Tiffany Stratton vs. Jade Cargill vs. Chelsea Green vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Lash Legend

The injury to Rhea Ripley has necessitated the introduction of an interim WWE Women’s Championship. On Sunday, five female competitors will battle for this coveted position on the SmackDown roster. Among them are Tiffany Stratton, Jade Cargill, Chelsea Green, Charlotte Flair, and Lash Legend. This ladder match is expected to be one of the highlights, showcasing the competitors’ willingness to do whatever it takes to claim the title.

Prediction: Chelsea Green secures the Interim WWE Women’s Championship.

Penta (c) vs. Chad Gable for the Intercontinental Championship

The Intercontinental Championship is one of the WWE’s most prestigious titles. Historic matches such as Bret Hart vs. Curt Henning in 1991 set a high bar for this championship. Penta, the reigning champion since March, faces Chad Gable, whose recent apology to Luchadores elevated his profile. Gable, competing in his home state, pushes for a memorable performance.

Prediction: Chad Gable clinches his first Intercontinental title.

Danhausen vs. Dominik Mysterio in a Human Monies on a Pole Match

Danhausen’s matches always bring an element of humor. In this face-off, Dominik Mysterio is determined to retrieve money paid for a “curse” from Danhausen. Expect entertainment as the pole holds the cash Dominik wants back, with Danhausen’s popularity sure to resonate with the Minneapolis crowd.

Prediction: Danhausen emerges victorious.

Sami Zayn vs. Finn Balor

This match determines the No. 1 contender for the Undisputed WWE Championship. Sami Zayn’s prior nine-day reign ended with a loss to CM Punk, while Finn Balor has been on a winning streak. The fight is balanced with Zayn’s drive against Balor’s established title-winning history.

Prediction: Sami Zayn secures a win.

Trick Williams (c) vs. Baron Corbin for the United States Championship

Baron Corbin marked his return to WWE by targeting the United States Championship. After interfering in a previous match between Trick Williams and Carmelo Hayes, Corbin presents a significant challenge. Despite this, Trick Williams defends his title, prepared for potential interference by Hayes seeking retribution.

Prediction: Trick Williams retains the United States Championship.

Roman Reigns (c) vs. Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship

Roman Reigns has dominated the summer, holding onto the World Heavyweight Championship. Seth Rollins, a persistent rival, brings past tensions to their latest confrontation. Their shared history from The Shield adds depth to this high-stakes match. Anticipate signature moves, such as a chair shot, as Rollins attempts to dethrone Reigns.

Prediction: Roman Reigns maintains his championship status.
