Vengeance Preview

The WWE is really starting to pick up with the return of DX and ECW. Here's a look at my Shames-o-matic predictions for their next Raw ppv event this Sunday:

John Cena over Sabu - In head to head matchups ECW has been coming out ahead largely due to the fact that they have to come across as being a strong brand or otherwise they won't last long. However, since Cena just lost to RVD I can't see him losing again unless of course there's outside interference which is almost a certainty. Cena via DQ.

Randy Orton over Kurt Angle - Angle looks unstoppable in ECW since choke holds are legal but I have a feeling that Orton will come out ahead since the match is under WWE rules and he needs a win to cement his place as a main eventer on Raw.

Mic Foley over Ric Flair - This once could go either way since there's so much real life tension between the two but I have a feeling that Foley will win with help from Edge and Lita.

Edge over RVD - This one is for the WWE Title and as such it's obvious that Edge will bring it back to Raw. Or is it? I have a feeling that Edge could win and jump ship to ECW ensuring that the title stays there. Either way Edge wins.

Carlito over Shelton Benjamin and Johnny Nitro - Benjamin makes a good champion but it wouldn't suprise me if Carlito wins since he's finally over with the fans after an icy reception at first. Nitro has no shot.

Fake Kane over Kane - Hasn't officially been added yet to the card but I have a feeling that it will. And when it does Kane will lose to his former masked version allowing him to come back with that very same mask back on. As in he was fighting himself and his darker side won.

DX over the Spirit Squad - DX is back with HHH and HBK reuniting. Even though it's a 5 on 2 handicap match they should win easily. Although it's possible new members will help them I strongly doubt it.

Umaga over Eugene - Yet another squash match for this Somoan Joe rip off.
