Drew McIntyre vs. Seth Rollins, WWE Championship Match: I like the choice of Rollins as Drew's first title feud. McIntyre wins, perhaps in a way that keeps the feud going.
Braun Strowman vs. Bray Wyatt, Universal Championship Match: Given that Braun was a last-minute replacement for Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania and prior to that, he was on the losing end of an IC Title feud, there's really no reason to think he's a title-holder for the long-term. Wyatt gets the belt back after having been rehabbed somewhat with his Mania win, such as it was, over John Cena.
Asuka vs. Shayna Baszler vs. Nia Jax vs. Dana Brooke vs. Carmella vs. Lacey Evans, Women's Money in the Bank Ladder Match: Jax and Baszler seem to be the top choices, but Evans is a dark-horse for me. Nevertheless, I'll go with Baszler winning.
Daniel Bryan vs. Rey Mysterio vs. Aleister Black vs. King Corbin vs. Otis vs. A.J. Styles, Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match: I like Styles to win here to redeem himself after literally getting buried at Wrestlemania.
Bayley vs. Tamina, Smackdown Women's Championship Match: This feels like WWE getting what they can out of Tamina before she ends up on the injured list again. Bayley wins.
The New Day vs. The Miz & John Morrison vs. The Forgotten Sons vs. Lucha House Party, Fatal Four-Way Match for the Smackdown Tag Team Championships: All of a sudden, Smackdown has a pretty decent tag team division. New Day wins and retains.
R-Truth vs. MVP: Uh, MVP I guess?

Braun wins against Bray. Now when the Fiend match comes, it'll be different.
I'm going against the grain and going with Asuka. Bonus: Nia Jax powerbombs Rey Mysterio threw a wall or something since both matches are happening at the same time.
AJ. The MITB chase really only works with a heel, and with him and Corbin being the only two of those in the match, I think the resurrected AJ wins.
Bayley. I have enjoyed Tamina showing personality in her recent videos on the socials though. They need to get more of that across on the actual shows.
McIntyre Braun - I, too, think that this feud will continue Shayna - they seem hell-bent on making this feud as convoluted as possible Rey - My dark horse pick Bayley New Day
1) McIntyre/Rollins (WWE Championship Match) - McIntyre by Claymore, even though Murphy will interfere but get dropped down.
2) Strowman/Wyatt (Universal Championship Match) - Since it looks like we will get the Mr. Rogers version of Wyatt, Strowman destroys Wyatt. Strowman retains with powerslam. Will get Fiend next.
3) Bayley/Tamina (Smackdown Women's Championship Match) - Tamina by DQ due to Sashaference.
4) New Day/Forgotten Sons/Miz and Morrison/Lucha House Party (Four Way for the Smackdown Tag Team Championship Match) - New Day retains via Big Ending.
Just added... 5) R-Truth/MVP - R-Truth with a roll-up. I guess there's so few wrestlers going to Orlando, that MVP has a match on a PPV in 2020.
A) Hardy/Cesaro (Kickoff Match) - Hardy with the Swanton Bomb.
Matches going on at the same time: 6a) Bryan/Mysterio/Black/Corbin/Otis/Styles (Men's Money in the Bank Match) - Will go with Black, as his character could go in either direction when he cashes in, whether it is the honorable way and set up a title match, or the heelish way and win the title over a knocked out champion.
6b) Asuka/Baszler/Jax/Brooke/Carmella/Evans (Women's Money in the Bank Match) - Will go with Baszler to prepare for a match with Lynch.
Things that could end up happening in the matches...
a) There will be a crossover, where a female attacks a male.
b) Someone is going to slide on the long table in the meeting room.
c) Mysterio takes the biggest fall of the match, whether it is off a ladder, or does the Giant/Big Show drop off the building, and the comes back like nothing happened.
d) A tree on top of the building will be used as a weapon.
I hope they have this at the end at one time, instead of starting it at the beginning, and then intersperse it in between the other matches, making it look like they fought for the entire three hours.
Drew McIntyre vs. Seth Rollins, WWE Championship Match: Drew, surely?

According to wwe.com, Regal and Tajiri will be battling the Heart Throbs for the titles on July 2nd in Honolulu (perhaps more interestingly, Don Muraco is also scheduled to appear on the event)
