Taboo Tuesday Predictions
Because OO isn't running a team-coverage set of predictions for tomorrow's PPV, thought I'd throw in my picks here:
(Quick note: I don't honestly believe that they'll book this on the fly, so between telling the fans what they want to vote for, and not actually counting the votes, I'm working under the assumption the entire PPV is already booked.)
- Christy over Carmella.
Reasoning: They just paid her $250,000. They better damn well give her the full-blown push.
- Stacy wins Diva Battle Royal.
Reasoning: All of this mini-push is recent weeks would be for naught unless she could "surprise" Trish, Molly, etc. in a match like this which doesn't require a pinfall.
- Eric Bischoff over Eugene, with the haircut stip in effect.
Reasoning: Nick Dinsmore already had close-cropped hair, plus losing a haircut match builds sympathy on the Eugene character, which they could certainly use right about now. I don't see Bischoff having a perfectly good hairpiece shorn for the sake of a storyline.
- Edge and Chris Benoit reclaim tag team titles over La Resistance.
Reasoning: I'm assuming HBK is in the main event. Giving Edge/Benoit the titles could come in handy if the rest of my scenario plays out...
- Kane over Gene Snitsky.
Reasoning: Time to squash the babykiller. Nuff said.
- Batista over Chris Jericho to win I-C title.
Reasoning; I mean, who else are they going to put in there? Tyson Tomko? Coach? Tajiri? Palumbo? At least this makes for an interesting match; and I think they can use the element of surprise to save face for Y2J later on.
- Randy Orton over Ric Flair (would be cool if they choose a cage)
Reasoning: Well, duh.
- Triple H over Shawn Michaels
Reasoning: Edge interferes, costs HBK the match. Afterwards, he joins Evolution, or perhaps... Edgevolution!!! Then he can carry on a storyline with Benoit (tag team partners who are on opposite sides) for the next little while, setting up Survivor Series as:
HHH, Flair, Batista, Edge Vs. Michaels, Benoit, Orton, Jericho
Shoulkd be a decent show, if nothing else.
