Here is Jim Ross predictions, a bit contrary to yours
ohn Cena retains the WWE Title with a “vintage” victory as I can see the competitive Triple H and HBK imploding long enough for Cena to escape with his title.
There’s no “Peaceful, Easy Feeling” when it comes to The Undertaker defending his World Title against Jericho and Show. I could see the resourceful and opportunistic Jericho slipping out the back door with the World Title in tow Sunday night in D.C. That’s akin to sneaking into the smoker room at J.R.’s Family BBQ in Norman and leaving with a rack or ribs without laying down any cash. Not a good deal.
Angry Dave … as in Batista … seems too big and too strong for even the amazing Rey Mysterio to overcome in a contest wrought with personal emotions that will take place in the large bully’s hometown. A Batista win Sunday is where I’m hanging my black hat.
Elimination tags are so unpredictable and largely depend on what team can co-exist and who gets a break here and there.
The Miz will no doubt be better leading his team that he was on the Food Network’s “Dinner Impossible,” although both Miz and Santino Marella were show stealers with Chef Robert Irvine last week. Miz is leading a crew that consists of a band of egocentric, talented, young, up and comers that include Drew McIntyre, Jack Swagger, Sheamus, and Dolph Ziggler against Intercontinental Champ John Morrison’s squad. Both teams are loaded with talent but I think Miz’s guys are on more of a roll and that they win at Survivor Series.
Kofi Kingston stole the show Monday night on Raw from Madison Square Garden when he brawled with Randy Orton all over The World’s Most Famous Arena. Kingston is smiling less and fighting more these days and this self-proclaimed “Baron of BBQ” likes what he sees. If Kingston can lead his soulful team with the same passion that we saw on Monday night, there is no way Mr. RKO and his men can win. Kingston is “this close” to taking his game to the Promised Land and a big win Sunday on PPV might do the trick.
It’s the “friendly” Divas versus the “mean-spirited” Divas” in another 5-on-5 elimination tag on Sunday that is a Survivor Series tradition. Mickie James and Michelle McCool, who likely won’t be exchanging holiday greetings this year, leads their respective teams. Beth Phoenix may be the difference maker in this match. King has always said that size matters and The Glamazon is the biggest, strongest lady in the contest. So, for my pal and former broadcast partner who is nursing a sore jaw thanks to Sheamus, I will give the McCool team the slight nod. The King always was a sucker for the “bad girls.”
