My predictions for Extreme Rules 2015

Rusev vs. John Cena (c)
in a Russian Chain Match for the WWE United States Championship

Rusev has finally decided to cash in his rematch clause...with force. Lana has provided the stipulation: John Cena and Rusev are tied to each other with a long, metal chain...and that thing can be used as a devastating weapon. In order to win, one of these competitors much touch all four corners of the ring consecutively. Who will rise above: Cena...or Russia?

My prediction: Cena will probably retain.

Bad News Barrett vs. Daniel Bryan (c)
for the WWE Intercontinental Championship

About a month after losing the WWE Intercontinental Championship to Daniel Bryan, Barrett wants his rematch. We haven't heard much from Bryan or Barrett, strangely, and rumors are rampant outside of WWE programming that Daniel Bryan may or may not be injured. How is this going to play out?

My prediction: Bad News Barrett is becoming a six-time Intercontinental Champion at Extreme Rules.

Randy Orton vs. Seth Rollins (c)
in a Steel Cage Match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship

As per Seth Rollins' stipulation of banning the RKO, if Randy Orton performs the RKO, he will be disqualified.

Kane is designated the Guardian of the Gate, and controls who gets in or out.

On the April 13th Raw, both Orton and Rollins had a chance to name a stipulation for their match. All they had to do was win their respective matches. Orton beat both Tyson Kidd and Cesaro (no thanks to Kane, who restarted it from a singles match when Kidd interfered), and Seth Rollins forced Kane to lie down for him when he didn't want to face Dolph Ziggler. At the end of the show, both men leveled the playing field with their stips: Seth Rollins banned the RKO for the match to take away Orton's most devastating weapon, and Randy Orton surrounded the ring with a steel cage so that J&J Security or the rest of The Authority couldn't intervene. To top it all off, Triple H rewards Kane for his loyalty to The Authority - and for putting up with Rollins acting like a spoiled brat even after being made into a champion - by making him "Guardian of the Gate," giving him control of who gets in or out. How is this going to end?

My prediction: Rollins will retain. I'm somewhat expecting Orton to slip up when he has the thing won and accidentally use the RKO...and on someone other than Rollins. Either that, or Kane screws Orton and helps Rollins again.

Naomi vs. Nikki Bella (c)
for the WWE Divas Championship

Paige became the new #1 contender after the recent retirement of AJ Lee and the elimination of Naomi (who was really ticked afterwards). But just when Paige was etting another shot at Nikki Bella's Divas title...almost. Naomi has finally had enough, and she's injured Paige after getting sick and tired of waiting for a shot at being the champ, especially after beating Nikki in two non-title matches, and now she's taken her place in the title match. With a new attitude and an aggressive streak, will Naomi get her wish, or will Nikki retain?

My prediction: Naomi's going to win this somehow.

Sheamus vs. Dolph Ziggler
in a Kiss My Arse Match

Sheamus is back...and he's apparently tired of guys shorter than he is being the big dogs. He's already taken his anger out on Daniel Bryan, and now he's going after Ziggler next. But Ziggler has proven himself as someone who is not to be underestimated, and he's saved both Bryan and Neville from a beating from The Great White. Now they square off at Extreme Rules...and the loser has to kiss the other guy's ass.

My prediction: Sheamus is probably going to win this.

Roman Reigns vs. Big Show
in a Last Man Standing Match

Roman Reigns has had enough of Big Show getting in his business...but Big Show is still a deadly giant who wants to put Roman down...and Roman can't be put down easily. Now one of these two men have a chance to do that for ten seconds in a Last Man Standing match. Can Roman make Show eat his own words? Or will Big Show make good on his promise?

My prediction: Roman Reigns will probably win this one.

The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Big E)
vs. Tyson Kidd and Cesaro (c)
for the WWE Tag Team Championships

Tyson Kidd and Cesaro are defending the titles again, this time against the much-unliked New Day.

My prediction: Kidd and Cesaro will retain.

Dean Ambrose vs. Luke Harper
in a Chicago Street Fight

Dean Ambrose hopes to get revenge on Luke Harper for putting him through a steel ladder at WrestleMania 31 and costing him the Intercontinental Championship. This time, anything goes...

My prediction: Dean Ambrose will win this one.
