Nakamura can't lose this early, and Ziggler can't seem to win in general. I just hope that Nakamura has a great match here. He's under-performed since his debut match against Sami Zayn in NXT. He's so fucking charismatic, but he needs to start backing that up with some great performances in the ring or he'll lose that special aura pretty soon.

Sami Zayn vs Baron Corbin
Winner: Sami Zayn
Comments: I'm expecting classic WWE booking here, where they make Zayn look like a geek every week until the pay per view and then they have him pick up a fluke win at the pay per view. Then they'll make him look like a geek every week afterwards. Then they'll wonder why he's not getting over, after they gave him that big win.

Luke Harper vs Erick Rowan
Winner: Harper
Comments: Could go either way, but Harper is the one with the potential here so I hope they give it to him. Rowan adds basically nothing to this product. The only cool thing about him is a sheep mask that could be worn by literally anybody.

Naomi, Charlotte and Becky vs Natalya, Carmella and Tamina
Winners: Welcoming Committee
Comments: I feel like this is a good time to set up a future feud for Naomi, and the best way to do that is for her team to lose. It'd be better if she was pinned too.

Bonus Questions:
What match will be in the main event spot? I could see this being the US title match or the Nakamura match, but I'm going to chicken out and play it safe and go for the WWE title match.
Will there be a double cross in the women's tag team match? No
Which match will be given the most time? US Title
Name an unadvertised Smackdown wrestler who will make an appearance on the main card: New Day
Will Rusev make an appearance? Yes
