Survivor Series 2011 Predictions



Dolph Ziggler (c) vs. John Morrison  for the WWE United States Championship
John Morrison has been nothing but a huge a disappointment. The year started with a five star match between he and The Miz to open up the year. Since WrestleMania, Morrison has been in the doghouse. Simply ignoring a legend just because his girlfriend was replaced. Not only that, Morrison has not evolved. We have seen an evolved Ziggler since the Royal Rumble. That night, I was sold on him being a future star, since then his microphone skills have improved and he has represented the United States Champion like no other. Usually the championship solidifies the superstar, in the case, the superstar solidifies the championship. Ziggler retains.

Beth Phoenix (c) vs. Eve for the WWE Divas Championship
Beth Phoenix should not lose the title, but if she does, it will be because of Natalya. Natalya has been on a losing streak and some sense some tension between the two. I think this is just building between a showdown between the two at WrestleMania.

Team Barrett (Wade Barrett, Cody Rhodes, Jack Swagger, Hunico & Dolph Ziggler) vs. Team 
Orton (Randy Orton, Sheamus, Mason Ryan, Kofi Kingston & Sin Cara)
A year ago, Barrett and Orton were both in the main event for the WWE Championship. Since then Orton has been a two time World Heavyweigh Champion and Barrett has been Intercontinental Champion and leader of the Corre. The two paths cross again during the Thanksgiving tradition. Bareet has two former World Champions on his tZiggler and Swagger) while Orton has one former WWE champions and former foe (Sheamus). When it comes to experience, Barrett has the edge, but if anyone can over this, its Randy Orton, who is near flawless during the Survivor Series. Orton has been the sole Survivor on many occassions and the last person to beat him is on his team (Kofi Kingston).

Mark Henry (c) vs The Big Show  for the World Heavyweight Championship
The last time these two behemoths met, the ring imploded...literally. Normally watching two Super Heavyweights battle can be very boring, but since these two have been going at, it has been very interesting. Survivor Series has always been good to the Big Show. In 1999 he avenged the Big Bossman after disrespecting his fathers death and more importantly, he later won his first WWE Championship title from Triple H and The Rock. In 2002, he defeated Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship. Could this year continue his Thanksgiving tradition by winning gold?

CM Punk vs Alberto Del Rio (c) for the WWE Championship
CM Punk and Alberto Del Rio have been having a classic rivalry. Starting with SummerSlam. Punk wins the title and is named undisputed champion, and Del Rio cashes in his money in the bank brief case. At Hell in a Cell, while John Cena is locked out of the cage, Del Rio hits Punk in the head with a lead pipe and regains the title after losing it to Cena. This match is important to Punk. He has beaten Del Rio on Raw a few times, but on the big stage, he has not and this Sunday will very important. In my opinion, Punk wins.

The Rock and John Cena vs R-Truth and The Miz
The Rock and Cena have a way of trying to one up the other. Now the two are actually on one team, which means they will have to tag each other and maybe even doing some tag team moves. This advantage goes to the Awesome Truth. Knowing this, if Miz or Truth force an accidental bump between these two, this could spell trouble for both. Madison Sqaure Garden has been known for history making events, including The Rock's debut. The last time The Rock wrestled, it was here and in my opinion, I really feel that maybe Cena will turn on The Rock and end up being booed out of the arena. Only time will tell!!!
