Top Wrestlepalooza Matches to Watch

John Cena vs. Brock Lesnar

After attacking John Cena following a surprise return at SummerSlam, Brock Lesnar is finally set to compete in his first match in over two years.

The match will be one of the last of Cena's legendary career, as he has only five advertised appearances remaining after Wrestlepalooza.

Cena and Lesnar have faced each other many times over the years, and they both have had their fair share of success, making the result of their Wrestlepalooza bout a tough one to predict.

If it is indeed the last match ever between Cena and Lesnar, there is perhaps value in giving Cena the win and providing him with some momentum heading toward the end of his retirement tour.

However, if there are plans for a rematch, Lesnar striking first would likely be the most logical move, as it would force Cena to overcome adversity.

Regardless of the booking, there is a great deal of anticipation surrounding the first Cena vs. Lesnar singles match in over a decade, as both Superstars have plenty of incentive to put forth a strong performance.

CM Punk & AJ Lee vs. Seth Rollins & Becky Lynch

A new chapter will be written in the long-running rivalry between CM Punk and Seth Rollins at Wrestlepalooza, and it will include a unique twist.

After Becky Lynch helped Rollins, her husband, beat Punk and two others in a World Heavyweight Championship Fatal 4-Way at Clash in Paris, the dynamic of the feud changed.

Lynch confronted Punk on the ensuing episode of Raw and slapped him multiple times, prompting Punk to go to drastic measures in the form of bringing his wife, AJ Lee, back to WWE for the first time in over 10 years.

AJ has been a thorn in Becky's side ever since her return, sparring with her on the mic and even stealing the Women's Intercontinental Championship at one point.

Wrestlepalooza represents a huge opportunity for Punk to get his revenge, but with the rest of The Vision in Rollins' back pocket, the heel team may have some tricks up their sleeve.

Iyo Sky vs. Stephanie Vaquer

Two of the best women's wrestlers in the world will do battle at Wrestlepalooza with the vacant Women's World Championship hanging in the balance.

Stephanie Vaquer was originally supposed to face the winner of a title match between Naomi and Iyo Sky at Clash in Paris, but everything changed when Naomi had to vacate the title after announcing she was pregnant.

The match was moved off of Clash in Paris and onto the Wrestlepalooza card, and Raw general manager Adam Pearce decided to make Sky the new opponent for Vaquer since Iyo never got her title match.

Since Vaquer and Sky are in the midst of a friendly rivalry, there may not be much animosity between them during the match, but the possibility of Asuka and Kairi Sane getting involved either to help or hinder Iyo is undoubtedly lurking.

Whether or not that happens, Vaquer and Sky have a chance to put on one of the best WWE matches of the year, while elevating the importance of the women's world title in the process.
