SPEAKER_03

WrestleMania time. Wait, hear me.

SPEAKER_00

Didn't didn't see him there. WrestleMania weekend is upon us.

SPEAKER_02

We are here, haters. We are here. Who are we? We are only your latest and greatest, and hopefully your fra hopefully your favorites. Wrestling Podcast in the land. So section eight. Wrestling Podcast. I am Kills at Wills. I am Billy. And today, tonight, whenever it is you're deciding to join our wonderful little corner of the internet, we are going to give you something a little special. It is WrestleMania time, and we did we do have a video out there of going from last year's WrestleMania to this year's WrestleMania, and it dawned on us we might want to give our predictions for this year's WrestleMania. So we figured we'd go on and do that, whether you ask for it or not. It's not really for you, it's for us.

SPEAKER_00

And you're here and hell, it's you know it's gonna be like the 750-second prediction cast out there out there. But hey, for you 25 subscribers specifically, and for the rest of the haters out there who just haven't hit that button yet because they're just not sure that we're there. But we're there, we're there, we're getting there. We're gonna give you those predictions for WrestleMania 42. Here it is.

SPEAKER_02

Woo! We're just gonna jump right into it. Let's go on ahead and start with night one. Of course, WrestleMania is this weekend, is it is again in Las Vegas in a Legion Stadium. So we open up with night one. Night one is a six-man tag team match. It is the Vision, that's Logan Paul and Austin Theory. They are teaming with iShow Speed versus the Usos. That's Jimmy and Jay. And they are teaming in, they are teaming with LA Knight. Yeah. So who do I want to win? I want the good guys to win. I don't think iShow Speed should have a win at WrestleMania. That's no offense to the young man, but this is about the Wrestlers. So I I just don't I think most celebrities should lose at WrestleMania because it's WrestleMania. But that's just me. Who do I think will win? I also think it's still gonna be the good guys. It's it if this was for the championships, if this was if the belts were up for some kind of reason, I would say the vision would find a way to sneak and win. But seeing how it's not, seeing how it's just for kind of pop, I I give I say we're gonna end with some Yeatin and some yeah. So that's what I think.

SPEAKER_00

Excellent. I am going to disagree. With my head, I also want the good guys to win because I want LA Knight to have his moment. I want the Usos to win, blah, blah, blah. But with my heart of hearts and just the way things going, man, I just I just have a feeling that LA Knight is just, they're not gonna give him the win. They don't give LA Knight anything. So why would they start now? So I think it's going they're going to give, even though I don't want iShow Speed to have a win at WrestleMania, I think that's what's going to happen. Also, uh with the whole thing going down today, where Jay was on rapper Cameron's podcast. Yes. So I because you and our buddy Chava was were talking about that, uh, I hadn't seen it yet, so I finally saw the footage where I was like, okay, this seems like a legitimate beef until Jay went and grabbed Cameron, pulled up over the desk, and then punched him in the face. I'm like, okay, it's a work. So we have once again another celebrity probably entering WrestleMania for some reason. Dipset, dipset, dipset, dipset. Like you said earlier, we're wrestling fans, we want to see wrestlers. Especially at WrestleMania. So, like a few is fine, but they don't we don't need all these involved in matches, especially championship matches. We'll get that later. But so, like I said, want the good guys to win. I think the bad guys will lose.

SPEAKER_02

There you go. So, yeah, I I I think the good guys will win. So we are we are kind of split on that, but that's all right. Uh, our next match is our unsanctioned match that should be the throw em off the building match. It is the the Samoan werewolf, Jacob Fatou versus the chosen one, Drew McIntyre. Uh, who do I want to win? I want Jacob Fatou to win because I always want Jacob Fatou to win. I'm just a Jacob Fatu fan. Who do I think will win? I do think they will give it to Fatou, even if as the new news came out that Drew won't be missing as much time as people think, he will be missing sometime. So I think this is their chance to write him off for a bit, give him a break so we can go film Highlander and do the damn thing. So I think Jacob Fatu will win.

