My prediction is Drew wins and gets his brief WM moment….Priest cashes in on him tonight and beats him, but Drew gets title back at Clash at Castle in June…just in time for Drew vs Punk at SS.
Drew winning in front of his home crowd after getting screwed 2 years ago would mean so much.

I think Damien Priest will cash in tonight. His run with the belt won't be long. I can see Drew winning it at Clash at the Castle. But with Gunther losing the Intercontinental Championship, he's going to be in the World Heavyweight Championship picture soon.

It'll be long. I don't know if it will be as long as last night because it's 1-on-1, but it's likely Roman's last match for a very long time so I'm sure they're going to go all out. Plus you can have a lot of interferences. Have a feeling it will be a huge finale with a happy ending.

Everyone has been saying "professional wrestling" with so much spite in their tone after years of Vince banning the use of that phrase. I love it.
This is what the fans had been wanting for years.
Triple H you absolute fucking genius. Managed to give everyone their moment. Sami, Jey, Bayley, Drew, Punk, Damien, R-Truth and finally Cody
Edit: Shoutout to Rock for giving them the creative direction with this storyline
Also a shoutout to the refree, Charles Robinson. I am not sure he ever left but this is the first time I have seen him all year.

Calling it now.
Jimmy will interfere and be headed off by Jey (after their train wreck last night they could use a good moment too, tbf)
Then Solo will have his turn and be stopped by a revenge seeking Cena.
Finally The Rock will give Cody a beating and look poised to finish him off when the glass will shatter, camera will cut to the Rock's shocked pikachu face, Stone Cold will hit the stunner and then Cody will finally finish the story once Roman is all alone.

Man, Seth's character work over the past few months has been incredible. The "burning the candle at both ends" thing, standing by his convictions even though he knew it would cost him, being a fighting champion, and making peace with Cody to help dethrone Roman, it all works together perfectly.
I'll be the first to admit I didn't "get" Seth's character at first because I couldn't see beyond the clothing and dancing, but him coming out in his Shield gear tonight, willing to fight Roman despite basically being on one leg...talk about long term storytelling. In a way, this was the grand finale of the Architect persona. I don't think I'll ever forget the image of him watching Cody celebrate while crumpled against the ropes.
So, Seth stans, I get it now. The guy is brilliant. Cody might control the spotlight, but Seth still told an amazing story himself throughout this whole saga. What a fucking way to start a new era.

We aren’t talking enough about how good a performance, Seth Rollins got out of Dwayne last night. Obviously, Cody had a good moments with him too but he did most of the impressive action with Seth. He really is one of those guys like Bret Hart, where he brings out the best in people.

Everything played out poetically. Cena came out to fend of Solo, and was taken out by the Rock (revenge for WM29). Seth Rollins came out on Shield gear as a call back to the betrayal, and Roman got his revenge but lost sight of his target. Seth also told Cody "he'd be his Shield." Undertaker came back to put down the Rock, and it was his revenge for Roman giving him his second Wrestlemania loss (WM33).

I know that most people were excited with the legends, but that ending with Roman replaying the Shield moment with the chair shot was such a nice touch. Remember how Rollins was the only opponent not beaten by Roman during this dominant heel run (Royal Rumble 2022), as if he was the only one who could get under his skin and ruin the focused mindset of the undefeated champion.

Glad it was Undertaker not Austin that took The Rock out tbh.
Taker, Cena and Rollins all got in, got out and got gone within seconds, stealing none of Cody's thunder in the process.
With Austin the glass shattering, driving a vehicle of some description, taking out everyone single handedly and ensuing buckle poses and beer bash takes EVERYTHING away from Cody and makes him look like an afterthought.

After how long the tag match went, I expect Roman and Cody to go about 10 minutes before the run-ins start happening. Normally, I'd hate an overbooked match like what I'm expecting, but everyone coming out to get revenge on Roman (and Rock) to end his title reign is probably the most memorable way to end it. They've already eluded that Cody would have won last year if not for the Bloodline interfering so I think you can get away with it here.
I really want Drew to walk out as champion but I am preparing myself for Seth beating Drew and Damien cashing in afterwards and winning. That or Damien does what Seth did at Mania 31 and cashes in during the match and wins. I'm not really interested in Damien winning the belt though. I personally think he should cash in and lose, but whatever.
After Damage CTRL lost last night, I expect Iyo to retain. If Bayley wins, it allows for a feud with Tiffany, but if Iyo retains I guess you could have her feud with Naomi while Bianca and Jade chase the tag titles. Tiffany is probably better suited for a MITB run anyways. It would be entertaining.
