Clash in Italy pick’em report

Hello everybody! It’s @TheMagnumDA with another installment of the Pick’em report. Tonight, we’re in Turin for the Clash in Italy – should be a spectacular card of wrestling. I’ve held the WOPC title since WrestleMania, but Colin is hot on my heels! This will be a straight up Pick’em – no confidence pool, and no bonus points. Who will come out on top after the Clash? Let’s find out right now.

ON WITH THE PICKS!

WWE Undisputed Championship
Cody Rhodes (c) vs. Gunther

Colin: Going into this match, I thought that Gunther would eventually win the title, but I have since changed my mind about it. Somehow, someway, Cody is going to retain the title today. Gunther’s time will come for sure, but it won’t be in Italy.

Magnum: Wow, it’s been confirmed that this will open the show. I think it will steal the show. I really don’t know what to expect, but this would be a hell of a way to start the show if Gunther were to win this match. The only concern is that result overshadowing the rest of the show. Either way, I’m not betting against Gunther…not on the roll that he’s on. Gunther wins this match.

The Rematch
Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar

Colin: This is a match that did not need to happen to be honest. Brock’s “retirement” at Mania was “spontaneous” and very well done. But now that he’s back, I’m looking forward to it because Brock is a freak athlete and I always enjoy his matches. Round two will go for Brock.

Magnum: It was a no-brainer picking Oba at WrestleMania. It’s a little more challenging to back him this time around. Couple of reasons – first, these things usually don’t end at Chapter 2. Second, I could see Lesnar now going to SummerSlam since he’s back. He probably won’t lose on the way there. For those reasons, I’ll take Brock – rubber match ahead!

WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship
Becky Lynch (c) vs. Sol Ruca

Colin: I am expecting a title change here. Sol cannot keep losing and losing and losing. Hopefully she’s cleared to compete and I think we will see an upset victory here. Go Sol go!

Magnum: This match, along with the Reigns/Fatu match, have had some rumors swirling around about potential injuries. Here, it’s Sol Ruca who got hurt at some point during the European tour…and it’s possible that this becomes the story of the match. Expect Becky to win quickly by submission. The Man retains.

WWE Women’s Championship
Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Jade Cargill

Colin: Jade has improved, a little bit, but her run with the WWE Women’s title was horrendous. Barely any title defenses and she did basically nothing. I am 100% sure Mami is going to retain today.

Magnum: I don’t have much doubt about who’s going to win this match. The question is…what happens afterwards? If Jade goes down here, I don’t see her getting one last shot…I see her going to the back of the line. But we’ll see. For tonight, Rhea retains.

World Heavyweight Championship – Tribal Combat
Roman Reigns (c) vs. Jacob Fatu

Colin: Just like Sol Ruca, there are reports that Jacob could be injured. If he is, there’s no way he’s winning this one…not that I had a doubt about him winning it from Roman before this close to WrestleMania anyway. Maybe a lot of interference in this match but Fatu will have to learn to acknowledge the Tribal Chief. Roman wins.

Magnum: As mentioned earlier, there’s speculation that Jacob Fatu is going into this match hurt. Will that affect the outcome of this match? I would imagine so. It’s my belief that Jacob is going to be no choice but to acknowledge his older cousin. Roman retains.

Okay everyone, that’s going to do it for us at the Pick’em report. Enjoy the Clash and we’ll see you next right here on Wrestling-Online. Until then, this is @TheMagnumDA signing off.