SPEAKER_00

Yep. Uh I agree with you on both counts. Uh again, we talked about this uh with our WrestleMania trend match just kind of briefly. But uh with this match, I'm just excited to see the possibilities that this match can have. Hopefully, they do as much as they can and kind of express the whole like use all of the unsanctionedness that you have in Las Vegas with the week that you're there. Like you can do stuff beforehand where you eventually it spills out into the stadium, but like you've been filming stuff all week in different places, like do it. You got time, you have money, do it. That's true. I don't know. So that's what I want to see. But I think Jake Fat 2 will pull off the win at WrestleMania.

SPEAKER_02

I didn't think about that, and if you know, and this these first two matches are the free ones, so they're on the you know, and it would so because of that, they're trying to entice people, you know, to buy the pay-per-view. That should be kind of a a slobernacker, just some crazy stuff should happen. So it should. I didn't think about the little extra like having time to just oh, say you go into a room and you almost have like a film segment, uh, you know, and then yeah, that that's it's a good idea. It's a good idea.

SPEAKER_00

It's fun. We've seen it before, they did it long time ago, so imagine what they can do now. So because that Roddy Piper Gold does match is that that's just a fun match to watch where they spliced in the OJ Chase scene too, where they kind of faked it, yeah, yeah. Yeah, because Roddy Piper was driving a white Bronco. It's like okay.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, and then like gold does pulled up in like a gold cadillac.

SPEAKER_00

Gold Cadillac.

unknown

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

That's that's a fun one. So I'm saying, like, they did that and then ended up in the arena at WrestleMania. That didn't that wasn't all live kids, obviously, but like they filmed it earlier and then they spliced it all together and they ended up with the crowd. So let's see something like that.

SPEAKER_02

We've mentioned that a couple times this week and when we're together, we should just watch that match, and that should be the match of the week, and then we can just talk about that one, bruh. That would be great.

SPEAKER_00

That that is definitely a forgotten match.

SPEAKER_02

So that brings us to our next match. It is the WWE women's tag team championship fatal four-way match. We got four teams. It is the champions, or they are the champions, the irresistible forces. It is Nia Jax Legend. It's official WrestleMania. Had to. We had to. Yeah, buddy. It it I'm not happy about it. Uh, versus Charlexa. I don't know if that's the official name, but that's the name I heard floating around. And that's Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss versus Bailey and Lyra Valkyria versus the Bella Twins question mark. I say question mark because as of recording right now, word is Nikki Bella is still walking around with a boot, and they do not know if she's medically cleared to wrestle yet, which means with a Friday night SmackDown still out there, there they could possibly have that that's floating out there, and as you know, so and that would be the reason why there is no Asuka and EO because they might be uh inserting the Kabuki Warriors. So, as of right now, then the Bella Twins are questionable, which I wrote this before then because who I want to win, I want Bailey and Lyra to win because I want Bailey to have as much success as possible, because I love Bailey. Who do I think will win? Before this news, I would have said the Bella Twins, because you don't bring Bree back to have them not have this moment. Um, but now I do not know. So that but I will say if if if things go according to plan, the Bella Twins. If not, I'd have to see who they insert. If it does happen to be the Kabuki Warriors, just thinking out loud, if it happens to be the Kabuki Warriors, then I think they give it to Charlotte and Alexa and set up uh a split with them being champions and they lose the championship because they stopped gelling. That would I think that would be the backup plan B.

SPEAKER_00

So uh see, because there's I there's a whole bunch of things kind of flying around because I also think it kind of hinders, not really hinders on the women's intercontinental match as well, because I I I think Lyra's gonna get another run of that title.

SPEAKER_02

I think so as well.

SPEAKER_00

So I I would love to see Bailey and Lyra win, especially because Bailey got thrown out of WrestleMania last year, last minute. Um and she just she never gets her win at home, like we talked about in our weekly podcast. Like she she again, she deserves to have everything. And like she is the she is women's well, not anymore a grand slam champion, but she was the first women's grand slam champion. Um the four horsewomen, man. Yeah, she won the rumble, she like she's done it all. Yep. Um, so I like I said, Bailey and Lyra would love to win, but I've been gone so I've been saying it since day one. I think even the Bell has said we would even love to be tag team champions in the women's division, but there aren't any belts. Now there are. Why else would Brie come back after all this time? We know why Nikki would. Nikki, I think, actually loves to wrestle and loves the business. I think she learned that along the way. I think Brie is more of I mean, uh great, good. I think she loves being the mom and doing the whole entrepreneurship thing. Great, do all that stuff. But I I think it's to get that one last thing that they never achieved together, and that's the women's tag team championships. Great, they deserve it. They're yeah, again, they were part of they were the part of the women's like the revolution. So uh more power to them. Love to see the bells win, but unfortunately, if she is injured, who knows?

