WWE Night of Champions Preview\Predictions

WWE Championship Six Pack Challenge
Sheamus (c) vs. Wade Barrett vs. Edge vs. Randy Orton vs. John Cena:
Booking wise, since the match was announced that it will be an elimination match, there are two major ways it could go:

1:
The Orton Vs Sheamus feud will continue, leading either Orton picking up the title, or it will lead to Sheamus pinning Orton (“for the first time”) and from that, it will go on to a bigger and longer feud (i.e. Orton vs Cena).

2:
The most obvious wrestlers will be eliminated first, meaning Orton, Sheamus and Cena, all of them will be eliminated, leading to Edge, Barret and Y2J for the pickup, I don’t think the WWE will give Barret the title, but I think it could lead to a feud if Y2J (not sure what's his status with WWE in recent weeks since his contract expired) picks up the title.

Even though it can happen, I don’t think Sheamus should retain, giving Sheamus the “lucky” title run was enough for what it was worth, the WWE need something new, Orton as a face champion could be really interesting, also someone like Edge picking the title from nowhere could work aswell.


World Heavyweight Championship Match
Kane (c) vs. The Undertaker:
This feud was terrible since day one, there is a reason why both Kane and Undertaker do not do segments as much if any, the whole tone of the feud was interesting on paper, but the execution of the writing and the “acting” was really bad.
My guess is that Kane will pick up the win, attack Taker afterwards, and it will give Kane a big feud until Taker will be back full time for a title run.


United States Championship Match
The Miz (c) vs. Daniel Bryan:
Even though I was high on Bryan for his story as a whole, wrestling wise, I was not impressed with what I saw so far, and his character is really boring, but hey, as long as he get the title off The Miz, im fine.

Speaking of boring characters, The Miz is very appreciated backstage, and it looks like he will get a main event push soon (that is why he will drop the title), rumors are saying a long feud with Orton (well get to that) or someone else, in the end, I don’t want that to happen, but it’s not up to me, the match will probably be very classic “Face losing” leading Bryan hitting his submission at the end, Bryan will pick up the title, and probably will go to a feud with someone stabilized.


Intercontinental Championship Match
Dolph Ziggler (c) vs. Kofi Kingston:
Well, it is pretty obvious to me, that Ziggler will retain the title, but something will happen, story wise, with Vickie, my guess is that Vickie will try to interfere, Ziggler\Vickie will fight, leading to them “breaking up”, and in the end, Ziggler will pick up the win regardless (I would assume in a “dirty” way).


WWE Tag Team Championship Match
The Hart Dynasty (c) vs. TBA:
Well… since HD got their titles, they had almost no TV time besides a few awful matches against the USO's, my guess that this match will be a gauntlet match featuring:
USO, Hawkings\Archer, Cody\Drew that will lead to victory for HD for these three matches, but the last match will be a new faction, perhaps even Nexus that will pick up the titles and end this terrible run.


Big Show vs. CM Punk:
While I do think this match can be (and probably will be) horrible, I believe this is the end of S.E.S, that faction was going for way too long for my taste, the actual wrestlers were not good, and CM Punk was boring for a lot of that run, on the other hand, this feud was really bad since the beginning, so hopefully, this is the end for everything, SES and this feud, my guess it will end with Big Show picking up the win, punk finally shake big show's hand, Luke\Joey come to attack Big Show, and Punk does a face turn to save Big Show.

TNA No Surrender Preview\Predictions

SEMI-FINAL MATCHS
Mr. Anderson vs. The Pope and Kurt Angle vs. Jeff Hardy:

Well, I was super disappointed that Hardy Vs Angle was not the main event at BFG, but the two major things already did not make sense, firstly, TNA went with Anderson Pope since they had problems before, and also the fact that Angle defeated both Pope and Anderson, does not help the credibility, on the other hand, when Angle wins his match against Hardy, it will resolve into that again, unless something happens and it will wound up to a four way (Abyss attacking all four in the two matches or something like that).

Winners: Anderson and Kurt Angle. Reason? Anderson and Angle had decent matches when Anderson was a heel, it would be more interesting to see a tweener going against Angle.

TNA WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
Motor City Machineguns (c) vs. Desmond Wolfe and Magnus:

Potentially, this could be the match of the PPV, but sadly, the MCMG lately have become really annoying with their taunts and the really boring face moves, and its disappointing since they have great move set and fluid moves that usually you don’t see very often.
The horrible gimmick and setup of Wolfe and Magnus does not detract from the potential of both of them to become something great, even though Wolfe could have been in the title scene for sure, his heat backstage led him to tag team, which Is not bad, since it could give him some positive points.
It is a great rivalry on paper, but Wolfe and Magnus will not pick a victory just yet, my guess it will end either clean victory to the Guns, or it will end very cheesy like it used to happen in the past, just to keep the rivalry going, which is the plan anyway.

Winners: No Contest.

I-QUIT MATCH
AJ Styles vs. Tommy Dreamer:

Since Tommy Dreamer signed and wrestled in TNA, he lost all the matches so far, meaning the “character momentum” is there, but booking wise, it is an odd thing to see him loose constantly, and with Fortune leading the way to dominance, story wise, I would take a hit and say AJ will win(not clean obviously, especially with Flair).

It could totally go to a different place, meaning Dreamer winning, leading all fortune to take attack Dreamer, Nexus style (ohh god, what have I become), leading to Fortune proud of the three members of Ecw that were taken out (another angle that can happen in the Sabu match since Abyss\Rhino will end quite brutal, you would assume right?).
Winner: Aj Styles with the option of Dreamer if they will go with an attack angle, perhaps if the other matches will end with Ecw loosing.

X DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
Sabu vs. (c) Douglas Williams:

One of the weirdest booking I have seen in a long time, TNA could definitely put Kendrick against Williams and perhaps even give the title to Kendrick, which will lead for Brian to prove himself to ECW, especially after the last Impact.

Instead they went with Sabu, and sure, he looks ok shape and ring rust wise, but it is obvious that Williams will pick up the win, cause if not, I am going to be very pissed to give someone like Sabu that title, instead of so many worthy and hungry talents.
Winner: Douglas Williams.

TAG TEAM MATCH
Sting and Kevin Nash vs. Jeff Jarrett and Samoa Joe:

As one would wonder, what is the direction of this angle as a whole, since we know Hogan\Bischoff will stay at the company, and since they will not do any angle where Hogan\Bischoff will “quit” as a story to “stop” Sting\Nash.

It’s hard to understand where this is going, and the way they portrayed Joe's “rescue” (meaning cheesy and bad), I would take a guess that the heels will pick a victory with Jarret accidently attacking Joe (or vice versa) and that is leading to a feud between them.

Winners: Sting and Nash.

FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE MATCH
Abyss vs. "The War Machine" Rhino:

A though one to predict, TNA is really pushing Abyss towards 10\10\10 and the whole (horrible) heel run, and the fact that the whole ECW (Ahm, i'm sorry, EV2.0) hopefully won’t last long, or atleast not in full capacity when we will see Rhino and Foley as tag team champions or Tommy Dreamer as the whc champion or anything unfitting like Sabu winning the X Division title.. Oh wait...

Winner: Abyss. Unless I am totally wrong on the angle and they will drag it down from Abyss's stand point and maybe start to reveal\hint at other people or something like that.
