World Fighter's Championship: Rainbow Dash vs. Starlight Glimmer -

Who I want to win: Though I still think Rainbow Dash could benefit more from a longer reign, Starlight has been my favorite part of Sublime since she first showed up. Her masterful promos, combined with her stellar win/loss record makes her a prime candidate for a long and beneficial World Fighter's Championship reign. As much as I think Rainbow could become the standard bearer of Sublime, I believe it would be in the best interest to allow Starlight to come away with the Championship. She is one superstar I wouldn't want to be beaten for the time being.

Who I think will win: Two back-to-back pay per view losses for the top star on Sublime may not be something Austin is a big fan of, but I don't think it will be a big deal, because putting the title on Starlight creates a top heel that Rainbow Dash and the many valiant faces of Sublime can chase after in hopes of claiming her gold. It may not be ideal for him, but I think he's built Starlight up so much for a reason, and that reason is for her to end the title reign of Rainbow Dash.

World Brawler's Champoinship: Underbaker vs. Blueblood -

Who I want to win: If Blueblood won, Octavia would undeniably be a happy camper. And when Octavia is happy, I am ecstatic. But even so, I don't want The Underbaker's reign of terror to end so soon. Yes, it's been four months, but I don't think that's nearly long enough for a competitor of his stature.

Who I think will win: Blueblood has been the only person to date to defeat The Underbaker, so it's been shown that he CAN win, but I just don't see it happening. The Underbaker will preserve his Championship reign. Even though Blueblood may lose, he'll still be the King of the Ring, and that's something to be proud of.

International Championship: Vinyl Scratch vs. Octavia -

Who I want to win: Octavia. Vinyl Scratch's title reign has been the most meaningless, boring Championship reign I have ever witnessed. Every week she holds that belt, she saps more and more prestige that it once had away from it. Sublime needs a proper Champion like Octavia in the WORST way...

Who I think will win: But even with all my nagging, I don't think it's going to happen. Vinyl Scratch will walk out of High Stakes with the International Championship, and if this is what happens, we may as well just rename the belt to The International House of Dumbasses. I know I DESPISE one month title reigns, but honestly, if Octavia were to wrestle the Championship away from her worthless former tag team partner, THAT would be a one month title reign I could FULLY get behind. *grumbles* But it should've never happened in the first place...

Sublime Tag-Team Championship: The Real Equestrians vs. Babs Seed and Sour Tooth vs. The Acolytes of Equality vs. Limestone Pie and Marble Pie -

Who I want to win: Vinyl Scratch isn't one half of the Tag Team Champs, so naturally, I want The Real Equestrians to retain. This is also because they're currently my favorite tag team on Sublime. It would definitely be weird if Babs Seed and Sour Tooth regained the titles, because then it would seem like they are playing hot potato with the damn things.

Who I think will win: For the reason above, I don't see why The Real Equestrians wouldn't retain their titles. It would be odd to halt their momentum after they've been so red-hot over the past few months. I realize that Redheart and Cheerilee (those names really need to be altered) are Starlight's new proteges, so it would make sense to give them some leverage, but they get enough leverage as the cronies of the World Fighter's Champion. They don't need these belts, at least not yet.

Who I don't want to win: Respectively, I enjoy their gimmicks (or personalities when you're talking about the show itself,) but Marble and Limestone, I feel, are getting this opportunity too quickly. I understand and respect that Austin wants them to make a big impact, because they haven't done ANYTHING since joining Sublime, but just last month they weren't even on TV. I won't pitch a fit if they win the belts, because again, at least they aren't Vinyl Scratch, but I think it would be too much too soon. Let them get some more wins under their belt instead of shoving them directly into this position. But that's just my opinion.

Fight for Your Right Ladder Match: Commander Hurricane, Night Glider, Colgate, Amira, Twilight Sparkle, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Maud Pie and Pinkie Pie -

Who I want to win: This is pretty difficult to choose, as I like everyone in this match (though some more than others.) You know, just for longevity purposes, I will give the nod to Commander Hurricane. For the past 6 months of Sublime, she's been one of my favorites, but she's definitely taken a backseat to many newer character that have been sprouting up. I hate to say it, but I feel she hasn't been as dominant as she once was, and I think that's a shame. She was on the VERY first episode of Sublime. So were Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle, I know, but I never was able to get behind them like I've gotten behind The Commander. She's never had a World Fighter's Championship match, and for good reason; she hasn't scored enough wins to get to that position. But I hope that changes at High Stakes. Whether she does it all on her own, or she uses her associates to help her get the briefcase, I would love to see her walk out of the pay per view as the Fight For Your Right contract holder.

