Kalisto has impressed in the last few months, and there's certainly potential for him to still go further. As for Ryback, the image change has been refreshing, and the heel role suits him better. With this being the pre-show, and likely the first match up, the safe bet is on Kalisto retaining. It starts Mania on a positive note, the high flyer can pop all his big spots, and then catch Ryback in a roll up. That finish will leave things open if they want to continue the feud. For the purposes of starting Mania on a high note, Kalisto retains this Sunday. Winner: Kalisto
