Predicting The Quality Of All 13 WWE WrestleMania 39 Matches

2. Fatal 4-Way Women's Tag Team Match

Conversely, these matches actually only work when everybody knows where to be and when.

Provided the WrestleVotes report is accurate - and the women's Fatal 4-Way match is Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez Vs. Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler Vs. Natalya & Shotzi Vs. Carmella & Chelsea Green - the scope for botching is high.

Shotzi has one in her in seemingly every match. She simply isn't meant for the rigid confines of the WWE system. Elsewhere, what is a bug in her work could be a feature. So what if she's sloppy? Her daredevil quality is compelling, but on the main roster, she is forced to over-think everything. She is far better when she's in the expressive moment forbidden on Friday nights.

This will also lack badly in heat; Ronda Rousey is nowhere near the star she once was, but since this is nominally the case - and WWE needs to keep her sweet accordingly - her winning the match is a formality.

This could fall apart well before the boring inevitable happens.

Predicted Star Rating: ★★½