SPEAKER_02

But there it is. All right, that brings us to our next match. That is the women's intercontinental championship. Look at that, didn't even know. Champion AJ Lee taking on the man, Becky Lynch. Um, trying to give everybody a nickname. So, yeah, AJ Lee is your favorite wrestler's favorite wrestler. Uh, who do I want to win? Honestly, I want Becky to win just because I love heel Becky with the belt. It's just it's comical. And you could tell she's having mad fun. Uh it makes me laugh. Who do I think will win? You don't you don't bring AJ Lee back with you know and not give her a WrestleMania moment. Um, the only thing that did give me a little bit of pause is when you look at the highlight clips, it is just clip after clip after clip of AJ tapping out Becky. So I would not be shocked if at WrestleMania Becky finds a way to cheat to win just to steal a moment. But I I do think they give it to AJ, and then they finally put this to rest. Like that's it's the be-all end-all. Yeah, he will move on to something else. AJ's gonna find another opponent, another, another feud, and yeah. But I would, I'm, I'm not upset if Becky wins. I'll be super happy.

SPEAKER_00

No. Uh, I agree. Like, I this match can go either way, and I'd be happy with it going either way. Uh, like, like I said, trending off the last match, I I think Lyra Valkyria deserved another run at this belt. She was she was fan, she was the first uh to have it. So I think she really she she that that's how she excelled to where she is, that feud with Becky. Correct. So now that she has a whole other year under her belt with all this experience working with now Bailey for the longest time, I think she deserves that run at the IC belt. Uh but like you said, with all the tap outs that AJ Lee's been doing, it would be great to see Becky finally get that win at Mania. So I would love to see Becky Lynch win as well because I think as great as Becky Lynch has been, all the great stuff she has done in the past, I think this is the best that she has ever been. Just the whole gimmick, all the storylines, and it's not just me saying it's not just her saying it, it's Bleach Report saying it, it's Sports Illustrated saying it, it's ESPN, it's it's secondary section eight wrestling podcasts as a wrestling podcast saying it. It's not just her. So, with that being said, I would love to see Becky Lynch slap that disarmor on AJ Lee, and maybe we'll get to see AJ Lee and Roxanne Perez in the future. That's a dream match I want to see. So there we go.

SPEAKER_02

That brings us to our next match. Um that I I didn't even put it together until I looked at it. Uh Becky Lynch. It's Becky Lynch, and then it's her husband. Back to a little back to back. So it is Seth Rollins, uh, the revolution, the the revolutionary, the vision, the visionary, the architect, Seth Rollins versus the Ring General and the career killer. Gunther.

SPEAKER_03

Who do I want to the ring general?

SPEAKER_02

Who do I want to win? I want Gunther to win because I just want to kind of have him continue this year of dominance that he's been just kind of on. Like he's dope. I think he's one of the better natural kind of wrestling heels out there. Um, you know, and he's doing his job well because he gets freaking booed out the building. Uh, you know. Well, he would if he left, but he takes it. It's great. He loves it. Who do I think will win? I think Gunther will win because I I think I've put I think I said this out on one of our recordings. If I didn't, I'll say it now. I think that the masked men will make a return. One of the masked men will be Braun Breaker. Even if it's not, I think Braun Breaker inserts himself into this match to have Seth Rollins lose. So I think Gunther's going to win.

SPEAKER_00

Excellent. I agree with you on both points. Um head and heart, say Gunther. I think it would be a waste if Gunther Gunther lost. After beating these Hall of Famers, soon-to-be Hall of Famers, AJ Styles, Cena, like Goldberg, after beating all these big guys and losing to South Rollins. I think the whole career killer would be kind of a waste. So I agree. I love C. Gunther, but this is one of those matches, again, I don't really care who wins. I know it's going to be a great match. I know I'm going to be entertained. Um, I didn't think about the masked man thing and Braun Breaker coming back. That's brilliant. Um, it's probably time uh because uh he had a hernia, so I mean it's not like I mean it's sure he needed surgery and time off, but it's not like something major will he will miss a ton of time. So he could be he'd be ready to go Saturday. So that'd be great. Love to see him back, but let's see Gunther pick up the victory.

