WWE SmackDown Predictions (4/17/2020): Tamina beats Sasha Banks

4.) Naomi Defeats Dana Brooke to Qualify for the Women’s MITB Ladder Match

Naomi will defeat Dana Brooke on this week’s SmackDown to qualify for this year’s Women’s MITB Ladder Match. Since Dana Brooke is already booked for a women’s tag team championship match with Carmella against Bliss Cross Applesauce, it isn’t necessary for her to be in the Women’s MITB Ladder Match.

Although it’s unfortunate Brooke missed out on her singles championship opportunity at WrestleMania 36, Naomi has been chasing the SmackDown Women’s Championship since she returned to in-ring action. Henceforth, it makes more sense for her to pick up the victory and qualify for the Women’s MITB Ladder Match.

3.) Cesaro Defeats Daniel Bryan to Qualify for the Men’s MITB Ladder Match

Cesaro will defeat Daniel Bryan on this week’s SmackDown to qualify for this year’s Men’s MITB Ladder Match. He needs the win more and should continue his momentum from defeating Drew Gulak at WrestleMania 36.

Although Bryan has been losing a lot of big matches lately, he has already been Mr. MITB and still has an alternative to chase after the SmackDown Tag Team Championships with Drew Gulak. Henceforth, there is no harm in having Cesaro qualify here, even if the victory is nefarious with Nakamura and Zayn at ringside.
