The Tombstone

The Tombstone



This time in the Tombstone, I am going to go ahead and make my Summerslam predictions. I might be right, might be wrong, but I'm going to call it the way I see it.

Well I'll start with the main event, for the World Wrestling Federation Title, Stone Cold Steve Austin meets the phenom of the WWF, the Undertaker. Now we did all see Kane and Undertaker come out together, beat up Mankind, etc. But, I'm not sure if I believe the conspiracy yet. Summerslam will have to come and go without Kane turning on the Undertaker (again) before I believe it. It seems (to me) to be too good to be true. On the other hand though, I do think that the Undertaker will become the World Champion, I'm just not sure how.

Now, on to the Intercontinental Title match. Triple H versus the Rock, in a ladder match. This one is obvious, Triple H walks away with the IC gold thanks to a little help from the, after Monday, very disgruntled Chyna. Rocky has held that title since December anyway, so he'll most likely lose it to the leader of D-Generation X at Summerslam.

The Tag Team Title Match, the New Age Outlaws vs. Kane and Mankind. This one is tricky. If Kane and Mankind can get along to fight as a team, they will keep the belts, if not, then the New Age Outlaws will claim the gold for a second time. Personally, I think Kane and Mankind will keep the belts.

Marvelous Marc Mero and Jaqueline vs. Sable and a mystery partner. Well everyone thinks that Sable's partner will be a member of the Oddities, and I just don't buy that. Sable and an Oddity could team up on any RAW, so I think she'll have a suprise partner, nothing obvious. I really don't know who her partner will be, but considering how hugely popular Sable is, she will win.

Jeff Jarrett vs. X-Pac. They were saying Monday that the loser will get his head shaved, so I'm going to have to say that X-Pac will lose that one. I don't see Double J coming out bald after bitching about how Austin does it in his interview when he returned to the WWF. Besides, I see X-Pac as more willing to take that kind of fashion risk. And with JJ's new attitude, you know he's going to get a few wins to push it.

Owen Hart vs. Ken Shamrock in that Lion's Den Match thing. Owen has Dan Severn helping him, so that could work for Owen, but I think that Ken Shamrock will come out on top, leaving it 1-1 after that Dungeon match last month at Fully Loaded.

I think that is all of the matches that have been announced, if I find some more, I'll add them before Sunday. Anyway, that's my call of Summerslam, and it will be one hell of a PPV.

That's it for this round....until next time....Rest In Peace! Or BURN IN HELL! Take your pick!