SPEAKER_02

And some of the scuttle butt is that he's been in some in the performance center, just kind of working out some stuff. So I think he he's he's well enough to go out there, hit Seth with a s a spear, and then run off.

SPEAKER_00

Like just that like don't pick him up or anything, but yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Correct, correct. Yeah, great.

SPEAKER_00

Let's see it.

SPEAKER_02

Hell, he could he could pull off the mask and Seth could get distracted, and it could be a quick get you in a thing and then Gunther tapping.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, because he'll just stand there and yeah, shake like violently, like he does, and like shoot out some spit and just and then no, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, so I think it'd be dope. All right, that brings us to the co-main event. It's the women's world championship match. It is the champion, La Primera, Stephanie Vacare, versus the Trouble. I'm just gonna call her Trouble because that's what her music is called. Little Miss Trouble, Liv Morgan. Who do I have the name of her new video? And I saw it. Yeah, Little Miss Troubles. That's that's who she is. Uh, who do I who do I want to win? I want Stephanie Vicare to win because I think this, I think her title reign has been a little stagnant. Uh, some of it, I I know she had a little bit of the foot injury, and I know they wanted to really build this thing with her and Liv. Liv took about a month to choose an opponent. So once she did, a lot of it's been built up to work this feud. And I feel like Stephanie hasn't wrestled an awful, awful lot. And so I peep, and so I think she's kind of her momentum has kind of staled a bit. I think with a good win here at WrestleMania with a good performance, I think it'll kind of put it. I want it, I want her momentum to kind of go back up. But who do I think will win? Liv Morgan, because it's one, it's her time. Two, you you don't have her win, uh, you don't have her win Royal Rumble and not have her bring it home. This is it's it's Liv Morgan's time. And it will also help fuel the breakup of judgment day, which I think they're working towards. So I think Liv Morgan will win.

SPEAKER_00

Uh, first off, I want to say that the whole winning the Royal Rumble thing and winning WrestleMania, I don't buy it anymore. That ain't it's it's a shoe-in because look what happened to Cody Rhodes at 40. Yes, or 30 39. Yeah, he lost at 39 and he won at 40.

SPEAKER_02

Charlotte Charlotte Flair last uh not last year, yeah before.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, yeah, last year when Tiffy beat her.

SPEAKER_02

One more rumble than Tiffy beat her, yep.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, that was last year. So uh Royal Rumble winner, whatever. But I I do regardless, I want to see Liv Morgan win because again, she is one of the hottest superstars right now, not just talking looks. Um, just everybody loves to see her, especially now with her this whole unhinged thing after she got thrown in the TV, maybe a little bit more than she should have been thrown in the TV, and uh Ed's knocking. And Raw is gonna hurt snap. I want to see I just I just want to see where Liv on top is going to go, especially now that fans had a judgment day. Who knows what's gonna happen if they're gonna still be around? Maybe now it'll give like Raquel an end to go after Liv in the championship at this point for Raquel to break off on her own. Um so I want to see Liv Morgan win and take the championship. Like you said, uh Stephanie Vacare, her reign did get a little stale, which is fine. Let's just give it a full-on reset, give the belt to Liv, uh find Stephanie Vacaire, uh, somebody else, something else to do, and it'll be fine. Maybe throw her in, I don't know, another like interconnected championship belt uh run or something. Who knows? But I'd love to see Liv Morgan back on top.

SPEAKER_02

There you go. There you go. That brings us to the main event of night one. It is the undisputed WWE championship match. It is the champion, the American nightmare, Cody Words versus the Viper, the legend killer. One of my personal top five, top five all time. Randall, Kennedy, Orton, RKO, Randy Orton with Pat McAfee. We have to say that because you have to. We have to say that because Pat McAfee is coming. Who do I want now? Oh, I should preface all this by saying this. As of today, uh uh and uh a news bulletin came out that Randy Orton is injured. They don't know how injured, they don't know what is happening. Yes, it Randy Orton is hurt. So questions arise about how hurt, how that could affect what's happening.

SPEAKER_00

I made a Did he pull something, pulling jelly roll out from behind the back? Like he didn't really do much when we at SmackDown. So, I mean, unless he pulled a Mac Cain and cut his finger making a cheese sandwich or something, but uh I mean, come on, it's WrestleMania season, guys. What are we doing?

