9 WWE Backlash 2018 Results Predictions

5. The Princess Can Count On The Commonwealth

In a perfect world, Charlotte would obliterate Carmella in the time it takes to count a pin, but look outside: this ain't no perfect world. Having said that, the Princess of Staten Island, for all her glaring in-ring deficiencies, is excellent theatre, and a Honky Tonk title run isn't the worst thing in the world in terms of pushing the often anodyne SmackDown women's division to the fore.

It does mean quality matches are off the table for the forseeable, mind. Carmella's first defence this Sunday won't trouble any asterisk keys, but that's not really its remit. Instead, it'll serve to consolidate the champ's heel credentials, as she escapes with the belt thanks to outside assistance from a couple of irritating Aussies.

Prediction: The women's strap gets the ferry back to Staten Island after The IIconics trip Charlotte up again.

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.
