Seth Rollins vs ‘The Fiend’ Bray Wyatt (Universal Championship)

After the Hell in a Cell match between Seth Rollins and The Fiend Bray Wyatt for the Universal Championship ended with no clear winner, WWE announced that the two would go up against each other at the Crown Jewel event. The Hell in the Cell match was stopped mid-way after Rollins took a sledgehammer to his opponent. This time, WWE has specified that the match will not be interrupted for any reason. Now, The Fiend is on the SmackDown roster. The chances of him winning the title on RAW and moving it to SmackDown seems slim. So are his chances of moving back to the red brand. So, it looks like Rollins has better chances of retaining the title by defeating the Fiend in another drama-filled match.

Prediction: Seth Rollins defeats The Fiend

Brock Lesnar vs. Cain Velasquez (WWE Championship)

Brock Lesnar took just moments to defeat Kofi Kingston on SmackDown to win the WWE Championship. But before he could take his victory bow, he was confronted by Rey Mysterio and Cain Velasquez. Since then, the former MMA fighter has signed with WWE and has been given a match against the beast at the Crown Jewel event. It is a fact that nine years ago, Velasquez had defeated Lesnar in the MMA octagon. However, it is difficult to envisage him repeating the feat. The WWE universe is profoundly different from MMA, and in this universe, Velasquez is yet to make a mark while Lesnar is a star. If by some miracle, Velasquez was to win, he may find it difficult to garner much fan support. Or it may catapult him into overnight popularity. Either way, for now, it is safe to say that the match belongs to Lesnar.

Tag Team Turmoil (WWE World Cup)

Yes, the WWE World Cup is for real, and it will go to the winner of the Tag Team Turmoil match in Saudi Arabia. Nine teams will vie for the title. The groups are The New Day (Big E & Kofi Kingston), Heavy Machinery, The Viking Riders, Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder, Lucha House Party, The O.C. (Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson), The Revival, Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode, The B-Team. According to WWE, this is going to be a free-for-all match, probably with all nine teams fighting in the match at the same time. If records are anything to go by, it seems unlikely that the Lucha House Party, Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode, Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder, or The B-Team will win the Cup or the Best Tag Team in the world title. The real match will be between Heavy Machinery, RAW tag team champions The Viking Raiders, The O.C., The New Day, and SmackDown Tag team champs the Revival. While all the teams look good for the win, our bet is on the New Day. A win will also allow a new storyline for Kofi Kingston.

Prediction: The New Day wins