SPEAKER_02

So I'm just going to roll through and give you my predictions, even not knowing that news, just knowing that like now that that's out there, anything could happen. But this is what's out there. Who do I want to win? Randy Orton. Randy Orton's my guy. I want him to get 15. I want him to have one more than Triple H because that's just that just warms my heart to have Orton's name above trips in anything, championship related, just warms my heart. Um, yeah. Who do I think will win? Randy Orton. Because They've already put it out there and they've said uh Pat they have Pat McAfee say if Randy Orton loses, you'll never see me on WWE television again. TK won't have that, so I'd say Randy Orton's gonna win. And now we've seen pivots. Cody Rhodes is literally in the middle of a huge pivot. That's why he is champion because they took back some words. Uh but I think this is Orton's. I I hope the injury doesn't change that. If anything, maybe the match is not as athletic and not as long as we want it to be because they have to limit Orton's action. But I still hope that he comes out with number 15.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. Because once once Randy would win the belt, if he does, he won't really have to do too much in weeks following WrestleMania. Like he won't really have to wrestle because he's champion. He can do whatever he wants. Um, so this is actually probably the most controversial match of all of WrestleMania. Just because, again, with his words of wrestling has more than one royal family, blah blah blah. Pat McAfee's out there. Again, I mean we're gonna harp on this because you you say something, wrestling fans pick up on it and they won't let it go. Sorry. I still wanted Chris Jericho couldn't be seen as last opponent. So didn't happen. I still want it to happen, didn't happen. Uh so and if Pad if Randy Orton loses, Pat McAfee leaves. John Cena retired four months ago. Who's hosting WrestleMania? So I don't know. I I didn't know about the injury, so that put a damper on things. I I want Randy Orton to win. I want again, I want him to get the 15th, but I don't have the gripe about triple H as you do. So it's it's not just a number. I just I like to see guys that deserve it get it. So and this run, we've wanted Randy Horton to turn heel and do this again. Hopefully they'll just let him punt Cody Rhodes and quick match that way, and we'll finally get to see the punt we've been wanting to see for the past two years. So my vote is Randy Orton.

SPEAKER_02

I think they're gonna I think he's gonna I think he's gonna figure out a way to punt McAfee too, because he's gonna turn it. He's the viper. That brings us to night two. As much as this pains me to say, the opening match of night two is the ruler, the mountain that cannot be climbed, the bringer of war, Oba, Femi versus the Pain. As in here comes the pain, the conqueror, the beast, Brock Lesnar.

SPEAKER_00

And that's why. That's the only reason why. Because everybody knows who Brock Lesnar is, so this will get people to be like, oh, I know Brock Lesnar. So they'll want to see what Brock Lesnar is doing now. That's the only reason. It has nothing to do with Obafemi. This match is going to be fantastic. Doesn't matter what streaming service or what site or whatever channel you're gonna watch it on.

SPEAKER_02

It's gonna be a great match. Watch it on the outro.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. Yeah. Sorry to step all over you on this, but it's gonna be okay. I know you've been really upset about it being the first match and on TV. But hey, Brock Lesnar is busy man, so he says. And he just doesn't like to hang out. So a lot of times, if it's not for the championship, he just wants to be out of there. And secondly, secondly, it's because people know Brock. So I think it's going to be a like a double count out or whatever because two beasts are just gonna brawl, you can't tame them, and like nobody's going to lose. Nobody's going to win. We're going to win because it's going to be great. But I don't think there's going to be a winner or a loser. But give me all the Oba Femi and Brock Lesnar as much time as Brock will allow.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Before he has to leave.

SPEAKER_02

I've had so much time to think about this. Um, who do I want to win? Oba. Duh. Uh who do I think will win? This will make you laugh, Billy. Um I love making you laugh. This will make you laugh. I think Brock Lesnar is going to win only because I realized, thinking about it today, I told this to the young OG Triple OG. Shout out to Arturo. Brock Lesnar has been one of my main sources of WWF WWE disappointment. Uh, he beat Kurt Angle, WrestleMania 19. Kurt Angle. After landing on his head. He he beat Kofi Kingston after Kofi had won the championship. He beat Undertaker's streak. He beat Bobby Lashley. Like wow. Wow, he did.

