Extreme Rules 2017 predictions

Just throwing some predictions out there...
Fatal Fiveway Samoa Joe vs Seth Rollins vs Finn Balor vs Bray Wyatt vs Roman Reigns
As of right now, the betting odds seem to be in favour for Samoa Joe with Seth Rollins coming in second place. I'm going to go ahead with picking Joe as my favourite as well because I think Joe vs Lesnar is a solid main event that will probably draw interest for Great Balls of Fire (I'll never get over it, I still can't believe somebody thought that this was a good idea).
I-C Championship/Ambrose loses title if he gets DQed Dean Ambrose vs The Miz
Betting odds indicate The Miz is the favourite. Story wise, I think the WWE is going to do a similar angle to Orton/Christian and have something happen that gets Ambrose so angry he loses himself in the moment. Whether he picks up the title or not again, I'm not sure. Personally, I'd like to see his reign continue.
On a side note, I think Ryback has changed the Wikipedia entry in regards to the list of I-C Champions as he's listed as still holding the I-C Championship and has had a 734+ day reign.

WWE Woman's RAW Championship/Kendo Stick on a Pole Alexa Bliss vs Bayley
WWE RAW Tag Team Championship/Steel Cage The Hardy Boys vs Cesaro & Sheamus
WWE Cruiserweight Championship/Submission Neville vs Austin Aries
Mixed Tag Team Match Rich Swann & Sasha Banks vs Noam Dar & Alicia Banks Not picking a winner as I'm not really vested in this match.

Man, there is almost no good choice for the 5 way except Reigns. Everyone else will get squashed in humiliating fashion. Good luck pushing Joe as a monster after Lesnar kills him in a bell to bell crush.

I don't think they'll make Joe look weak towards Lesnar. It will most likely be quick and brutal, but I don't think they'll make him look like a punk. He has potential to be a top heel.

I hope you're right. Really, really do.
