Jim Ross Gives His Predictions For WWE Extreme Rules

Jim Ross has posted a blog giving his WWE Extreme Rules predictions on his official website, JRsBarBQ.com. Here are some highlights, you can check out the full blog at this link:

John Cena vs. Brock Lesnar: Will Lesnar's ring rust be a factor? It's been approximately 8 years since Brock has had a bout in a WWE ring. That could be an issue. Cena seems to feel cornered. Competitive people in this situation are dangerous. Is Cena intimidated by the legend and sheer physical skills of the former UFC Champion? If so, will that take Cena out of his game? Too many unanswered questions for me to feel comfortable about any prediction I make BUT I'm going with Cena to win somehow, someway. Ring rust, Lesnar's perceived over confidence, and Cena's sense of urgency fuel my guess.

CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho: Home field advantage should help Punk but it's no guarantee. Crowd will be rabid especially for this one. This could be a great show closer if called upon and I hope it's contested mostly in or around the ring. I've got Punk winning a heck of a match. However, remember that being at 'home' can be a distraction as it relates to family, friends, tickets needed, etc. just something to think about in this WWE Title bout.

JR also looks at Sheamus vs. Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton vs. Kane, you can check out the full article by clicking here.