SPEAKER_00

He did bring us all that joy. And he brought us Tuplex Diddy with John Cena. So we do have to thank you for 16 suplexes on John Cena SummerSlam. Because that was a lot of fun too. But I I see your point. There are a lot of there are a lot of things that Brock Lesnar's done that has made us made us very sad.

SPEAKER_02

So wouldn't it just make all the sense if just one more time?

SPEAKER_00

One more time. He's a different man now. He's a different beast. Like he was telling him, he's like, put your foot on me. He's like, point at this sign. Like he's I think he's pulling for Oba personally. I think he really is. Because I think he's excited to see what he's gonna do.

SPEAKER_02

I will be the I will be the first. I will be the first to tell you I've never been so happier to be wrong.

SPEAKER_00

Great. I'll be sitting right next to you when it happens. So I look forward to it.

SPEAKER_02

Let's go, Oba. It's either way, I just want to see some some some work. And it's gonna be some work. It's gonna happen. Uh next match is the Intercontinental Championship Ladder match. Oh my god, I can't wait. Against Mr. Cierro Miero, the champion, Penta against that boy Bouncy, the young OG, Javon Evans against I'll be walking through the flame, Mr. Dragon Lee against JD McDonough. I got no nickname for him. Walking Funko Pop. He's a walking bobblehead uh against Rusev Match, who said he's not interested in bringing back Rusev Day in the latest interview. And I'm like, you're full of shit.

SPEAKER_00

He said that more than once. Yeah, he said more than once it's the dumbest death that's ever happened.

SPEAKER_02

He rocked the goddamn shirt recently. I know. I know. Fuck out of here with this out of here. Against uh the the the the lastly added Rey Mysterio, uh Mr. 619 himself. Who do I want to win? I would love for Javon Evans to win. Um, I'm just a Javon Evans fan. He'd be the youngest intercontinental champion ever. It would keep his momentum going sky high, and it would prove he doesn't need New Day to be a champion, which I think they're kind of trying to hint at. Who do I think will win? Honestly, I think they're gonna have Ray Mysterio win. Only reason I think that is because if Ray is retiring sooner than later, that Ray versus Dom for the IC championship to retire Ray is super enticing. So I think Ray's gonna win.

SPEAKER_00

So that's good. That you you thought further ahead than I did. Um yeah, I I like that angle now. Um, so I I kind of agree that because I didn't really again, it's one of those matches where I think we're gonna just gonna be the winners of it's gonna be a great match. Um I would love to see Javon Evans take it. Um Dragon Lee's one of those guys where he's just gonna do great things. So um he's not really gonna win, we know that, but if he does, fantastic. Um Javon Evans will win, but yeah, I just it's gonna be great. Can't wait. I ladder matches. I I'm a sucker for ladder match, so give me all the ladder matches.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, okay. Then we have the United States Championship match. It is uh the constant underdog, Mr. Usi, Sammy Zayn versus Mr. Lemon Peppa Steppers himself, trick Williams. I'm not going to say with Lil Yachty, but little Yachty will be there in his gingerbread shirt. He's not as as involved as I feel like a Pat McAfee will be. So I can I feel comfortable just saying Sammy Zayn versus Trick Williams, but uh Yachty will be there. Well, Sammy just kicked him in the face, so who knows? Who do I want to win? Trick Williams. Duh. Who do I think will will win? Boy, I hated to say it. Well, actually, I no, uh, because I did cross something out. I think Trick Williams will win because I think Kevin Owens will make a surprise appearance and cost Sammy Zayn the championship.

SPEAKER_00

See, forgot about Kevin Owens, and I love that dude.

SPEAKER_02

Because Kevin doesn't have to take bumps to jack Sammy up or distract him, and Little Body's gonna be there. So it's yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know. I think because they're still gonna there's still a smackdown left, there's smackdown tomorrow. Yes, I don't know, but I don't think the match is finished. And I want to say that they're gonna throw in not only Carmelo Hayes, but Ilya Dragonoff as well. Yeah because I between those two and Sammy Zayn, they ran the United States championship scene all year. Because Sammy started with it, um, and then Dragonov beat him, and then Melo beat him and held it for the longest time. And they just they made that belt kind of matter again, which is very cool. Um, it's it was almost kind of like the makeshift cruiserweight belt that we've been wanting to see again, because we also got to see a lot of people that we normally wouldn't really get to see get showcased in matches. Um I I would like to see those two thrown in last minute. If not, I want to see Trick Williams take it in his first WrestleMania. Just keep going, buddy.

