SummerSlam 2024: B/R Wrestling Staff Picks for the Big Event
With SummerSlam 2024 just around the corner, the B/R Wrestling staff have weighed in on some of the hotly anticipated matches, offering their predictions and analysis.
Damian Priest vs. Gunther: A Judgment Day Betrayal?
One of the most intriguing matchups on the card pits Damian Priest against the reigning Intercontinental Champion, Gunther. Our staff member believes Gunther is the favourite, citing the growing tension within Judgment Day as a key factor. Finn Balor's frustration with Priest, culminating in a recent loss to Gunther at the King of the Ring tournament, suggests a potential betrayal is brewing. This could lead to a dramatic shift in the group's dynamics, with Balor potentially aiding Gunther's victory. The staff member is willing to wager £50 on the "Ring General" to emerge victorious.
Sami Zayn's Intercontinental Championship Reign: A Triumphant Success?
The Intercontinental Championship has been held by Sami Zayn for several months, and the staff member believes his reign has been nothing short of a success. While some might argue that Zayn wasn't the primary focus of his run, that was precisely the intent. With Zayn as a well-established babyface champion, WWE was able to elevate the credibility of contenders like Chad Gable and Bron Breakker. Both performers have significantly risen in prominence, taking on key roles on Raw, with Zayn's ability to guide their development playing a crucial role. The staff member awards Zayn's reign a solid eight out of ten, highlighting its positive impact on other talents.
This is just a glimpse into the B/R Wrestling staff's predictions for SummerSlam 2024. With a stacked card filled with compelling storylines and high-stakes matchups, the event promises to be a thrilling spectacle for wrestling fans around the world. Stay tuned for more analysis and predictions from the B/R Wrestling staff in the days leading up to the event.
