PRE-SHOW: The Miz vs Cody Rhodes - This is just a random match that WWE just throwed away in the Pre-Show. Not like every other pre-show matches are anything meaningful. The Miz has been on so many pre-shows even at WrestleMania that It's sad.
I would be really surprised If Cody Rhodes wins this because This is just a throw-away match for Miz to win and gain some momentum as I see him feuding with Barrett again. Remember folks, The Miz has a rematch clause for the Intercontinental Champion. (Well unless WWE wants us to forget)
Winner: The Miz
Chris Jericho vs Fandango - Chris Jericho has not won a pay-per-view match since Last years SummerSlam where He defeated Dolph Ziggler. Not saying that's a bad thing since Jericho is known for putting talent over. But Since Fandango got the surprising win at WrestleMania, I am expecting Jericho to win this time.
A loss won't hurt Fandango because He can attack him post-match taking this rivalry to another PPV. I believe Jericho will stay with WWE for a month or so now. So I'm expecting Jericho to win this match then Final and last match at next pay-per-view.
Winner: Chris Jericho
Strap Match: Mark Henry vs Sheamus - The build up to this match has been good. It shouldn't come as shocking though as WWE had 6 weeks. The beat down Henry gave Sheamus weeks ago was was superb. Henry needed a little momentum. Mark Henry returned around Elimination Chamber and was looked strong in that Chamber match. Then shockingly, Henry defeats Ryback at WrestleMania as well.
Henry should win this match because If He loses then It would make no sense as to why Henry defeated Ryback at WrestleMania. I would think that Mark Henry would win this match and possibly challenge John Cena at the next pay-per-view along with Ryback as triple threat. Even though You have to lose a lot of matches to earn a WWE Championship match..... Ryback!
Winner: Mark Henry
Dean Ambrose vs. Kofi Kingston for US Title - The outcome of this match should be obvious with Dean Ambrose winning thus far making Shield more dangerous. It would be pretty good to see Ambrose holding a title. But I still don't understand why WWE makes Kofi Kingston a transitional champion. I do understand You need a Heel to beat a Babyface to win the title but It's always Kofi and thats why His mid-card title reigns are a joke.
Ambrose has been given matches with likes of Undertaker, Bryan, Kane which makes me believe that He is the superstar that WWE is focusing on. There is no way I see Ambrose losing this match, Outcome looks pretty predictable but for the good I guess. Don't be surprised If this match is the match of the night. Extreme Rules PPV will be all about The Shield.
Winner: NEW United States Champion Dean Ambrose
Extreme Rules Match: Randy Orton vs Big Show - Let me remind you, Randy Orton was last the World Champion around September 2011. Orton has got wins over Antonio Cesaro for million times and Cody Rhodes few weeks ago. This feud has been extremely boring to me. Can't blame WWE either but Big Show's recent feuds are just pointless.
With Big Show getting the upper hand on Orton for last few weeks, I can't expect Randy Orton to lose. Extreme Rules takes place in St. Louis so expecting WWE to have the hometown boy win It. Let's hope If or when Randy Orton wins this match, WWE can add him into a Interesting storyline. Possibly feud with Ziggler for the World Heavyweight Champion.
Winner: Randy Orton
I Quit Match: Jack Swagger vs Alberto Del Rio - So the winner of this match becomes the #1 contender for the World Heavyweight Champion. I was Interested in the Triple Threat Ladder Match before but Now not so much. I didn't really enjoy Del Rio and Swagger's match at WrestleMania either. I wouldn't be surprised If we see that triple threat match at the next pay-per-view.
Since It's an I quit match, I believe Del Rio will win this match and will face Dolph Ziggler for the World Heavyweight Champion on Raw or a PPV. Also expecting this to be last time seeing Swagger in the World Title scene.
Tag Team Tornado Match: Team Hell No vs The Shield - Team Hell No has held the Tag Team Titles since September 2012. It's crazy that How long It has been, and they have been very entertaining as a tag team. I was expecting Ambrose and Rollins to win the Tag Team Champions Instead of Reigns and Rollins but I guess Ambrose as US Title fits well. The match will be really entertaining. I love Tornado Tag matches so Hope this is really good.
As I said, Extreme Rules will be all about The Shield. People are expecting Kane or Bryan to turn on each other but I don't expect that to happen at all. I'm expecting Daniel Bryan to take the pin from either one. Regardless of what happens, Rollins and Reigns will become the Tag Team Champions and end Kane and Bryan's entertaining reign.
Winner: New Tag Team Champions Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns
Steel Cage Match: Brock Lesnar vs Triple H - This match can be very entertaining and way better than their bouts at SS '12 and WM just because It's a Steel Cage Match. Lesnar ever since returning has won just one match and lost two. If He loses another one then His record would be 1-3 which is not what a Beast should be. WWE would be making a huge mistake if they have Lesnar lose to Triple H.... again! Triple H doesn't really have to lose clean in this match, Lesnar can just escape from the cage in some sort of way. I do wonder if we will see a New Paul Heyman guy help Lesnar win as WWE.com have been hinting for few days.
Brock Lesnar needs to win this match or He can't be taken seriously. Brock Lesnar has already lost to John Cena once and Triple H. He can't lose another match, that will be his 3rd lose in one year. Lesnar will wrestle more matches in the future than HHH will, so have him beat HHH and put a end to this feud. Lesnar can feud with John Cena for the WWE Champion in the Summer.
Winner: Brock Lesnar
Last Man Standing Match: Ryback vs John Cena - The build up to this match has been pretty great because Unlike John Cena's WrestleMania opponent, Both men were here each week to build the match. So that has been the good part about that match. The thing that makes me confuse is How does WWE give Ryback a Title Shot when He lost CLEAN to Mark Henry at WrestleMania. Shouldn't Mark Henry be challening Cena for the WWE Title?
John Cena has never lost at Extreme Rules, Where He is 4-0. He has beat the likes of Umaga, Batista in Last Man Standing matches. I don't even know Why WWE has The Shield part of this rivalry unless They will play a role in this match This Sunday.
John Cena just won the WWE Champion from The Rock and got his Redemption. I think It would be pretty shocking If he lost It right at the next PPV. Even Ryback needs this win to build his heel character but I think WWE made a huge mistake by having Ryback turn heel. I'm expecting The Shield to Interfere in this match thus far causing a Draw which protects Ryback in defeat. Despite what happens, By the end of Extreme Rules, John Cena will still be your WWE Champion.
Winner: John Cena
The Extreme Rules PPV match card is good. If every match is given good time then It wouldn't be bad. Extreme Rules will be about The Shield as they will be Tag Team Champs and Ambrose as United States Champion. Last years Extreme Rules PPV was pretty epic When we saw Lesnar/Cena and Punk/Jericho. This years probably won't be better than last years but It wouldn't be terrible. This is my predictions for the event.
