On paper, it\u2019s a decent lineup and while WWE has done a decent job with storyline builds, the outcomes seem predictable for the most part. Of course, as we know, there\u2019s always room for surprises. In any case, let\u2019s run down the card!<\/p>\n<div><b>Cody Rhodes vs. Solo Sikoa in a Bloodline Rules match for the WWE Championship: <\/b>As hard as they\u2019ve tried to turn Solo into a credible threat to win the title, it just hasn\u2019t worked. I\u2019ve enjoyed the creating of the new Bloodline and Solo plays the leadership role well. While his promos are good (not great), he\u2019s been sorely damaged from all the losses he\u2019s taken after his showcase win over John Cena at Crown Jewel in November. Cody gets a lot of credit for trying to put him over \u2013 it just hasn\u2019t gotten there for me. To add to this, there\u2019s a good possibility that Roman Reigns returns at some point this weekend. If he doesn\u2019t return on Smackdown, this will likely impact the crowd\u2019s involvement in this match as they\u2019ll likely be less enthusiastic until we get near the end of the match \u2013 looking up the aisle for Roman to emerge. In any case, there\u2019s no reason to expect a title change here.<\/div>\n<div><i>\u00a0<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Don Predicts: Cody Rhodes retains the WWE Championship.<\/i><\/div>\n<div><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n<div><b>Damian Priest vs. Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship: <\/b>This is another case where WWE tried to get someone over without really hitting the mark. They tried to establish Priest&#8217;s background as a way to connect him to the audience. And to his credit, Gunther has tried to put heat on himself by coming off as arrogant. The match will be good, but I think is Gunther\u2019s night to win the title. I don\u2019t think we\u2019ll see The Judgment Day play a role in the finish, but the official breakup of the group is not far away.<\/div>\n<div><i>\u00a0<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Don Predicts: Gunther wins the World Heavyweight Championship.<\/i><\/div>\n<div><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n<div><b>Liv Morgan vs. Rhea Ripley for the Women\u2019s World Championship:<\/b>\u00a0I would have liked it better if WWE didn\u2019t revert to the standard trope of having the babyface look clueless and not see what everyone else sees. Of course, there could be a swerve, but it\u2019s highly likely that Dominik Mysterio will cost Rhea the match and align with Liv. I was hoping that this would have been established before the match without Rhea having to look na\u00efve before being betrayed. That said, Rhea in chase mode should be fun and there should be a nice build to when she finally gets her hands on Dom.<\/div>\n<div><i>\u00a0<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Don Predicts: Liv Morgan retains the Women\u2019s World Championship.<\/i><\/div>\n<div><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n<div><b>Bayley vs. Nia Jax for the WWE Women\u2019s Championship: <\/b>With Jax being Queen of the Ring and Tiffany Stratton teasing a Money in the Bank cash-in, this match should be more interesting. Unfortunately, Bayley has been cooled off since her great run in 2020 and 2021, resulting in a flat title reign. Assuming Jax wins the title, the interaction with Stratton moving forward should be fun.<\/div>\n<div><i>\u00a0<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Don Predicts: Nia Jax wins the WWE Women\u2019s Championship.<\/i><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b>CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre with Seth Rollins as special referee.<\/b> Drew and Punk have done an excellent job of building this match since January. There\u2019s been some mixed opinions about Seth\u2019s involvement and how it impacts the build. I actually don\u2019t have an issue with it as I know it\u2019s the first match in what will likely be a series, while building to the showdown between Seth and Punk, likely at WrestleMania. We\u2019ll likely see Seth cost Punk as payback for Punk\u2019s involvement in Seth\u2019s title match with Damian Priest last month.<\/div>\n<div><i>\u00a0<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Don Predicts: Drew McIntyre defeats CM Punk with Seth Rollins involvement.<\/i><\/div>\n<div><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n<div><b>Logan Paul vs. LA Knight for the U.S. Championship: <\/b>Logan Paul has had a fine run as U.S. Champion, but Smackdown would benefit from a full-time champion. And the LA Knight fans have been waiting for the big win that they\u2019re likely finally going to get, despite Paul appearing to get the better of Knight in verbal exchanges.<\/div>\n<div><i>\u00a0<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Don Predicts: LA Knight wins the U.S. Championship.<\/i><\/div>\n<div><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n<div><b>Sami Zayn vs. Bron Breakker for the Intercontinental Championship: <\/b>I was surprised that Zayn won clean when the two met last. Breakker is likely being groomed for the main event picture so it\u2019s interesting that they started him out with a loss. I think the outcome will be different this time with Breakker winning his first main roster title while Zayn likely transitions back into the Bloodline storyline.<\/div>\n<div><i>\u00a0<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Don Predicts: Bron Breakker wins the Intercontinental Championship.<\/i><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"yj6qo\"><\/div>\n<div
