7. Dana Brooke Bosses Bayley

There are a number of prevailing yet contradictory pieces of logic which dictate the outcome of this match. On the one hand, Dana most recently claimed victory over Bayley going into the event, which in accordance with WWE's even-Steven (or, if you prefer, level-Neville) booking, should guarantee the underdog go over come Sunday. Conversely, what is usually the most bafflingly asinine outcome tends to be the one WWE go for - in this case, a decisive Dana victory. As a wrestling journalist, cynicism is entrenched, so I have to favour the latter.

Whilst having Bayley lose when the odds are stacked against her is precisely what got her over in NXT, the crucial difference is that she was losing in great matches. Dana is incapable of giving Bayley one of these, so there's no upside to her inevitable victory. Instead, Dana will continue to be terrible - and unpopular - whilst her opponent's stock gradually falls.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
