WWE WrestleMania 33: Match Card Predictions 6.0, Post-Royal Rumble

Kevin Owens vs Chris Jericho

The last few months have been the Kevin Owens and Chris Jericho show on Raw, but WrestleMania would be the perfect time to have the best friends finally collide one on one.

At Royal Rumble, we saw Owens defend his Universal Championship against Roman Reigns, with Jericho locked in the shark cage above the ring. That was meant to ensure that Jericho couldn’t get involved in the match, which he didn’t except for brass knuckles. Braun Strowman would interfere and cost Reigns the match, allowing Owens to win.

Heading to ‘Mania, the tension needs to build between the pair. Jericho will probably have to defend his United States Championship before ‘Mania, so that could be a time for Owens to cost Jericho that title. That leads to Jericho putting Owens on The List, and then a match between the two of them on the grandest stage of them all.

That match could potentially have a title attached to it, be it the United States or Universal Championships, but it doesn’t necessarily need anything on the line other than pride.
