Daniel Bryan vs. Big Cass
This is a weird match.
They’re obviously building towards Daniel Bryan vs The Miz but Big Cass also recently just came back so WWE would like to book him strong. We even saw Cass as the last man eliminated by Braun Strowman in the Greatest Royal Rumble match.
Daniel Bryan is in a position where he could be a gold mine for the company with his return. Bryan now has the opportunity to wrestle all of these guys that we got to see him wrestle on the independent scene years ago or these brand new faces for dream matches that we thought we would never see.
Big Cass does not fit the mold of either of those scenarios. The two have never wrestled one-on-one but this isn’t any type of dream match. Even with the Miz it’s a dream match between he and Daniel Bryan because even though we had seen it we never thought we would see it again due to Daniels injury.
The story between Daniel Bryan and Big Cass is also pretty weak considering that it’s based on Cass being big and disliking Bryan because he’s small. I think Cass needs the win more but I also think that they really need to book Bryan much stronger going forward. I’m taking Bryan to get the job done.
Prediction- Daniel Bryan

Braun Strowman & Bobby Lashley vs. Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn
I can’t imagine that Braun Strowman’s losing anything anytime soon.
Unless Lashley turns heel to try to set up Lashley vs. Strowman, I just do not see Strowman losing.
I will say that I think they Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn are the more talented of these four performers. In fact, I think that Owens and Zayn are two of the best pro wrestlers in the world in any company right now. I hope that Owens and Zayn can rebound and something bigger happens for both guys very soon.
But once again, I don’t see Strowman losing. Especially coming right off of his win at the Greatest Royal Rumble. There’s not much else to say about this one.
