My predictions:
1) Cien defeats the Perfect 10, clean.
Nothing really to discuss here. A hyped debut is not doing anything but winning clean over a developmental enhancement talent. Maybe if this were against the Drifter I could see them going for an upset since they're so sorely lacking in midcard and main event heels right now, but ...
2) The Revival cheat American Alpha out of the titles.
AA are absolutely getting called up during the Draft, and The Revival need the rub of having the belts more than AA needs another month on their reign before getting called up. Plus they've clearly built a feud with Gargano / Ciampa (who probably splinter off with Ciampa turning heel, and TM61 being the next challenge).
3) Asuka retains, Jax protected.
They didn't build Nia back up just to have her lose clean again. This one I'm a bit iffy on, tho - they could have her lose again, and send her away for another couple months to lose even more weight. I'm not saying she has to, just it's pretty obvious what they had her focusing on while off tv last time - but anyway then have her come back after Bayley and Asuka have finished their business. Asuka crushes cans until the Bayley rematch, Bayley wins. Asuka moves up. Jax returns, takes belt from Bayley, Bayley moves up. By then we have a new crop of face ladies (like Tessa Blanchard, Ricochet's lady)
4) Shinsuke defeats Aries.
For here I'll leave it at: Aries turns full heel after the match by destroying Nakamura. More on my call for this match in the main event discussion:
5) Samoa Joe retains in dominant fashion, yet Bálor protected.
Ultimately ... I think Joe is keeping this title, because Nakamura is the person clearly being built for next run at the championship. There are just no main event heels but Joe right now, and Aries after Takeover. However, since this is supposed to be the end of this feud ... well, the only way that happens is if someone is written off tv until they get called up. And I think that's Finn.
Ultimately the main event is the match I'm least certain about ... even Austin/Shinsuke, which hangs on the outcome of the main event, the way I see it. Maybe The Club come down and help Balor regain. Maybe The Usos happen to show up to counter them.
More realistically, and I've mentioned this before, maybe Finn does a stomp off the cage and "injures" himself, and Joe hits a muscle buster / chokes him out. Or Balor does a shotgun dropkick that knocks Joe through the cage, but then Joe destroys him with a muscle buster on the floor (setting it up from off the apron or something). No matter what happens, tho, this match is gonna be like 20-25 minutes long and it's gonna be amazing and I know the finish will not disappoint. These guys are just too talented.
Tag match should be great, but it's the one I think most likely to not live up to expectations (is anyone really hyped for Asuka / Jax ? And Cien / 10, no one's expecting much, but I think it could surprise). And of course the featured non-title match is gonna blow the roof off - that one's gonna get like 15-20 minutes, itself. Very hyped for this card.
