Not really fair since I know AJ and Charlotte are top notch. But Smackdown is the second banana show.
Mojo Rawley vs. Zack Ryder: Lois Schiavone makes a surprise appearance and helps Zack win. Lois must pose!
Breezango vs. The Bludgeon Brothers: Fashion Police are gonna get squashed. And it's a shame since they've had a nice little comedy run (of the little WWE TV I've seen lately.)
Charlotte vs. Natalya (Women's Championship): Think Charlotte wins. Does Carmella still have the MITB? Maybe she cashes in with help from new women and it's revealed she's the leader.
Baron Corbin vs. Bobby Roode vs. Dolph Ziggler (U.S. Championship): Roode needs to win because he's a been a nobody since coming up.
The Usos vs. The New Day vs. Rusev and Aiden English vs. Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin (Tag Team Championships): Want Rusev and English to win because RUSEV DAY but think New Day retain.
Randy Orton and Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn (Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan will be special guest referees.): This will probably go on last. Everyone thinks Bryan will be turning heel to help Owens and Zayn. Nope Shane will. And none of it will make sense.
AJ Styles vs. Jinder Mahal (WWE Championship): Jinder has been on a losing streak and just lost to HHH in India, so expect him to win the title here.

My picks.. Corbin retains pinning Ziggler Usos retain Charlotte retains, but Carmella cashes in Lil' War Machine murders my boys Breezango AJ retains (hopefully) Mojo over Broski (though I could see a no contest to keep it going) Sami/KO win. Everyone thinks Shane or Bryan turn, but I'll go with Orton turning
I care about the main tag match & nothing else. Not sure I'll watch much tonight. I'm a SD fan, but this card sucks.

Roode had better win. No reason for him not to.

I really think the only reason Dolph was randomly added was so Corbin can retain without pinning Roode & they can continue their feud, which just started. I just fear they'll milk this until Mania. I really don't want Corbin vs Roode at that show.
Hell, who knows, maybe Dolph is in it to have Roode pin him & Corbin has a gripe about losing the title without being pinned.

Normally you want the baby chasing, but Roode is an arrogant face. Messing with Corbin as champion, leading to an eventual heel turn, would be spectacular. So Corbin probably retains.

Dolph is definitely in there just to take the pin. Poor Dolph.

In the main event, KO and Sami will be getting the shit kicked out of them, double ref bump, Jericho returns, knocks everyone out, bloodies them all, throws Sami on top so when Bryan comes to he can count the pin and KO gets to keep his job so that Jericho can get his revenge on Owens at Mania in a tag match KO/Zayn vs Jericho/Omega after headlining the Tokyo dome in the same year, destroying Kenny and taking him under his wing as a mentee.
Seems the most likely scenario to me.

Does Sam Roberts have Benjamin Button disease? He's in his mid 30's but looks mid 60s. They need to get new people on these pre-shows with Renee. Enough with Sam & Rosenberg already.

Broski vs Mojo up now. They did a highlight video for it, at one point said Mojo attacked him 3 weeks ago then showed the same clip saying 2 weeks ago. Guess that's what happens when you get zero TV time to build a feud?

If Mojo is going heel, tone down the bright colors

It was a TV match, but Mojo wins clean via his elbow smash in the corner.
Mojo has a good look, but now that he's heel, he needs to not be so spazzy in his mannerisms. Also needs new gear. His bright yellow hype gear doesn't really fit him as a heel.
Felt like a blow off to this already, but we'll probably get it again Tuesday.

Solid old school promo.

I'll be legit hot if Roode doesn't win. Roode doesn't need to chase Charisma Sucker. Roode should already be the US Champ.

I hate wrestling sometimes. Ziggler wins the title.

It looks like Shane O Mac and Ed Hochuli shop for their ref gear at the same lady footlocker.
