WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship Match: Alexa Bliss & Nikki Cross (c) vs. The IIconics

After capturing the titles at Hell in a Cell 2019, The Kabuki Warriors continued to hold onto them for 181 days before losing to Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross at WrestleMania 36. This victory made Bliss and Cross the only 2-time WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions in history.

As for The Kabuki Warriors, I’ve already explained that I don’t see their partnership lasting much longer. That leaves a void for another team to fill by challenging Bliss Cross Applesauce, and who better than former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions The IIconics?

After getting drafted to WWE Raw back in October, The IIconics have been relatively unseen. We haven’t seen reports of either being injured, so it seems WWE may just be looking for the right time to bring them back.

With Bliss and Cross as fan favorite champions and The Kabuki Warriors out of the picture, it’s time for The IIconics to return to competition and look to also become 2-time champions. At SummerSlam 2020, they should take this opportunity and make it IIconic by leaving Boston with the gold.

Prediction: The IIconics def. Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross to become the new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions

United States Championship Fatal 4-Way Match: Andrade (c) vs. Aleister Black vs. Kevin Owens vs. Randy Orton

Events like this tend to see at least one match turn into some version of a multi-man car crash, and this seems as good a candidate as any. While Andrade may have at one time been penciled in to defend his title at WrestleMania 36 against Rey Mysterio, lots of things kept changing plans and Andrade wasn’t even able to compete at the event.

Should his injury be minor enough to see “El Idolo” back in action soon, he would have plenty of potential opponents moving forward. Kevin Owens is fresh off a violent defeat of Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 36, and will surely be looking for some new success far away from “The Monday Night Messiah.”

Aleister Black found his own WrestleMania moment by facing Bobby Lashley and definitively destroying him The Black Mass to secure a victory. Randy Orton, on the other hand, was defeated by Edge in a brutal Last Man Standing Match.

Of course, Orton is no stranger to finding his way back to opportunity after a crushing loss. All three of these men seem like ideal challengers, so why not just put all three of them in the match? It would stack the odds, but I’d still expect Andrade to emerge victorious.

Prediction: Andrade def. Aleister Black, Kevin Owens, and Randy Orton to retain the United States Championship
