If you thought last night was crazy it looks like we’re in for a double dose later this evening as we prepare to do it all again for Night 2 of WrestleMania 37! Talk about a crazy 24 hours! Not only did we get the very first trailer for WWE 2K22 but we also crowned a BRAND NEW SmackDown Women’s Champion in the form of Bianca Belair.
In night two of the biggest PPV of the year it’s Asuka’s turn to put her women’s Championship on the line as she defends the RAW Women’s Championship against the Nightmare Rhea Ripley!
Elsewhere after finally getting her WrestleMania moment after years of service, Tamina aided Natalya in tag team victory against four other teams in last night’s Tag Team Turmoil match resulting in a tag team Championship match against Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler later this evening. Who will leave WrestleMania 37 Night 2 with gold around their waist? It’s time for our PPV Predictions:
Women’s Tag Team Championship: Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler Vs Tamina & Natalya
Elle: To say I was over the moon with last night’s win for Tamina and Natalya would be a complete understatement. It’s been a long while since wrestling made me emotional but Nattie deciding to let Tamina hit her finisher and make the pin honestly choked me up big time. Whilst I would absolutely love Nattie and Tamina to walk out of WrestleMania as the new Tag Team Champions but I can’t help but feel like they won’t have every champ drop their title and change up the entire women’s division. I may be predicting Nia and Shayna but COME ON NATTIE & TAMINA!!!! YOU DESERVE IT!!! (spoiler: I’m predicting a win for Rhea) Prediction: Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler
Adam: I had been expecting a babyface team to win last night, so the duo of Tamina and Natalya was a surprise. Heel Vs Heel matches don’t always work out unless they do a sudden turn with GOAT and YACHT. With that in mind, and barring the WWE having plans for Nia and/or Shayna to get into singles title challenges after Mania, I don’t see an upset title change in this one. Prediction: Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler
Raw Women’s Championship: Asuka Vs Rhea Ripley
Elle: The build to this match may have been far shorter than what I would have liked for a feud between Rhea and Asuka but I’m already head over heels with it! Rhea and Asuka are both worthy winners of tonight’s match and I have no doubt that this match could be just as good as last night’s match between Belair and Banks. It’s no secret I have so much love for Asuka and Asuka without a doubt saved the many months of WWE programming when the pandemic began last year culminating in a lengthy title reign. While it may not have been the type of title run I wanted from Asuka she will still go down in history for being one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. With crowds returning and things seemingly beginning to go back to normal it’s time to shake things up and bring in the era of the Nightmare! Prediction: Rhea Ripley
Adam: This is another match, even with the short build it has had, that should be a great one. I’ve been a big Ripley fan for a long time and you can’t say enough about how good Asuka is. This is another situation where it comes down to if the WWE thinks Ripley is ready to hold the major title. I certainly think she is, and while Asuka has had a lengthy reign as Champion I don’t think there’s anyone better right now to take the lead than The Nightmare. Prediction: Rhea Ripley
