WWE WrestleMania 35: Preview and predictions
By Luke Norris
Winner Take All Match for the Raw & SmackDown Women’s Championship (Triple Threat)
Ronda Rousey (c) vs. Charlotte Flair (c) vs. Becky Lynch
What can possibly be said to hype you up more than you already are for this historic matchup? Like many reading this, I was on the fence about Charlotte Flair being added to the mix after it looked like we were going to get the one-on-one match between Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey that we were supposed to see at Survivor Series. But she has added an element to this feud that maybe no one knew was needed. Simply put, this is all better with her involved. And she deserves to be here. She’s the best athlete in the women’s division and she brings so much experience to this match. We’ve seen her chemistry with Lynch over the years and we saw it with Rousey at Survivor Series. While a few of the promos have been a little off, Rousey embracing her heel role has been quite entertaining, the Rousey we all wanted to see when she came to WWE, not the smiles and “I’m just so happy to be here” moments, but the Rousey who wants to hurt people. That’s the character that’s helping to sell this match. And, of course, there’s Lynch, who has had one of the biggest and best years that a WWE Superstar can have. She’s become the hottest thing in all of professional wrestling and is just killing all of it. The promos, the matches, the segments like that scene on Monday night with the police that had an Attitude Era chaos that has been missing from WWE for so long. It was so, so good and I am expecting nothing less from this match on Sunday.
Prediction: I’m waiting to see the sign at MetLife Stadium and there will likely be more than one. “If Becky loses we riot” or something along those lines is about right, isn’t it? Things may be up in the air with Kingston or Rollins, but there is no way that Lynch can walk out of WrestleMania without those two titles. This is Steve Austin at WrestleMania XIV. This is Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania XXX. This moment is that big and there’s no other way this can end.
