I haven't watched a full Raw/Smackdown in probably 6 months now, so I based my predictions on the WWE.com synopsis' of the matches and some rudimentary Booking 101 logic. Which probably means that half of them will be wrong but whatever.

Edit - changed my Battle Royal prediction (was previously Kelly Kelly).

I assume the people who are picking Rey to win the IC title, didn't see him pick up a clean pin victory against JBL on Smackdown.

No way will he win.

I'm surprised I'm the only one who's gone for a Big Show win, of course I'll probably change it later

Tazz chucking it means JBL's reassuming his position in the commentary booth more like. That's my justification for that prediction anyway.

I noticed you'd gone for that I was tempted too, it will definitely set you apart from everyone else if he does. I'm looking for predictions that can get me points ahead of the rabble, I'm a Main Eventer afterall and £5 vouchers won't do!

JBL didn't return to the ring cause there wasn't room for him in the commentary team though.

I know, but I'm thinking that there's a pretty noticeable space on Smackdown and, given the fact that they probably don't have anyone they consider good enough right now to fill it, JBL might be the best option due to his experience in doing the job before, plus he's talked about retiring for a good while now.

We still need some bonus questions

Anyone got any decent wrasslin DVDs they'd like to swap for my "Best of CM Punk" doovde?

What I'm finding strange is that the main HOF Stone Cold hasn't been on Raw this year!! Especially someone like Steve, who is on good terms, can bounce around a little still, it just does not make that much sense, I mean advertising Steve for the HOF and teasing (even if he does not appear) a WM 25 apperance, would see a increase in the buyrate!! I can only think Steve is really busy, and that in order for his acting to be taken more seriously, he wishes to stay away from the WWE at least for a while

[Drumstick]

I'm more excited about Stone Cold's induction than anything on the card. Can't wait to hear what he has to say.
