Over The Limit Predictions

I want to start by saying that I have been gone for a while. I recently just moved back home and have not had time to work on this blog. I also would like to say that this summer I will not have a chance to watch RAW or any WWE programming because I work at a summer camp for 24 hours a day, 6 days a week. I will try to post on Saturdays. Hopefully I will have Pay Per View predictions. They will not be as informed as they could be because I will only know what is happening from reading results from www.lordsofpain.net. Now, without further adieu, the Over The Limit Predictions.

Pre-Show: Zack Ryder vs. Kane

 

So, five months after these two first got in each other's way and they are finally meeting in a PPV match. Ryder should not have too much to worry about, he did heal from a broken vertebrae in record time. 

Why Kane should win: Kane's debut of his new persona has been lackluster since his return in January. A win here should tell us that the WWE still has something planned for the Devil's Favorite Demon.

Why Zack Ryder Should win: He has not been booked correctly since he lost the United States Championship prematurely to Jack Swagger. Also, none of his feuds have really gone anywhere. They ended the Eve feud quickly and they did nothing with a possible feud against John Cena. 

Who I think will win: I am going to go with Kane here. They have been trying to book him strongly since he came back and I think a win over Zack Ryder here will help him. I just hope the match lasts longer than 5 minutes. 

Diva's Championship: Layla (c) vs. Beth Phoenix

Why Layla should win: Layla just won the Diva's championship and I do not think they would take it off of her that quickly. The rumor is that eventually Kharma will take the title from her and this will lead to a Kharma and Beth Phoenix feud. Layla could win to eventually pass the strap onto Kharma.

Why Beth Phoenix should win: Beth lost her championship to Nikki Bella on April 23. She is out for vengeance and Layla better watch out. Beth Phoenix wants to regain her position at the top of the diva totem pole. The only thing in her way, is Layla. 

Who I think will win: I believe the rumor about Kharma is true. Therefore I will say that Layla retains her championship. 

Tag Team Championship: R-Truth and Kofi Kingston (c) vs. Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger

 Why R-Truth and Kofi Kingston should win:  They just won the tag titles, so I think it is not a good idea to switch champions so quickly. They can also do so much more for the division than Epico and Primo were doing. I believe that Edge better watch out. Kofi may beat his record for most tag team championships before he retires. 

Why Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger should win: Both of them have not been booked very well recently. They are both former World Champions, but neither can get a break. I think that a win here could add some credibility. A tag team championship is a lot better than being Brodus Clay's rag doll. 

Who I think will win: Since R-Truth and Kofi Kingston just won the tag titles recently I will pick them to win this one. 

John Cena vs. John Laurinaitis

Why John Cena should win: John Cena is just coming off a loss to the Rock and is being told that he is not legitimate enough for the WWE. After Laryngitis attacked him and tried to injure his arm, Cena has a lot to prove. It would be embarrassing for him to lose to the General Manager of both Monday Night RAW and Friday Night Smackdown. 

Why John Laurinaitis should win: On RAW this week it was announced that if he lost, he would no longer be the general manager. After all of the backlash he has gotten, he could really use the win to show that he means business. Just ask the Big Show.

Who I think will win: I do not believe JL is going anywhere. They are just starting to make his character even more interesting. If they took him off television, then that would make the Wrestlemania match mean nothing. That is why I am choosing him to win. 

World Heavyweight Championship: Sheamus (c) vs. Alberto Del Rio vs. Chris Jericho vs. Randy Orton

Why Sheamus should win: Sheamus' championship reign has not been that great. He needs a big win here to add some credibility. If he wins and pins either Randy Orton or Chris Jericho, that would be huge. Sadly, if he wins I think that Alberto Del Rio will take the pin.

Why Alberto Del Rio should win: He shouldn't. I have never been a fan of ADR, and I do not think he has any reason to win here. He just came off an injury and I think that he should have waited for a title match.

Why Chris Jericho should win: He is just coming off of losing two straight Pay Per View matches to CM Punk. Ever since his return in January, he has not gotten the championship gold that he is looking for. 

Why Randy Orton should win: Orton has not been in the World Title picture since losing the belt to Mark Henry in September last year. He will be looking to add his tenth World Title to his resume. 

Who I think will win: The rumor is that Sheamus is scheduled for a lengthy title run. I think that he will retain here by pinning Alberto Del Rio. 

WWE Championship: CM Punk (c) vs. Daniel Bryan

Why CM Punk should win: This is a match to prove who is more straight-edge. Now, Bryan may not be completely straight-edge, but bot competitors are vegan. Punk has just come off of a hard-fought feud with Chris Jericho and a loss to Daniel Bryan would not look good.

Why Daniel Bryan should win: Daniel Bryan is still upset about his 18 second loss to Sheamus at Wrestlemania. A win over CM Punk would do wonders here for his credibility. 

Who I think will win: I am going to say that CM Punk will win. I do not believe that there is any reason for Daniel Bryan to win here because he just lost his own World Championship not too long ago.
