10 Early WWE Survivor Series 2017 Card Predictions

10. Cruiserweight Title: Neville (c) Vs. Mustafa Ali

Neville's run as 'King Of The Cruiserweights' has been excellent. His heel turn was a masterstroke, and hasn't just unlocked previously unforeseen levels of charisma within the Geordie, but also made him one of WWE's most compelling performers in 2017. Sure, 205 Live has struggled to build and maintain an audience, but that's no fault of the current champion.

Having successfully regained the Cruiserweight Title at SummerSlam, and defeated Akira Tozawa in a rematch this past Tuesday night, Neville is short of potential opponents. He has already ran through most of the division, and while he definitely deserves another lengthy reign, 205's tiny, over-stretched roster is about to be exposed.

Neville has wrestled Mustafi Ali thrice in 2017, but they haven't embarked upon a lengthy feud like those 'The King' recently had with Tozawa and Austin Aries. He's one of only a handful of cruiserweights WWE can pair Neville with that wouldn't feel totally overdone, and while they could easily throw someone like Gran Metalik at the champ, Ali looks a safer bet. They'd probably have an excellent match, but let's be honest: it'd be hidden on the Kickoff Show.
