No Mercy (2016) Predictions

 
 

It’s time for Smackdown’s second exclusive PPV Event. This will be my first live event that I attend and I’m very excited. I’ll be running down the card and sharing my predictions.

Jack Swagger vs Baron Corbin

Prediction: Baron Corbin

Baron Corbin is on a path of destruction ever since he's debuted. He hasn’t gone against any bigger names yet, but he’ll get there eventually. This feud seems a little random, but I think Baron will continue to dominate.

Nikki Bella vs Carmella

Prediction: Nikki Bella

Nikki is back from injury and has since been targeted by Carmella. She may not be as athletic as she has been, but I think it’s just as a precaution. After being jumped several times by Carmella, I think it’s time for Nikki to get a clean win.

Smackdown Women’s Championship

Becky Lynch vs Alexa Bliss

Prediction: Becky Lynch

The Women’s division is starting to develop on Smackdown. In my opinion, Becky is the best that they have to offer, for now. It doesn’t make sense to lose the title so soon into her reign, especially to Alexa, who’s still finding her ground.

Smackdown Tag Team Championship

Heath Slater & Rhyno vs The Usos

Prediction: The Usos

This is a tough one to choose. Although Heath and Rhyno just got the titles, I feel like they don’t fit it. Ya, they needed it to finish Heath’s storyline, but they haven’t done much since they got them. You can argue that The Usos have been highlighted in the division, especially since their rework.

Dolph Ziggler’s Job

The Miz vs Dolph Ziggler

Prediction: The Miz

It feels like Dolph is running out of steam at this moment. I feel that he’s been randomly inserting himself into feuds that didn’t make sense. I think that The Miz will win this one, leading to some kind of jobless Ziggler story.

Randy Orton vs Bray Wyatt

Prediction: Randy Orton

This feud still feels a little random. We have yet to see much, if any action between the two outside of all of the video packages that have been played in place of any in-ring work. To make up for that random move to pull Randy from his match at the last PPV, he’ll make a comeback with a victory this time around.

WWE World Championship

AJ Styles vs John Cena vs Dean Ambrose

Prediction: John Cena

This one was a toughy to choose. Any of the three warrant their own reasons to win the title. It is early for AJ to lose the title, but I think if John wins, it could open up a lot of different storylines. If he doesn’t win, all of this build up in and out of ring would not be as meaningful.
