Dean Ambrose vs. Dolph Ziggler, WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match: Ambrose gets the victory and retains.
Seth Rollins vs. Finn Balor, WWE Universal Championship Match: I'm gonna go Balor here to continue his initial monster push.
Brock Lesnar vs. Randy Orton: I'm thinking something fishy goes on. Orton should win because he's full-time and it's needed for depth sake on Smackdown. Let's go Orton via DQ.
John Cena vs. A.J. Styles: Cena wins, Styles maybe goes into a feud with Ambrose for the title.
Sasha Banks vs. Charlotte, WWE Women's Championship Match: Banks wins and retains.
Rusev vs. Roman Reigns, United States Championship Match: Reigns wins the title. Of course, I wrote that before he cleanly beat Rusev on Raw. I'll stick with my original prediction, however.
The Miz vs. Apollo Crews, Intercontinental Championship Match: Miz wins and retains.
New Day vs. Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows, WWE Tag Team Championship Match: The Club wins the titles, ending New Day's long reign.
Jeri-KO vs. Enzo & Big Cass: The babyfaces win when the heels fail to get along.
Carmella, Becky Lynch, & Naomi vs. Natalya & Alexa Bliss: Were it not for the brand split, I'd guess Nia Jax to replace Eva Marie. They could use Asuka for a one-off if they wanted to continue her heel tendency, or even have her turn on her heel partners during/after the match. I'm going to guess the babyface team wins.

Ambrose Balor (it's an outside choice, but I really feel they've built him up too much at this point to have him lose here) Brock Cena New Day Crews Reigns Banks Sheamus (although, shouldn't Cesaro be up 2 already?) Jeri-KO
Dean Ambrose vs. Dolph Ziggler, WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match: Ambrose. Might be the first match of the show.
Seth Rollins vs. Finn Balor, WWE Universal Championship Match: Rollins. If this was the last match it would be Balor, but it won't be...
Brock Lesnar vs. Randy Orton: Lesnar wins the main event of the show.
John Cena vs. A.J. Styles: Cena. The ending of SD points to AJ getting revenge, but we know how this story typically goes.
Sasha Banks vs. Charlotte, WWE Women's Championship Match: Somebody that isn't Dana Brooke helps Charlotte win, leading to either a cage rematch or Bayley coming back to even the odds next month.
Rusev vs. Roman Reigns, United States Championship Match: Reigns. You will watch Reigns and you will cheer him, dammit.
The Miz vs. Apollo Crews, Intercontinental Championship Match: Miz.
New Day vs. Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows, WWE Tag Team Championship Match: The Club.
Cesaro vs. Sheamus, First Match in a Best-of-Seven Series: Sheamus wins this and the next two, Cesaro comes from behind to win the series.
Jeri-KO vs. Enzo & Big Cass: Enzo & Big Cass, Jeri-KO explodes.
Ladies tag: Team Becky.
Mega tag match: The bad guys sneak in a win during a moment of chaos.
1. Dean wins and retains. 2. Balor wins. The feud has been one-sided so far, but there's no way they have Balor lose as the Demon, right? Right? 3. Lesnar squashes him. 4. Styles wins. 5. Sasha wins and retains. 6. Rusev retains. 7. Crews wins the title. 8. The Club win. 9. Sheamus wins. 10. Enzo/Cass win. 11. Carmella/Naomi/Becky win.

Dean Ambrose vs. Dolph Ziggler, WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match: Ambrose.
Seth Rollins vs. Finn Balor, WWE Universal Championship Match: Rollins.
Brock Lesnar vs. Randy Orton: Lesnar.
John Cena vs. A.J. Styles: Cena. Still think Styles gets the title shot after the PPV (just like with Jericho earlier this year) w Sasha Banks vs. Charlotte, WWE Women's Championship Match: Sasha.
Rusev vs. Roman Reigns, United States Championship Match: Reigns.
The Miz vs. Apollo Crews, Intercontinental Championship Match: Crews.
New Day vs. Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows, WWE Tag Team Championship Match: The Club.
Cesaro vs. Sheamus, First Match in a Best-of-Seven Series: Sheamus.
Jeri-KO vs. Enzo & Big Cass: Jeri-KO.
Eva Marie, Natalya and Alexa Bliss vs. Carmella, Naomi and Becky Lynch: Carmella/Naomi/Lynch.
Originally posted by Tenken347 Sheamus (although, shouldn't Cesaro be up 2 already?)
According to Cagematch wrestling database Sheamus should already be up 24-17-1. That's only TV shows and PPVs too, they've already faced each other 42 times. (Kofi Kingston is the only person Cesaro has faced more times.)
Ambrose Balor as long as they don't bottle it Lesnar despite the likely F5 to RKO move which will get a massive reaction Styles in a good match so Cena still looks good as he is Cena The Club need to win or there was no point in them coming in at all Crews might as well win Rusev somehow retains, unless they are off on honeymoon? Sasha in another good match Sheamus has to win where he is 2 down even though they don't count. Cesaro can only win if he is winning 4-0. JeriKO really should win, but they love Cass. Hopefully a cheap win for the heels. Eva Marie to get the pin after acting injured through the match
OK - just saw Eva Marie is suspended. Guess they will just scrap that match. It's certainly not needed.
Edit 2!
Now just seen the extra 2 matches - surely there can't be more?!
Faces win the multiman tag - hopefully American Alpha shine here as they can easily. The heel team isn't great. Sami and Neville obviously beat the Dudleys. Guessing Ray will beat down D'Von after the match is over. Hopefully this doesn't lead to a few months worth of matches between the 2 of them.
My picks: Ambrose Balor Styles RKO $asha Banks Rusev The Miz The Club Sheamus Enzo & Cass Becky/Naomi/Carmella Zayn & Neville SD! face tag teams (American Alpha, Usos, etc.)
Ambrose Rollins Lesnar Anderson/Gallows The Miz Cena The New Day Sasha Cesaro Enzo/Cass
and The Duds and The team that doesn't have the Usos
We'll be back right after order has been restored here in the Omni Center.
That the universe was formed by a fortuitous concourse of atoms, I will no more believe than that the accidental jumbling of the alphabet would fall into a most ingenious treatise of philosophy - Swift
1) Ambrose/Ziggler (WWE World Heavyweight Championship) - Ambrose with Dirty Deeds.
