![]() ![]() ![]() Prediction: Neville retains the WWE Cruiserweight Championship. While that would be a WrestleMania-worthy match, I get the feeling we might be headed toward a Cruiserweight Open involving everyone.Īs for Neville and Gallagher, these two have never clashed one-on-one in WWE, so I have no doubt that the match will be extraordinary, especially if they are granted the event's opening slot. The only other individual in the division who comes close to being on Neville's level is Austin Aries, who is due back in the ring any day now. Granted, Jack Gallagher is a tremendous talent who is worthy of holding the gold down the line, but the game of hot potato with the strap needs to come to an end. With that all being said, for WWE to cut his hot streak short at this moment would be foolish. He has always been an exceptional wrestler, but now his promos are equally compelling as well. Neville showed some signs of how good of a heel he could be during his NXT run, but he has exceeded all expectations in this new role over the last three months. It might be a while before the cruiserweight competitors hit their stride, but the best thing WWE has done with the division up to this point has been positioning Neville as its lead heel. Prediction Akira Tozawa and Rich Swann win.īefore Neville returned to Raw as part of the cruiserweight division late last year, the cruiserweight division was struggling to establish its own identity. ![]() I expect the babyface duo to go over here, but look for more matches similar to this one to take place en route to WrestleMania 33 with the cruiserweights colliding in some sort of multi-man matchup. From there, he can finally beat Kendrick one-on-one before setting his sights on the strap. Putting him in the title picture anytime soon might be premature, but he can start working his way toward the top of the division by first reigning supreme in this match. Tozawa seems to be an exception, though, and he would benefit from stacking up as many wins as possible going forward. Truth be told, it ultimately doesn't matter who wins this match, if only because the cruiserweights tend to trade victories every week, regardless. In fact, it's odd Swann hasn't announced his intentions to attempt to regain the Cruiserweight Championship he never received a rematch for. Granted, adding Rich Swann and Noam Dar to the mix might make the match more exciting from an in-ring standpoint, but that feud has hardly been furthered since it started three weeks ago. His program with The Brian Kendrick has also been booked well so far, hence why it's strange they aren't facing off in singles competition on the Fastlane Kickoff match. Over the last month, Akira Tozawa has made quite the impact on WWE's cruiserweight division and has quickly cemented himself as one of the most charismatic competitors the division has to offer right now. Prior to the Raw-exclusive event, let's look at which Superstars will reign supreme and build momentum ahead of WrestleMania 33, as these are the predictions that matter most.
