(TGBH) What’s the happs on the crapps yall? Welcome to our first ever live bWo RUNNING PREDICTIONS BLOG! What? You didnt think we weren't gonna do a predictions blog for this once in a lifetime tournament? I mean cmon, THE LAST TIME IS NOW!! With this being Cena’s Farewell Tour, this tournament will be remembered for the ages as superstars duke it out for the opportunity to be John Cena’s final opponent.


(PCM)They say one in a lifetime, maybe once in a generation. John Cena is a once in history. No one has gotten to the heights of everything like he has. Like him or hate him, he changed the game in a way no one ever did. And as someone who got a chance to meet him, I can say he is as much of a class act as he seems. Salute to the Unseen Seventeen.


(DSS) I remember watching John Cena’s first match. I missed a bunch in the middle. But I’m definitely going to remember his last match, as well. I’m interested to see who all ends up in this tournament that Gunther is going to win.

(TGBH) We’ll be posting our predictions for the first round here on this post as the tournament goes on. We’re gonna kick it off with the first two matches and add em as we go. Simple enough right? Let’s get to it yall!!


Pre-Game w/bWo:

The Last Time is Now Tournament

Round 1


Sheamus vs. Shinsuke Nakamura

RAW 11/10/2025

ree

(PCM) Now this is an opening match for a tournament of this caliber. I like the idea of matches like this, where it is hard to pick. On paper, both men need a bigger win. But who needs it more? Nakamura just came back, but Sheamus has not necessarily stumbled, but is treading water. If these first two matches are going to meet each other in the next round, we could be in store for some barnburners. I would be happy with any combination. I am picking solely of which one I have been a fan of for the longest, gimme me Sheamus!


(DSS) This one is an incredibly unpredictable match, since Shinsuke just came back and he’s been orbiting the MFT storyline. Sheamus hasn’t been doing a ton lately, so this one could go either way. I’d rather see Shinsuke move on in the tournament, so he’s my pick. 


(TGBH) Sheamus’ history with Cena makes him a favorite in this tournament. After not being able to gain the IC Heavyweight Title, Sheamus has sort of floated around waiting for something to do. Why they didn’t book a Cena vs. Sheamus one on one match during this tour is baffling, but maybe they’re saving it for Cena’s last match? Sheamus vs Nakamura is a main event match and will surely close Monday’s RAW. These two will beat the living hell out of each other, all for the glory of being Cena’s last opponent. 


PaperClip Mike’s Pick:

Sheamus via Pinfall


Darkstar Shady’s Pick:

Shinsuke Nakamura via Pinfall


The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:

Sheamus via Pinfall


Damian Priest vs. Rusev

RAW 11/10/2025

ree

(TGBH) Damian Priest is now a former World Champion, an accomplishment Rusev never reached thanks to John Cena. Rusev should have won at WrestleMania against Cena. Rusev’s current run has seen him appear weekly on television and being booked in this match against Priest allows Rusev to move on from Dom and out for something bigger. Damian Priest will be a Superstar for many years to come, and a win here solidifies his status as a main event talent. Rusev won’t back down, and Priest wont quit. Rusev will have to absolutely destroy Priest to advance. A Knock Out win will catch the crowd off guard and further push Rusev as a scary, brutal competitor to go toe to toe with.


(PCM) To me, this match on paper seems a little less predictable. Basing this on just history with Cena, Rusev has the edge. That may not be much of a factor if the rumors of Gunther being the choice come to fruition. Also, picking this solely of who I like more and who I want to see in the next round, my choice is Rusev. I have always liked Rusev. Maybe he can even come out with the tank again…and Lana.


(DSS) I just cannot get interested in Rusev regardless of what they do with him. I didn’t watch his first run, and I do not care about his current run. Give this to Damian, I don’t need any more Rusev than necessary. 


The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:

Rusev via Knock Out


PaperClip Mike’s Pick:

Rusev via Pinfall


Darkstar Shady’s Pick:

Damian Priest via Pinfall
