The show takes place on Saturday evening in Indianapolis, Indiana, at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse. This will be the first premium live event streamed on the new ESPN Unlimited service in the United States. As usual, it will be available on Netflix for international viewers. I have to say that while this show certainly packs star power, the builds across the board have been pretty flat. And in an effort to counter AEW\u2019s show, they made a decision on a match that I\u2019m not a fan of. More on that later. Let\u2019s run down the card!<\/p>\n<p><b>John Cena vs. Brock Lesnar for the final time.\u00a0<\/b>Two things grind my gears about this match. First, there\u2019s been practically no build. We know that Cena and Lesnar are on limited appearance deals. Aside from a few promos, there\u2019s been no interaction aside from Lesnar\u2019s attacks on Cena. The additional appearances by Lesnar featured a comedy segment with R-Truth and an attack on Corey Graves. This has taken the whole &#8220;final time&#8221; moniker down a notch and doesn\u2019t feel as big a deal.<\/p>\n<p>Second, WWE announced on Thursday that this match will open the show. I\u2019m not a fan of this at all. This is the match on all the posters and has the biggest appeal. This is the match that needs to go on last. But in their never-ending quest to try to counterprogram against AEW, they seemingly downplay the grandeur of this match by putting it during a time when AEW will likely be running their main event, which, in theory, encourages people to switch over. The worst part is that this tactic won\u2019t work because if you\u2019ve spent $40-50 for All Out, you\u2019re not switching over until the show has concluded. And even if you did, AEW already has your pay-per-view money.<\/p>\n<p>As for the match, Cena has put on a few good performances since switching back to babyfaces. I\u2019m not sure if Lesnar can still go, but this should be fine and have a happy ending.<\/p>\n<p><i>Don Predicts: John Cena defeats Brock Lesnar.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>Cody Rhodes vs. Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship.\u00a0<\/b>I feel like this match will be good, but it could have been better with a stronger build. Rhodes took some time off to welcome his second child (congratulations to the Rhodes family!) As such, I would have considered holding this match off for a month or two to give Rhodes and McIntyre time to really tell this story through promos in the ring. McIntyre, in particular, excels on the mic and I think the build has been a bit rushed to the point it\u2019s taken away from the potential of what this match could have been.<\/p>\n<p><i>Don Predicts: Cody Rhodes retains the WWE Championship.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>Iyo Sky vs. Stephanie Vaquer for the vacant Women\u2019s World Championship.\u00a0<\/b>This is another case where a decent build was lacking, mainly due to Vaquer\u2019s absence. That said, it could be the match of the night. I think the stage is set for Asuka to cost Sky the match, either by accident or not, which furthers their story. Vaquer is a fine choice to hold the title, and there are some decent matchups for her on the horizon.<\/p>\n<p><i>Don Predicts: Stephanie Vaquer wins the vacant Women\u2019s World Championship.<\/i><\/p><div id=\"prowr-217418665\" class=\"prowr-content-4 prowr-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: prowrestling_incontent_2 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"prowrestling_incontent_2\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"prowrestling_incontent_2\", slotId: \"prowrestling_incontent_2\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><b>World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins and Women\u2019s Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch vs. CM Punk and AJ Lee in a mixed tag match.\u00a0<\/b>This match has had the best build. AJ Lee\u2019s return has been over with the crowds, and Lynch\u2019s heel work has been excellent. It adds a nice layer to the Punk-Rollins feud, which needed some new blood. Whichever heel takes the pin sets up a title match down the road for the person who pins either champion.<\/p>\n<p><i>Don Predicts: CM Punk and AJ Lee defeat Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso vs. Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.\u00a0<\/b>This build had been OK, but it\u2019s more about Jey Uso and his beef with LA Knight than it is about the Usos reuniting against The Vision. The match should be fine, and we\u2019ll likely see Knight cost the Usos the match. I\u2019m not sure how I feel about that program because I\u2019m not sure who I am supposed to root for. Breakker and Reed should go over strong and not win based on outside interference, but let\u2019s see how it plays out.<\/p>\n<p><i>Don Predicts: Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed defeat Jimmy Uso and
