(TGBH) Ay yo waddup yall! How’s everybody feeling? We the bWo have gathered all 12 of you here today for another predictions blog. It almost feels like we’re getting a PLE per week and I gotta tell ya, its a little too much. But! That’s not a bad thing, that’s a good thing. Often times as of late I find myself looking for something to watch on the two or three streaming services I am subscribed to for that quarter of the year. As long as it’s varied in the sense of one WWE, one NXT, and one AAA PLE per month, I am not trippin’ one mafacken bit. Oh, I also forgot to mention we may crown our FIRST bWo Predictions Heavyweight Champion this Saturday.

(PCM) I am in the minority when it comes to the influx of PLEs. I guess that is the old school in me. Too many of these and you can’t let the stories cook in between. Also, if the same handful of people are all having matches with each other, then I can miss one show. You should want to go out of your way to watch a PLE, not skip it because you know you aren't missing anything, other than the big four.
(DSS) These PLEs really are nonstop, but that’s far from a bad thing. I’ve been locked in on watching as much as possible, and I’ve even been keeping up with AEW, and watching the TNA PPVs. No amount of wrestling is too much, especially as I’m trying to be the first at that bWo Championship with these prediction blogs!!
(TGBH) We coming like MVP’s WWE entrance music. And we coming in hard! Let’s get it to it yall!
Pre-Game with bWo: Crown Jewel 2025
Iyo Sky and Rhea Ripley vs. Asuka and Kairi Sane

(PCM) This is my pick of MOTN on paper. We have what is likely four of the best female wrestlers in the world. And there are a lot of layers to this story. Betrayal, the drive to succeed, jealousy, unlikely allies. So much intrigue with this. I could see either side winning; however, I do not want to see either side lose. Since the outset of this, Kairi and Asuka have been on top for the majority of this, so I expect Iyo and Rhea to win this.
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky via Pinfall
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
Iyo Sky and Rhea Ripley via Pinfall
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
Asuka and Kairi Sane via Submission
Tim Vicious’ Pick:
Asuka and Kairi Sane via Pinfall
Roman Reigns vs. Bronson Reed

(TGBH) Our Tribal Chief is back for the Xteenth time and the pops just get louder and louder. If it aint broke dont fix it amirite? And whilst The Big Dawg has been steering clear from championship Gold so others can get their shine on, he continues to be involved with Seth’s goon squad. Roman’s picked up plenty of Ws as he simultaneously has helped elevate Bron and Bron to the next level. V’s BNB needed the win before, now more than ever. Bronson Reed went from destroying Seth Rollins and R-Truth to stealing Roman’s shoes. A former North American Heavyweight Champion, Bronson Reed has gotten into amazing shape in the process of being featured more often. Bronson Reed is a young star in the making and may finally get his moment this weekend. Roman doesn’t need a win here. It’s almost Royal Rumble season, and you can expect Reigns to be one of the first to announce his participation in the rumble match. Give Big Bronson Reed the win here and let him carry that like a trophy for weeks.
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
Bronson Reed via Pinfall
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Bronson Reed via pinfall
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
Bronson Reed via pinfall
Tim Vicious’ Pick:
Roman Reigns via Pinfall
John Cena vs. AJ Styles

(DSS) Ah yes, the fan service matchup. Everyone wanted these two to have one last match, so the WWE decided to give it to us. With absolutely no build, Cena not showing up to work (maybe he has been there, but we can’t see him), and almost zero on-screen acknowledgement beyond “you guys wanted this, so we’ll give it to you.” I don’t know what creative is doing with Styles in what may be his final year, but his story makes zero sense. Cena is likely getting the win, but this match would have been better a few months ago against heel Cena.
(PCM) We knew we were getting this. Don’t get me wrong, I am happy. Cena and AJ have had bangers against each other for years.. Both men are some of the best of all time for a reason, and I expect nothing less from this. The ending is a foregone conclusion, however. I do not see Cena losing two in a row, since that has yet to happen in his retirement tour.
(TGBH) Ah yes, the guy who used to be the face of WWE vs the guy who used to be the face of TNA. This is a predictable match that ends with John Cena winning….lol. It’ll be a fun contest no doubt as this will appeal to the majority of the IWC. Jason vs. Tommy, Ragnar vs. Rollo, Cena vs. Styles, all the same if you ask me. Two of the all time greats will go at it one last time. AJ Styles will give Cena another W to make up for the loss to Lesnar that will go nowhere. Afterall, this is Cena’s Retirement Tour, not AJ’s.
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
John Cena via Pinfall
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
John Cena via Pinfall
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
John Cena via Pinfall
Tim Vicious’ Pick:
John Cena via Pinfall
Tiffany Stratton vs. Stephanie Vaquer

(DSS) IT’S TIFFY TIME! Y’all know how much I love Tiffany, and this year has basically cemented her as one of the superstars that will be main eventing for the foreseeable future. Stephanie Vaquer, on the other hand, has had one of the hottest starts imaginable in WWE. From double champ in NXT to Women’s World Champion on the main roster, Vaquer is already one of the best parts of the show. I want to see Stratton win and get her crowning moment with that Crown Jewel ring, but if there’s anyone to break her winning streak it’s Vaquer. Tiffy can take a loss and put Stephanie over in a massive way without losing her title.
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
Stephanie Vaquer via Pinfall
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
Tiffany Stratton via Pinfall
PaperClipMike’s Pick:
Stephanie Vaquer via Pinfall
Tim Vicious’ Pick:
Stephanie Vaquer via Pinfall
Seth Rollins vs. Cody Rhodes

(PCM) For a rivalry that has been hot since Cody has returned to WWE, right now, I feel tepid with this. Between both reigns as the WHC, Cody has been a bit underwhelming. Nothing has stood out at all during this. Even though Seth’s cash-in was awesome, we really haven’t seen much from that either. I am going to give it to Seth, though. Cody can take a pin; he NEEDS to take a pin. If not, we might start seeing ‘SUPER CODY LOL” signs. Don’t expect a clean finish. The Vision will interfere at some point. This match will continue to prove my point that the majority of champs have been underwhelming in how they have been portrayed the last 18 months or so.
(TGBH) Based on television build up for this battle of wits, fists, and an oversized belt, Rollins has everything to lose here. For the last few years Rollins has carried the “Couldn’t Beat Roman” division for years now and took multiple losses to put Cody over in his grand homecoming. Then there’s the Punk storeeline. Seth Rollins has done his part and it will payoff in Rollins finally getting a win over Cody Rhodes since his return to WWE. Perhaps with no help from The Vision, Rollins can establish himself here as the man (sit down Becky) who runs WWE. Cody isn’t gonna take losses anytime soon for his WWE Undisputed Universal Heavyweight Championship, Rhodes can take a loss here and go back to minding his own business Smackdown.
(DSS) I’m actually pretty locked in on the Seth-Cody storyline, and I’m writing this while I rewatch the main event matches from WrestleMania XL. This matchup is one literal years in the making. This is another match where I’ve got to call what needs to happen, not what I want. I want Cody Rhodes to win and get his second ring. And hell, I want Samantha Irvin to come out and announce him one more time, if I’m getting to make my dream Wi$h Li$t for tomorrow. But this ain’t a fairytale, and Seth Rollins needs this win to bring him (and the World Heavyweight Championship) to the same level as Cody Rhodes and the WWE Championship.

PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Seth Rollins via pinfall

Seth Rollins via pinfall
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
Seth Rollins via Pinfall
Tim Vicious’ Pick:
Cody Rhodes via Pinfall