Who I think will win: Up until this past episode of Sublime, my guess to win was Night Glider. But as the winner of the Wildcard Battle Royal, and with a new attitude to boot, Pinkie Pie is my new choice. She was gone for a few months, nursing her concussion, and I believe that's made her a more unstable and aggressive fighter. She may have Twilight fooled (or maybe not, since she's so smart,) but I know that something sinister is lurking inside Pinkie Pie's mind, and that nature may come out when she is surrounded by dozens of ladders. She will use them to mangle her opponents, and then she will use it to capture that briefcase, and if Rainbow Dash is still Champion coming out of the pay per view, she may want to watch out VERY carefully for her "friend." I'm also going to add another prediction. I believe that just before Commander Hurricane closes in on victory, Private Panzer will emerge and take her out of commission. I don't think their feud has come to an end just yet.

Who I don't want to win: Like I said, I'm a fan of everyone in this match, but I suppose I will lump this onto Sweetie Belle. She is, I think, the least worthy candidate of the briefcase, because simply put, she's accomplished the LEAST out of all these women. At least Apple Bloom has had some high profile matches, like that Steel Cage match with Babs Seed, but I can't recall Sweetie Belle having any significant matches or feuds. Even Maud has her own Championship, but Sweetie? It just wouldn't be right if she was the victor, I feel. But if she DOES win, I won't have any problem with it.

Brawl for it All Ladder Match: Hoity Toity, Damien Sandow, Dr. Caballeron, Big MacIntosh, Pipsqueak, Uncle Wing, Steamer, Caramel and Checkmate -

Who I want to win: This match isn't quite like the one above. I could care less about the likes of Steamer and Caramel, and Pipsqueak doesn't do a whole lot for me, but the rest are cool with me. Well, I don't think Big Mac winning would be a good idea either. I just can't imagine a Champion who doesn't...ya know...talk. How are you supposed to sell a feud if all you say is "eeyup" and "nope"? It would just be pretty stupid. I don't mind the gimmick, but it just doesn't work as a main event. This is also hard to choose, but I guess I will go with Dr. Caballeron. I can't see him beating The Underbaker cleanly, but with an automatic Championship shot whenever you desire, it would be a lot easier to take that title away from him. He came up short in the King of the Ring tournament, but I wouldn't mind the Doctor of Dance getting his jazzy hands on that briefcase.

Who I think will win: This is even HARDER to tell, because most of the guys in this match aren't really doing anything special. They haven't been booked strongly. Checkmate is also in a tag team, and I can only wonder what Davenport would do if he was victorious. Would it start a feud between the two? That sounds intriguing, but I do enjoy them as a team, so it's not the way I would go. Hmm...man, this is seriously difficult. So many of these dudes are lower card athletes, and I just can't see them making such a high jump up the card. I am going to stick with my guns, and since the winner of the men's Wildcard Battle Royal didn't change my mind like Pinkie Pie did, I will say that Dr. Cabelleron will be victorious. That doesn't happen to often, where the "who I want" and "who I think" categories are equal, but hey, why not?

Who I don't want to win: There are quite a few people I wouldn't want to win. Steamer hasn't done shit, Big Mac I don't think would make a good Champion, Pipsqueak is kind of meh, and even though I enjoy his gimmick probably the most out of the lot, Uncle Wing, also, hasn't accomplished anything. But one man puts all the rest to SHAME, and that is fucking CARAMEL. He hasn't done a FUCKING THING, and I mean NOTHING. Not ANYTHING. At least the rest of the men I mentioned have picked up some wins, but I think the tag team match that qualified Caramel for this ladder match was his FIRST victory, and he only won because he was on the most powerful team. I would admit, it'd be kind of funny to see this absolute loser come away with the briefcase, cash it in on the mighty Underbaker, and hold the title for a whopping 3 years, but it would also be the absolute DUMBEST outcome you could envision in your brain, BAR NONE. So yeah...FUCK THAT. Caramel doesn't even have a GIMMICK. On Sublime he was just an awkward little niggerbutt, and that doesn't translate to "World Champion" for me. Gee, I'm sure I'm ALONE in that regard. What a joke it would be if he were to come out the winner...
