This is going to be a huge show.
Lucha Bros vs Adam "Hangman" Page & Kenny Omega
The Lucha Bros have to win this and they will. Page I think will turn heel here even though it seems obvious, I think it will be great long term storytelling. I personally don't like non-tag teams winning against established tag-teams. Maybe every once in a while to foreshadow / signify a tag-team break up. But I don't think that's what is happening here. We're going to get to know the backstory on "Hangman" soon enough.
Cody & Darby Allin vs Butcher & The Blade
I really expect Butcher and The Blade to win considering my statement on established tag-teams. If Butcher and The Blade lose this then they're already done - they'll lose so much steam before getting it. I just don't know how it'll happen.
Darby also said he wants his match from Cody **if** they win, well... what happens if they lose? Where does Darby Allin go? This match intrigues me the most. Considering Cody also believes in the statement that established tag-teams should never lose against thrown together Tag-Teams, this match really intrigues me.
The Young Bucks vs SCU
Yes. I think the Young Bucks take the titles here and I think it's actually an audible from their original plan. I think the Bucks are going to grab the belts to help legitimize the Tag-Team titles especially after beating Santana and Ortiz. I don't see PNP interrupting the match or anything, possibly so, there's so much shit that can happen.
Don't think many people care for SCU holding the titles and their short reign would come to an end under only a single title defense (I believe?). The Young Bucks winning the titles would be fine with starting a new tag-team rivalry that hopefully legitimizes new Tag-Teams.
Kris Statlander vs Britt Baker
I think Britt Baker wins here due to Kong / Brandi interrupting the match asking Statlander to join and when she doesn't she gets attacked. If there's a clean finish tho, Kris Statlander takes the victory, and Brandi comes out afterwards and blah blah. Not really interested in this match, I think Statlander should win because I think she's much better in the ring, but Shida should be #1 contender or at least fighting for it. Whatevs, hopefully this match is really good, and I really want Riho Lesnar to drop the belt or get her butt on T.V.
Chris Jericho vs Jungle Boy
There are so many ways this can go. It's only 10 minutes so I think it's going to end fucky either way. Either Mox is going to get involved or Inner Circle is going to get involved and get Jericho pinned. I don't know if Jericho's first pin should be against Jungle Boy even if it is a fucky-finish. This match is going to be a joy and having it non-title might be the writing on the wall that Jungle Boy gets the win. Who knows.
Overall tonight is going to be so much damn fun and I'm excited to see what comes next.
