The Fiend (c) vs. Braun Strowman – Universal Championship – Firefly Fun House Match

So as of this writing, it’s been announced that Bray Wyatt will be making his return to SmackDown this Friday. I predict that Wyatt will reveal that The Fiend will pick up the pieces where he failed at Money in the Bank, setting up a “rematch” vs. Strowman at Extreme Rules, where The Fiend wins.

I’m guessing Strowman somehow earns himself a rematch at SummerSlam, but not just any rematch. It winds up being a much anticipated sequel to WrestleMania’s Firefly Fun House Match. This time, instead of John Cena, it’ll be Braun Strowman entering the wacky world of the Fun House. What will happen? If it’s anything like that Mania match, then someone will die … of fun.

Drew McIntyre (c) vs. Randy Orton – WWE Championship

The way that last night’s Raw ended gives me the impression that Christian will get his “One More Match” vs. Randy Orton at Extreme Rules. If that’s the case, then McIntyre’s Extreme Rules opponent really looks up in the air right now.

But whoever he faces, McIntyre should be expected to retain at the PPV, which means he’ll be ready to face Raw’s top heel – Orton – at WWE’s biggest summer show. And if Orton comes off the heels of beating both Edge and Christian in back to back noteworthy PPV matches, then he’ll walk into the show posing an even bigger threat to the belt.
