US Championship: Jeff Hardy (c) def. Jinder Mahal
It seems like, after the Superstar Shakeup, the United States Championship is staying on SmackDown while the Intercontinental Championship will stay on Raw.
Jinder Mahal walked out of WrestleMania and into Raw as United States Champion. However, Jeff Hardy walked out of that Raw and into SmackDown as the champ. This signifies that Hardy will be kept separate from the Woken Universe for now as he begins his singles’ run.
So, I expect Hardy to continue his ascent up the card with another win against Jinder at the Greatest Royal Rumble.
IC Championship: Seth Rollins (c) def. Finn Bálor, Samoa Joe, & The Miz
Now, this looks to be a barnburner of a match. All four of these competitors have the in ring potential to steal the show in any given match, but throwing them all together will surely create some magic. Oh yeah, and it is also a LADDER match.
So, this match should be all sorts of fun, and Seth Rollins looks to be The Man walking out with his championship. The Miz has his rematch for the belt at Backlash, and Samoa Joe is currently feuding with Reigns, so neither really need the belt right now.
Meanwhile, Seth and Finn look like they may be feuding over the belt in the near future, but I think it is best to keep the strap on Rollins for now since he just won it at WrestleMania.
Cruiserweight Championship: Cedric Alexander (c) def. Mustafa Ali
At first, Buddy Murphy was scheduled to face Cedric at The Greatest Royal Rumble, but Murphy was unable to make weight. I’m sure this is just kayfabe in order to prolong his feud with Cedric Alexander.
So, a challenger for Cedric has yet to be decided. A gauntlet match will determine who will face him at TheGreatest Royal Rumble, and I wouldn’t be surprised if his greatest rival gets another shot, but Ali will likely fall to Cedric again.
