Hello everybody! This is @TheMagnumDA with another installment of the Pick’em report! Tonight, the WOPC Pick’em Championship is on the line, as Colin and I will battle with Confidence Pool rules in effect – 4 Points for the pick we’re most confident about, and 1 point for the least confident. Who will go into Wrestlemania as the WOPC Champion? Let’s find out right now!
ON WITH THE PICKS!
World Heavyweight Championship Match
CM Punk (c) vs. Finn Bálor
Magnum: Man, it’s so hard to go against CM Punk here. He’s in his hometown, and he’s got the big Mania match already in place with Roman Reigns. Finn could certainly turn everything upside down with a victory, but it’s not going to happen. Punk wins, 4 points.
Colin: I don’t think there will ever be a time where a face CM Punk will lose, let alone his title, to someone else in Chicago. That would be a kamikaze move. I have zero doubt that Punk is winning this one. There’s just no other way. 4 points.
WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship
Becky Lynch (c) vs. AJ Lee
Magnum: The only thing I know for certain…is that this match is happening again at WrestleMania, and it will likely be the blowoff of their feud. I feel like AJ could win here, and Becky could get her win back at Mania. So I’ll go with AJ Lee and I’ll put 3 points on it.
Colin: If they’re extending this to WrestleMania, I don’t want AJ to win here. I can totally see Becky cheating to win this one, giving Lee a proper case for a rematch at WrestleMania. I think it will have more effect like this, but what do I know? Becky wins, 2 points.
Women’s Elimination Chamber Match – Winner Challenges for Women’s Championship at Wrestlemania XLII
Tiffany Stratton vs. Rhea Ripley vs. Kiana James vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Asuka
Magnum: Now things are really getting interesting. This was an extremely challenging call up until last night, when RHIYO lost the tag team titles to the Irresistible Forces. Although I expect great performances by Kiana and Raquel, I see that the path is clear for Rhea to challenge Jade Cargill for the WWE Women’s Championship at Mania. She’s the most over person in the company, and it’s not even close. Give me Rhea to win this match and challenge Jade for the title, 2 points.
Colin: Jade Cargill has been a fail as a champion in my opinion. She looks the part, but they’re protecting her way too much because she’s still green. How many title matches did she have since winning it?! Anyway, it’s hard not to pick Rhea for this. She will probably beat Cargill too. I’d say Rhea for 1 point.
Men’s Elimination Chamber Match – Winner Challenges for WWE Championship at Wrestlemania XLII
Cody Rhodes vs. Logan Paul vs. LA Knight vs. Je’Von Evans vs. Trick Williams vs. Randy Orton
Magnum: Here’s another match where things seemed a bit unclear until Smackdown – almost everyone in this match has a likely dance partner at Mania (Trick vs. Sami, Orton vs. Black, and Knight vs. Lesnar are rumored). It’s hard to go against QB1 in this situation. I’m going to take Cody, but I’m only putting 1 point on it because ANYTHING could happen in this match.
Colin: Of all the six people in the match, I’m sorry, but I don’t see anyone main eventing a WWE title match at WrestleMania unless it’s Cody. I still don’t believe it’s going to be a one-on-one match eventually, but I’m picking Cody and 3 points.
That’s going to do it for the Pick’em report – thanks for checking us out! We will see you at Wrestlemania in April!! @TheMagnumDA signing off.
