WWE Super Show-Down Predictions: Who Will Win in Australia?

WWE's Super Show-Down in Australia will feature 10 matches, and the results will have short-term ramifications for both Monday Night RAW and SmackDown Live.

The show is this Saturday, Oct. 6. While most of the card seems predictable, there are some very intriguing matchups that even our group of wrestling marks had trouble picking winners for.

We've done our best to correctly predict the winners of Super Show-Down (which means we'll get them completely wrong). If video is more your thing, you can watch the predictions over on our Facebook page. Here's every WWE Super Show-Down match with our team's picks.

THE UNDERTAKER VS TRIPLE H

For the last time ever, Undertaker will take on Triple H. Everyone seems to think the Undertaker will continue his dominance of Trips on Super Show-Down, but Phil seems to think having Shawn Michaels in his corner will get Triple H the victory.

CEDRIC ALEXANDER (c) VS BUDDY MURPHY - CRUISERWEIGHT TITLE MATCH

Cedric Alexander has had the Cruiserweight title since WrestleMania, and Bob doesn't see that changing with this show. However, Phil and Rocco believe the hometown boy, Buddy Murphy, is ready to get the strap.

Bob - Cedric

Phil - Buddy

Rocco - Buddy

THE NEW DAY (c) VS THE BAR - SMACKDOWN TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH

This feud has just begun and we all can see it continuing after Super Show-Down, with New Day narrowly getting the victory to retain their Tag Team Championships.

Bob - New Day

Phil - New Day

Rocco - New Day

NAOMI & ASUKA VS THE IICONICS

Another case of the hometown wrestlers picking up the win. We all feel it'll be a perfect moment for Peyton Royce and Billie Kaye (The IIconics) to get a much-needed victory in Australia.

Bob - IIconics

Phil - IIconics

Rocco - IIconics

BOBBY LASHLEY & JOHN CENA VS KEVIN OWENS & ELIAS

Probably the easiest match to predict: it's hard to see how John Cena loses his first match back since WrestleMania. Elias and Kevin Owens are almost "loss-proof" meaning they can handle a defeat.

Bob - Cena/Lashley

Phil - Cena/Lashley

Rocco - Cena/Lashley

DANIEL BRYAN VS THE MIZ - WWE #1 CONTENDERS MATCH

It was tough to choose a winner here, as either wrestler could come out on top and become the new number one contender for AJ Style's WWE Championship.

Bob feels its Daniel Bryan's time, while Rocco and Phil believe the story of Miz getting over on Bryan using heel tactics will continue.

Bob - Daniel Bryan

Phil - Miz

Rocco - Miz

AJ STYLES (c) VS SAMOA JOE - WWE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH/NO DQ

AJ Styles has had an impressive run as WWE Champion, and Bob and Phil feel it will continue. With WWE 2K19 coming out next week with AJ as the cover star, it's easy to see Styles going over.

Rocco, however, feels Samoa Joe needs the victory and will pick up the belt here.

Bob - AJ

Phil - AJ

Rocco - Joe

CHARLOTTE VS BECKY LYNCH (c) - SMACKDOWN WOMENS TITLE MATCH

Becky Lynch won the SmackDown Women's title less than a month ago, so none of the crew believe she's losing it to Charlotte in Australia. Whether Becky get herself disqualified or the two have a double countout, Lynch will walk out still the champ.

Bob - Becky

Phil - Becky

Rocco - Becky

ronda bella vs riott squad ssd
WWE

RONDA ROUSEY & THE BELLA TWINS VS THE RIOTT SQUAD

Rocco believes The Riott Squad are prime to defeat Ronda Rousey and The Bella Twins in their six-woman tag match. Bob and Phil think he's crazy.

Bob - Rousey/Bellas

Phil - Rousey/Bellas

Rocco - Riott Squad

THE SHIELD VS THE DOGS OF WAR

The main story of Monday Night RAW has been whether or not Dean Ambrose will turn on his Shield brethren. Bob and Phil don't believe it'll happen in Australia, but Rocco seems to think the Dogs of War will somehow get the upper hand.

Bob - Shield

Phil - Shield

Rocco - Dogs of War
