Now it\u2019s Raw\u2019s turn and Christmas used to mean Armageddon in WWE land. However, tonight we get &#8220;Roadblock: End of the Line.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Predicted Running Time: 2 hours 50 minutes plus 1 hour Kick-Off Show.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Rusev vs. Big Cass (Kick Off show match)<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Early Betting Odds Favourite: Rusev<\/p>\n<p>Steve\u2019s Prediction: Hard to go against the Bookmakers on this one. Whilst this feud has had a partial buildup (including the infamous hotel shenanigans), it still feels like what it is, a kick-off show filler. Rusev to win with The Accolade following failed interference from Enzo in 15 mins.<\/p>\n<p>Follow Up: We should get Enzo vs Rusev at some point in the next few weeks. I can\u2019t see that being a Royal Rumble calibre match so may see it tomorrow on Raw.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Chris Jericho vs. Seth Rollins<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Early Betting Odds Favourite: Seth Rollins<\/p>\n<p>Steve\u2019s Prediction: Whilst Jericho has arguably delivered some of the best work of his WWE run in the past few months,\u00a0 the past few weeks of \u2018Are they friends or not\u2019 seems to have run it\u2019s course. But before things come to a head at the end of the night, expect to see a failed Owens run-in attempt, allowing Rollins to win by Pedigree in 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Follow Up: See Main Event&#8230;<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-372968974\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<h3><b>Rich Swann vs. TJ Perkins vs. The Brian Kendrick \u2013 WWE Cruiserweight Championship\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Early Betting Odds Favourite: Rich Swann<\/p>\n<p>Steve\u2019s Prediction: I can\u2019t see Swann losing the title so soon, especially after some great recent outings on Raw and 205 Live. Swann to pick up the win in 20 mins with pinfall over The Brian Kendrick.<\/p>\n<p>Follow Up:\u00a0 Expect a TJ Perkins heal turn at some point in the match\/aftermath to lead to a Swann vs Perkins run likely culminating at the Royal Rumble.<\/p>\n<h3><b>The New Day vs. Sheamus &amp;\u00a0Cesaro \u2013 WWE Tag Team Championship<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Early Betting Odds Favourite: Seamus &amp;\u00a0Cesaro<\/p>\n<p>Steve\u2019s Prediction: Betting odds are indicating a title change tonight (or at least a DQ\/Countout loss by New Day). Now that New Day are firmly in the record books as longest reigning WWE Tag Team Champions, then I think it\u2019s the right time for a title change to freshen up the Tag Title picture. Expect Cesaro to be on fire in this match and to pick up the win with the Neutraliser in 18 mins.<\/p>\n<p>Follow Up: Obligatory re-match tomorrow night on Raw with a possible title switch back or we could see interference from Anderson and Gallows in the mix.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Sasha Banks vs. Charlotte Flair \u2013 WWE Women\u2019s Championship 30 Minute Ironman Match<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Early Betting Odds Favourite: Sasha Banks<\/p>\n<p>Steve\u2019s Prediction: If I was a betting man then I would go against the bookmakers tonight. Whilst the WWE Women\u2019s championship has flip flopped more times than a Ric Flair turnbuckle bump lately, I think WWE will continue with their \u2018Unofficial Charlotte only winning on Pay Per View Events streak\u2019. I predict a 2-1 win for Charlotte with her final submission coming in the 5 minutes overtime after tieing 1-1.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-506697945\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Follow Up: Time for Bayley to step up to the title picture only for Sasha to take offence tomorrow on Raw, heal turn and feud with Bayley. Leaves a gap for someone else to step up to challenge Charlotte. Maybe Nia Jax in a turn not many people will care about.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Roman Reigns vs. Kevin Owens \u2013 WWE Universal Championship\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Early Betting Odds Favourite: Roman Reigns<\/p>\n<p>Steve\u2019s Prediction: I\u2019m torn. There are two possible outcomes to this match. They either put the belt on Reigns and pull the trigger on the long overdue heal turn, or Jericho\u2019s interference dupes Reigns and the whole WWE Universe to allow Owens to retain the title and show that the best are friends are still just that.\u00a0 I\u2019m going with the latter. Roman Reigns wins by DQ in 25 minutes following Jericho\u2019s interference with \u2018The List\u2019. Owens remain WWE Universal Champion.<\/p>\n<p>Follow Up: Kevin Owens vs Chris Jericho at The Royal Rumble as a \u2018Thank You\u2019 for the assist. Reigns has to enter the Rumble to try to regain another title shot.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been a bumper packed year of WWE Special Events, especially since the Brand Split. Look forward to the next outing of WWE Royal Rumble in January.
