I am not watching Backlash because the Undertaker is not in a match.
Jack Swagger vs Christian: I couldn't care less about this one - I hope Christian wins this time.
Jeff Hardy vs Matt Hardy: I've heard that Jeff is quitting WWE, which made me really happy as I hate him a lot. His recent look is like a joker (he probably tried to imitate the legendary joker from the Batman but did a pathetic job of it), and I detest the push he received despite violating the WWE Wellness Policy and taking drugs. I was so happy when he lost at Wrestlemania, though I had "expected" him to win due to the fan-following he has with the kids and girls (the ones who know nothing about wrestling). I hope he loses again but I think that the kids would want to see him win this time, so perhaps Jeff will win. But he might lose another match again which will be his last, before he leaves the WWE (please do!)
Santina on Khali kiss cam: Santina will probably be exposed as Santino because his/ her hair will fall off. That would mean that Khali will get enraged and give a chop to Santino. Beth Phoenix will also be enraged with the fact that it was Santino who was pretending to be Santina. Eventually the crowd would want to see Khali and Beth kiss, and that is probably what will happen. The strongest male wrestler and the strongest female on the roster will kiss. Am not sure whether there is a face turn for Beth or a heel turn for Khali here but I just hope that it happens this way. Whether Beth breaks off with Santino later and starts a relationship with Khali or not remains to be seen.
Chris Jericho vs Ricky Steamboat: I am so impressed with the fact that Steamboat can still wrestle as he used to decades back. He has not lost touch at all despite not being in the ring since so many years, as he proved at Wrestlemania. He was the best performer at the show, keeping the Undertaker and Shawn Michaels aside. I actually thought that he would win the match but it didn't happen that way because the segment was all about Mickey Rourke, who disappointed me a lot. I hope this come-back for Steamboat only means one thing - he will win this time.
CM Punk vs Kane: Considering the losing streak Kane has had ever since he turned "heel" (bad-character), I don't see him winning this. He lost to Punk on a weekly show but then beat him in a tag-team match at Superstars, which probably gives the WWE another excuse to make him lose this time. It would hurt Punk's momentum as holder of the money-in-the-bank (MITB) if he loses, so I think Punk will win it. However, I hate this.... I wish so much that Kane would win! Kane was the most dominant and destructive force in the late 1990s much like Undertaker was in the early and mid 1990s, and he struck terror in the hearts of everyone including Stone Cold, Rock, Hulk Hogan, DX. He kicked a** all alone in the ring and cleaned house, and now he loses to guys like Rey Mysterio, Kofi Kingston and CM Punk? This rated PG-13 era sucks and I hate it that the WWE mould the results for the kids. Kane was a perfect choice to win the MITB because he can be made to defeat anyone and make it look real, and because his tweener-character allows him to feud with anyone. I hope they made this match about the MITB and made Kane win it from Punk. Hey, it might happen in the future if both of them stay on Smackdown!
John Cena vs Edge: I hope Cena loses, because it will allow Edge to bring the title back to Smackdown. Another option is that Cena will win the match but then Punk will cash in his MITB to win the belt and bring it back to Smackdown. But that might not happen because Punk is still a "face" (good-character), and he might cash it later in his home-town of Chicago (if there is a PPV happening there). I'm going with Edge winning this and then getting into a rivalry with Punk later who will win the belt.
HHH, Batista and Shane McMahon vs Randy Orton and 2 idiots: Randy Orton should have won at Wrestlemania itself. Its bad for the business if the Royal Rumble winner does not win the belt at Wrestlemania (that is what happened the last 2 times) because the fans will lose interest in the Rumble. It will not be able to retain its significance. Randy has to win the match this time. Who isn't sick of seeing HHH win the belt 16751239871384765327654214987 times? The only non-wrestler there is Shane, so perhaps Randy will RKO Shane for the win. It is possible that Shane/ Batista turn on each other because they have knocked eath other out or argued a few times in the last few weeks. I don't know if anyone will turn heel or not - I would be happy if HHH turned on them after losing the match and became heel. It will refresh his character a bit. Later on, he can reunite with Shawn Michaels to form DX and turn face again. I am hoping to see a Randy Orton vs Batista rivalry for the title after this.
