Seth Rollins vs AJ Styles
| Superstar | Odds |
|---|---|
| Seth Rollins | |
| AJ Styles |
The decision was made by WWE to establish a new singles title following the dominant run Roman Reigns has enjoyed as Universal Champion. The World Heavyweight title will be the flagship gold on Raw moving forward, and the inaugural champion will be crowned on Saturday.

Seth Rollins is a hot favorite in the betting, as he competes for an inaugural title for the third time in his career. We find it challenging to look past the Architect from claiming victory this weekend, but it should be a barnstorming clash.
Pick
Brock Lesnar vs Cody Rhodes
| Superstar | Odds |
|---|---|
| Brock Lesnar | |
| Cody Rhodes |
The second of three main events will see a rematch from Backlash, as Cody Rhodes and Brock Lesnar clash for the second time in just over a month. Rhodes landed a huge win over the former UFC Heavyweight champion in their previous encounter, but he is the outsider to repeat that feat in Saudi Arabia.

However, it could be worth siding with the American Nightmare, as a big summer of matches could await Rhodes, as he bids to get back into the title picture.

Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens vs Roman Reigns & Solo Sikoa
| Result | Odds |
|---|---|
| Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens | |
| Roman Reigns & Solo Sikoa |
The final main event match will be for the Undisputed Tag Team Championships. Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens won the gold at WrestleMania, ending the record-breaking reign of The Usos. The big story heading into the match this weekend is the division within The Bloodline, with Undisputed world champion, Roman Reigns, opting to win back the titles for the faction himself rather than have the Usos challenge.

— Wrestle Ops (@WrestleOps) January 29, 2023
We expect a scrappy ending to this match, with the former champions costing Reigns and Sikoa, leading to a match between all four members of The Bloodline at Money in the Bank.
