WWE Backlash 2020 Match Card Predictions: Seth Rollins Will Convert Aleister Black

Drew McIntyre (c) vs. Bobby Lashley [WWE Championship]

Last week on Monday Night Raw, Drew McIntyre defeated King Corbin in a brand-to-brand invitational match, which was scrutinized by Bobby Lashley and MVP at ringside. Clearly, Bobby Lashley is Drew McIntyre’s next challenger.

Since Lashley has not been in a WWE Championship match since The Great American Bash in 2006 against John Cena, it would be heart warming for Bobby Lashley to finally win his first ever WWE Championship after fifteen long years, like Mark Henry did.

However, Drew McIntyre’s reign is just getting started and he needs to sell the fact that he is the Ultimate Beast Slayer by having a lengthy WWE Championship reign. Henceforth, McIntyre retaining the WWE Championship here is a foregone conclusion.

Prediction: Drew McIntyre

Braun Strowman (c) vs. Dirt Sheet [Universal Championship]

Remember the last time Braun Strowman defended a championship in a handicap match? He lost the Intercontinental Championship to The Artist Collective at WWE Elimination Chamber 2020 and this similar situation with The Dirt Sheet could be his way of redeeming himself from his past mishap, especially since Dirt Sheet are on the verge of breaking up.

Thanks to Strowman’s unfinished business with Bray Wyatt, he will evidently retain the Universal Championship in this handicap match and get attacked by The Fiend after the match. This attack should set up Otis for a potential MITB cash-in and thereby permit Strowman and Wyatt to have a non-title feud on the road to SummerSlam since they don’t need a title for their feud anyways.

Prediction: Otis