SPEAKER_03

Yep.

SPEAKER_00

It's time to whoop that strap that rocket on those lemon pepper steppers and just take off, brother.

SPEAKER_02

Absolutely. Uh the next match is the demon, Finn Balor versus the triple Ah uh the triple A Mecca Champion, Dominique Mistadio. Who do I want to win? I want Dom to win because I want Dom to win everything. Who do I think will win? The Demon, because you don't bring the demon back and have him lose, because then that sullies the demon character, and Finn will never do it again. So the demon's going to win.

SPEAKER_00

Well, the fact that they didn't hold it as surprise is kind of slowness on its own, but I also think Dom will pick up the win because that's what Dirty Dom does. Huh. Look at last year when he won the Intercontinental Belt, he slid in and he pinned Finn Balor to win the belt. So I I don't put anything against him, and I really they love giving Dom the push. Um they he beat John Cena at Survivor Series for the belt.

SPEAKER_02

I hope you're right, because I I I love Dirty Tom.

SPEAKER_00

So yeah, I hope you're right. Yeah, so as much as we're excited to see the demon, A, we've talked about this until we're blue in the face. They should have held the surprise. But I think I really think Dom is going to pick up the victory.

SPEAKER_02

All right. Our co-man event, it's the WWE Women's Championship match. It is the storm. She's that bitch. Jade Cargill, she comes in as a champion against the Eradicator, EOSky's best friend, Miss Rhea Bloody Ripley. Who do I want to win? I want Jade Cargill to win because I feel like it'll put a big stamp on her, solidify her as the champ. Who do I think will win? Rhea, because I think that Bianca Bel-Air will come back and get herself involved in this. And I think you don't pivot to have Rhea do this unless you aren't gonna have her win. And I think they just don't trust Jade with the belt for for reasons. You can pick a few. So I think Rhea will win, but I would love for Jade to retain.

SPEAKER_00

I think I think Jade will win. And because I think they just they kind of gave us this match just to give us this match, because there was an opening for both of them to compete against each other. I mean, Rhea's not even on SmackDown, and they they kind of keep to show like they kind of keep the shows. So um I I think Jade will win and with the Bianca Balor angle, I think that's why, and then they'll have Jade and Bianca go for the title like against each other, because that'd be a really good feud, too. And then Rhea and Eo can go back to being Ria Rio together and whatever, or Rhea can go for another belt, or she can go for the Uncontent Continental Belt too. She hasn't held that one yet before, so why not? But I think I think Jade will retain with the Bianca angle.

SPEAKER_02

So yeah, make her a grand slam. I can take that. Uh that brings us to the official Billy Manai are traditionalists, so you can have one, two, three nights. Doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_03

The last match of WrestleMania is the main event of the evening.

SPEAKER_02

It is for the World Heavyweight Championship. It is OTC, the tribal chief. Roman Reigns against the champion, the best in the world. CM Punk, who comes in as the champion in his first singles match in WrestleMania. Who do I want to win? I want Roman Reigns to win because he's my tribal chief. His aura is great. Who do I think will win? I think CM Punk gets his wrestle, he gets his ultimate WrestleMania moment because he's overdue for it. Simple as that. Simple as that. And I applaud him having that WrestleMania moment. He's overdue for it.

SPEAKER_00

Opposite. I want Punk to win. I think Roman's going to win.

SPEAKER_02

How about that?

SPEAKER_00

Because I I mean, I don't think Roman's held the world heavyweight title before.

SPEAKER_02

If if if we want to go on technicalities where he had both shows belts and then they had the uh yeah, I guess so, in a way, yes, he has. If you want to be technical and a wrestling nerd, which we kind of are, so respectable.

SPEAKER_00

But either way, he he hasn't formed he hasn't held right this this particular belt. So let's go, Roman Reigns.

SPEAKER_02

Hey, and again, you saying some stuff, boy. I hope you're right more than me. I I like your predictions more than mine. Hey, y'all. Uh hey, hey Billy, let them know how they can help us out real quick, man.
