Bash at The Beach: GSM's Predictions For The SummerSlam PPV

Graham GSM Matthews
Aug 14, 2010

This Sunday,ย WWEย presents it's 23rd annualย SummreSlamย Paper-view. I did do a prediction list similar to this last month and my prediction aren't half bad.

From what I hope, I am right on what the match is supposed to end like, and I only wishย WWEย continues to surprise us and may get these wrong (did that make sense?).

So let's get started.

Match 1: Alicia Fox (c) vs. Melina (Divas Championship)

Possible Prediction:ย I like the idea of having a worthy divas match at every paper-view instead of the random tag team matches that were confirmed at the last minute. I am glad, the Lay-cool vs. Kelly Kelly and Tiffany match was cancelled since we've seen a million times before, but that besides the point.

I don't really like howย WWEย is pushing Alicia to become the most dominant Divas Champion ever, even though her ring skills are improving but she is horrible on the mic.

I was thrilled to have Melina return from injury and finally get another good feud going for RAW, but they didn't let the feud build. I was hoping for this match to happen at Night of Champions, but that seems when the rematch will be.

It looks to be a good match, and hopefully longer than the one on RAW, but not great.

Final Prediction: This could really go down the middle, as either way they will have at rematch at Night of Champions. But I'm gonna go with Fox retaining by cheating, then Melina winning the belt at Night of Champions.

Match 2: Dolphย Zigglerย (c) vs.ย Kofiย Kingston (Intercontinental Championship)

Possible Prediction: I was thrilled to seeย Zigglerย finally win the Intercontinental Championship, and I haveย a feeling it won't last long.

As much as I hate Vickie, she really gives Dolph heat. Withย Kofiย losing for the past month now, I find it REALLY hard to believeย they would make him lose toย Zigglerย again. I was hoping for a No Holds Barred match, especially with what has transpired.

This feud hasn't been something the fans haveย looked forward to onย PPV, simply because it was rushed in three weeks.

Final Prediction: It is possible Dolph could retain (which I want him to), but I think he won't. Look forย Kofiย to win back the title and haveย a rematch at Night of Champions.

Match 3: Big Show vs. Straightedge Society (3-on-1 Handicap)

Possible Prediction: I don't like this rivalry, even though both are funny and great on the mic. The only reason it's happening is because they wanted to get their names on the card.

I was hoping (I know, I'm hoping and whining a lot, don't hate me) that this would be a singles match, but it's mostly due to Punk getting surgery. So expect Punk to be limited.

Final Prediction: I was at first thinking theย SESย might pick up a win, but with all the fighting, I see Big Show becoming a hero and over

coming the odds. I predict forย SESย to argue, lose, and brake up following the match.

Match 4: Sheamus (c) vs. Randy Orton (WWE Championship)

Possible Prediction: I was kind of confused when Orton saidย Sheamusย has never beaten him, whenย Sheamusย beat him byย DQย at Royal Rumble AND RAW. Anyone else notice that besides me?

Orton is the last legitimate contender for the title with Cena feuding with Nexus, Edge and Jericho being heels, and Triple H out for the next few months. So why would he lose?

I am looking forward to this match, as they put on a great one at the Royal Rumble.

Final Prediction: Orton to win all the way. I likeย Sheamusย as champion, but with the addedย stipualtion, I don't want to see Orton lose again.ย Mizย could cash it afterSheamusย might win, but I would rather haveย him cash it in down the road.

Match 5: Kane (c) vs. Rey Mysterio (World Heavyweight Championship)

Possible Prediction: This build-up has been red hot, but I was really hoping for the Undertaker to be facing Kane instead ofย Mysterio. We haveย seen this match numerous times before, so it should be nothing out of the ordinary.

I'm expecting Undertaker to be involved some way, either haveย it be during or after the match. Kane's reign has been short, so I really don't want to see it end now.ย Mysterioalways winning, so can he spare complaining and let Kane get the lime light.

Final Predictions: If this Undertaker and Kane feud is going to take place, it has to be with the belt. Even if it means dropping the belt to Taker, its better and longer than dropping toย Mysterioย atย SummerSlam.

Match 6: The Nexus vs. Teamย WWE

Possible Prediction: This will probably be the main event, and with all the suspense going into it, it looks to be pretty good. I have personally enjoyed the Nexus angle, and I hope it doesn't stop here.

I am just going to assume Theย Mizย is going to be the final man, because they IS no one else at this point. If he is chosen, he will probably play a big role in betraying the team. The ending will probably beย Cenaย (HA!), Bret Hart, orย Miz.

Final Prediction: I'm predicting Nexus, cause wouldn't they look weak if they lost and they still do haveย contracts and a title shot. Someone will turn onย WWE, andย Cenaย will probably start a feud with them.
