10 Big WWE Predictions For The Road To WrestleMania 35
10. The Betrayal Finally Comes
Maybe this Shane McMahon/The Miz deal isn't leading to betrayal. Maybe there's nothing more to it than the simple, happy-clappy, feel-good story currently being fed to us on SmackDown. Maybe Miz's father finally telling his son he's proud of him on live television was the payoff, and Miz & Mac is a full-time tag team now.
... nah.
The sly look Shane McMahon flashed Miz and Miz Sr. as he raised their hands on this week's SmackDown was foreshadowing. This union isn't built to last. Sooner or later, one will turn on the other, they'll feud, and we'll get a WrestleMania booking out of it.
Keeping them together doesn't make sense, as Shane won't want to work a regular wrestling schedule at 49 years old and Miz isn't half as compelling a babyface as he is a heel. One will stick a knife between the other's shoulder blades. It'll likely come when they lose the SmackDown Tag Team Championships, with whoever takes the fall leading the blame, and we'll get another Miz vs. authority storyline that won't scrape the same heights as the Daniel Bryan programme, but should yield a decent match,
