8 HUGE WWE Royal Rumble 2023 Predictions You Need To Know

6. Bianca Belair (c) Vs. Alexa Bliss

On the go-home Monday Night Raw, Alexa Bliss yet again angrily implied that it was her and her alone Bianca Belair needed to be worried about at Saturday's Premium Live Event.

She was of course referring to Uncle Howdy, or Bray Wyatt, or Lilly, or all of the above depending on where that character's at currently. 'The EST' has shown confusion but no fear in the face of the various gimmicks and upside down bees' a*ses, but that's triggered a rage in Bliss for undermining her. All good and well, but Belair is being the intelligent babyface here - Howdy was there in person last week, the upside down bee's a*se has been tormenting Bliss since November's Crown Jewel, and the Lilly doll could come back WWE find another box in the warehouse that needs shifting.

At best, the relationship between Alexa and her narrative past is a strange one, and perhaps that will feature here. She left behind the Wyatt Cinematic Universe at WrestleMania 37, and what if Howdy specifically takes his revenge here. The guffawing Slash-a-like could appear atop a box-like-structure and leak goo from his head just as she did two years ago. It'd close that loop and open up the next darkened door on the Road To WrestleMania.

Winner - Bianca Belair
