Fatal 4-Way Match for the Women's Tag Team Championships: Bayley and Lyra Valkyria vs. Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss vs. The Bella Twins vs. Nia Jax and Lash Legend

The Bella Twins are still advertised for the match despite Nikki's injury, which has her availability in question. If they do in fact compete Saturday night, this is the perfect opportunity to create a moment via their first-ever tag team title victory.

Prediction: Bella Twins win the title

Women's Intercontinental Championship Match: AJ Lee vs. Becky Lynch

This is a generational battle between two of the best wrestlers and most influential women in pro wrestling history. Unless Lee is sticking around and working more consistently, this is an opportunity for Lynch to finally defeat her fellow future Hall of Famer, regain her title, and exorcise that demon from her past.

Prediction: Lynch wins the title

Women's World Championship Match: Stephanie Vaquer vs. Liv Morgan

The surprisingly intense, physical feud has seen Vaquer and Morgan attack each other on numerous occasions, including one that left the latter with an egg-shaped lump on her forehead and black eyes. Morgan needs the win more than La Primera, if for no other reason to pay off her comeback and Royal Rumble win in her first singles WrestleMania match.

Prediction: Morgan wins the title

Undisputed WWE Championship Match: Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton

Based on the story that has been told in recent weeks, Orton must win the title and set Rhodes up as a challenger chasing the gold that has been stolen from him by his former mentor, as well as Pat McAfee and any other outside force that may be involved in the chaos that has unfolded of late. Otherwise, all of the controversy surrounding McAfee was for naught.

Prediction: Orton wins the title

Ladder Match for the Intercontinental Championship: Penta vs. Rey Mysterio vs. Dragon Lee vs. Je'Von Evans vs. Rusev vs. JD McDonagh

Unless the goal is to elevate him post-WrestleMania to main event status, there is no reason for Penta not to win this match, retain his title, and continue his quest to strengthen the credibility of the IC title.

Prediction: Penta retains the title

United States Championship Match: Sami Zayn vs. Trick Williams

With fans cheering Williams and booing Zayn, this match presents WWE with the perfect opportunity to execute a double-turn, starting with a tainted, shady victory for Zayn that suggests he may not be the wholesome underdog he portrays himself to be. That is the direction WWE should head in order to address the recent jeers and rejection of Zayn as United States champion.

Prediction: Zayn retains the title

WWE Women's Championship Match: Rhea Ripley vs. Jade Cargill

Cargill is still finding herself as a heel champion, and while that may be enough of a reason to keep the title on her, we have not really seen a version of her character where she is presented as anything but a dominant ass-kicker. Losing the title to Ripley and being forced to regroup would do wonders for her on-screen persona.

Prediction: Ripley wins the title

World Heavyweight Championship Match: CM Punk vs. Roman Reigns

Every sign points to Reigns regaining his status as the Head of the Table and the world champion, but there is something to be said about the way Punk has stepped up, become the face of the Raw brand, and carried the world championship with pride and legitimacy. Plus, if Reigns wins the title and takes WWE back to "when it was great," what does it say about the last two years without him on top?

Prediction: Punk retains
