Extreme Rules Chances

This is kind of last minute, but I've been told better late than never.

EXTREME RULES CHANCES

Cody Rhodes vs. Rey Mysterio - Falls Count Anywhere

Rey Mysterio - 67%
Cody Rhodes - 33%

I gave the exact opposite percentages at Wrestlemania. The reason I have flip-flopped on the winner is that the two are now on opposite brands and this will be the end of their rivalry. While I couldn't see how a win at Wrestlemania could help Rey, now that he's on Raw, I could see the need for a small push (not that he needs to get over any more than he already is). Cody solidified himself as a big-time player on Smackdown with his win at Wrestlemania, but I don't think beating the same man again would help too much.

Layla vs. Michelle McCool - No DQ, No count out, Loser leaves WWE

Layla - 99.9%
Michelle McCool - 0.1%

Everything I have read has told me this is a slam dunk because Michelle McCool has made arrangements to leave WWE. I can't bring myself to put 100% on this though because my sources have been wrong before.

Jerry Lawler and Jim Ross vs. Michael Cole and Jack Swagger - Country Whipping Match

Jerry Lawler and Jim Ross - 58%
Michael Cole and Jack Swagger - 42%

I'm being cautiously optimistic about the chances of this match beginning the end of the obnoxious version of MIchael Cole. I also think WWE really owes Lawler after screwing him out of a win at Wrestlemania. Unfortunately, I can't put a high number on it because their is a large possibility that the side of Vince McMahon that hates us all may rear its ugly head and continue this Cole fiasco for months and months.

Randy Orton vs. CM Punk - Last Man Standing

Randy Orton - 69%
CM Punk - 31%

I, for one, believe that the rumors of CM Punk being unhappy and possibly leaving the WWE are being overblown. Punk was injured for quite a while last year and just because he hasn't been in the title picture the past 6 months doesn't mean he will never get back there. He is a three time World Champion for Pete's sake. I think he's professional enough to take some losses without getting pissy. That said, Orton has an astonishingly high win percentage since turning face so I will favor him in every match until he faces Undertaker at Wrestlemania again.

World Heavyweight Championship Ladder Match

Christian - 60%
Alberto Del Rio - 40%

I know what you're thinking. "Christian should be at 90% or higher!" Call me crazy, but I have this feeling inside of me that Del Rio is going to win the title and take it with him to Raw. Both belts have been on the same show before and I could see it happening again, especially since Smackdown has both the United States Championship and the Intercontinental Championship at this time. I even picked Del Rio to win in the PPV Prediction Game, but I know that he is still the underdog because of the circumstances.

WWE Championship Steel Cage Triple Threat Match

John Cena - 50%
The Miz - 45%
John Morrison - 5%

In the disappointing Miz/Cena match at Wrestlemania, I had Cena favored by a slight amount. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised at the result. Here we are again and again I have Cena slightly favored. Cena hasn't held the WWE Title since June. I don't see them going a full year without it around his waist. I still give Miz a good shot at retaining. I still say he has exceeded all expectations as the WWE Champion and he should be the guy management looks at and says, "Hey, maybe we should give young guys a shot more often". Morrison seems to be engaged in a feud with R-Truth even though he technically has a chance as well. But I see Truth getting involved and costing Morrison the title.


So there you have it. I apologize for only giving you guys half an hour to see this before the PPV starts. This is the first time I've seen a real life computer this week. IT HAS A KEYBOARD AND A MOUSE AND EVERYTHING!!!

Whoa...

But if you get a "chance", comment away baybay.
