8 HUGE WWE Clash Of Champions 2017 Predictions You Need To Know

8. Stay Hyped?

Perhaps the only folk with less investment in the Zack Ryder/Mojo Rawley storyline than the audience are the WWE writers themselves.

An extremely protracted split ostensibly in order to afford it the focus it deserved (?), the eventual severance between the pair passed with barely a whisper. That's particularly good going for two of the loudest and most obnoxious performers in company history.

The win here, as if it even matters, goes to Mojo Rawley, but it's hard to see where either goes from here. Rawley's push already looks D.O.A if there's somehow not time on a WWE Network-era pay-per-view for the first contest between a separated tag team, whilst Ryder should probably start perhaps channel some of his salary into a high-interest ISA rather than the latest rare Brutus Beefcake action figure to land on eBay.

There's been less of the annual company talent purges in recent years, but the axe nonetheless still swings, and if either man wants to be a winner in 2018, an almost-impossibly huge performance is required in this empty-arena (or arena-emptying) scuffle.
