WWE WrestleMania 36 Predictions: Roman Reigns Exterminates The Fiend

Heavy Machinery and Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross vs. RooDolph and Fire and Desire [Mixed Tag Team Match]
Every time Otis and Mandy Rose are close to falling in love, Dolph Ziggler gets in the way to steal all of Otis’ thunder. Assuming that Mandy Rose turns on Otis, breaks his heart, and starts dating Ziggler before WWE WrestleMania 36, there could be a mixed tag team match to close the rivalry.
While Ziggler can grab Robert Roode to team up with Rose and Deville, Heavy Machinery could ask for some help from Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross. Bliss and Cross have been battling Fire and Desire for the past few months on Friday Night SmackDown and have witnessed the love angles between Otis and Rose, some of which affected the results of their matches.
If this match occurs, Heavy Machinery and Bliss and Cross should win to avenge what Ziggler and Rose end up doing. In this situation, a babyface victory would be necessary and would also warrant tag team championship opportunities for both Heavy Machinery and Bliss Cross Applesauce in their respective divisions.
Prediction: Heavy Machinery and Bliss Cross Applesauce
Rusev, Ricochet, Liv Morgan, and Maria Kanellis vs. Bobby Lashley, Mike Kanellis, Lana, and Ruby Riott [Mixed Tag Team Match]
Remember when Ricochet was exposed as the father for Maria Kanellis’ baby but Maria lied and later revealed it was Rusev? Thanks to these revelations, Maria’s husband, Mike Kanellis, was furious at both Rusev and Ricochet and ended up losing to both of them in the same night.
Remember when that paternity storyline transitioned to everyone wondering where Lana was when Rusev returned to in-ring action? Thanks to that mystery, a new storyline was born once Bobby Lashley and Lana were kissing on the stage in front of the dismayed Rusev.
Remember when that infidelity storyline lead to Liv Morgan returning and revealing that she was in love with Lana during Bobby Lashley and Lana’s wedding? Thanks to that revelation, a new alliance was born between Rusev and Liv Morgan as they shared a common enemy in Lana.
Remember when that LGBTQ storyline lead to Ruby Riott returning and simply betraying her Riott Squad ally, Liv Morgan? It’s beyond anyone’s psyche how these events connect, but a mixed tag team match amongst all of these superstars could shed some light on the connection and hopefully put an end to this consistently told yet immoral storyline.
If this match occurs, the babyface team should win to right the many wrongs of this storyline. Also, the heel team has gained enough momentum in the past few months to warrant a slow burn to Rusev, Ricochet, Liv Morgan, and Maria Kanellis obtaining their retribution and ending this rivalry on top.
Prediction: Rusev, Ricochet, Liv Morgan, and Maria Kanellis
