WrestleMania 38 Matches: Predictions For Stone Cold, Brock Lesnar, Pat McAfee, WWE Card

WWE’s biggest event of 2022 is set for Saturday and Sunday at AT&T Stadium with WrestleMania 38 taking place over two nights. Stone Cold Steve Austin, Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns and Ronda Rousey highlight the card.

Stone Cold’s return might be the most highly anticipated part of WrestleMania 38, even though the WWE legend doesn’t have an official match. Austin is scheduled to be Kevin Owens’ guest on “The KO Show” in a segment that is likely to turn physical.

Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns will unify WWE’s two world championships. Rousey will have her first WrestleMania match in three years. Becky Lynch will defend her Raw Women’s Championship. Broadcaster Pat McAfee has a match on the card, as well.

Here are predictions for every match on the WrestleMania 38 card.

WrestleMania Saturday

"The KO Show:" Stone Cold Steve Austin confronts Kevin Owens

WWE has been intentionally vague as to what will happen between Austin and Owens. It isn’t a match and there won’t be a pinfall, but you can be sure that the segment ends with Austin delivering a stunner to Owens. The two could fight for a few minutes as Austin gets more physical than he has since his last match 19 years ago.

SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair vs. Ronda Rousey

WWE likely had Rousey return at the Royal Rumble with the intention of putting the title on her. This could be just the first of two or three matches between Rousey and Flair.

Prediction: Ronda Rousey

Raw Women’s Champions Becky Lynch vs. Bianca Belair

Belair has to win the title after Lynch embarrassed her in 26 seconds at SummerSlam. Lynch won’t be hurt by a defeat, considering she hasn’t lost a title match since becoming the champion in the WrestleMania 35 main event three years ago.

Prediction: Bianca Belair

Edge vs. AJ Styles

This might end up being the best match on WrestleMania Saturday. It could go either way, but it probably makes the most sense for Styles to get revenge on Edge’s attacks over the last month.

Prediction: AJ Styles

Rey & Dominik Mysterio vs. The Miz & Logan Paul

Paul’s appearance at WrestleMania 37 ended with the influencer getting knocked out, and this match should end in a similar fashion.

Prediction: Rey & Dominik Mysterio

Seth Rollins vs. Mystery Opponent

It’s been a poorly kept secret that Cody Rhodes will face Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 38. Rhodes should win his WWE return match after wrestling as one of the top stars in AEW.

Prediction: Cody Rhodes

Drew McIntyre vs. Happy Corbin

By mentioning that Corbin hasn’t lost recently, WWE is setting up McIntrye to end Corbin’s winning streak. WWE likely still has plans for McIntyre to re-enter the main event scene in 2022.

Prediction: Drew McIntyre

SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos vs. Shinsuke Nakamura & Rick Boogs

This is not the time to end The Usos’ record-setting SmackDown tag title reign. It will take a more popular tag team than Nakamura & Boogs to dethrone The Usos.

Prediction: The Usos

King Woods & Kofi Kingston vs. Sheamus & Ridge Holland

After Holland accidentally injured Big E, it would only make sense for the rest of the New Day to get their revenge at WrestleMania. It should be Holland, not Sheamus, who takes the pinfall.

Prediction: King Woods & Kofi Kingston

WrestleMania Sunday

WWE Champion Brock Lesnar vs. Universal Champion Roman Reigns

Reigns has already come up short against Lesnar twice at WrestleMania. One of the most dominant champions in WWE history, Reigns isn’t quite ready to lose the belt. A win over Lesnar will solidify Reigns even more as an all-time great heel, potentially setting up a WrestleMania 39 main event with The Rock.

Prediction: Roman Reigns

Johnny Knoxville vs. Sami Zayn

Celebrities that take on a heel at WrestleMania are a safe bet to win their match. Maybe some of Knoxville’s fellow “Jackass” cast members interfere and help him get the victory.

Prediction: Johnny Knoxville

Raw Tag Team Champions RK-Bro vs. The Street Profits vs. Alpha Academy

Randy Orton and Riddle are among the most popular stars on “Monday Night Raw.” They should hold the belts until the summer when they are ready to break up and feud against one another.

Prediction: RK-Bro

Women’s Tag Team Champions Queen Zelina & Carmella vs. Sasha Banks & Naomi vs. Rhea Ripley & Liv Morgan vs. Natalya & Shayna Baszler

WWE has been teasing a breakup between Zelina and Carmella. It’s never a bad idea to put the championship on Banks, who has been underutilized over the last year.

Prediction: Sasha Banks & Naomi

Pat McAfee vs. Austin Theory

WWE has high hopes for Theory. McAfee is an announcer and not a member of the active roster. It would make no sense for Theory to take the pinfall. It should be a competitive and entertaining match based on what McAfee has done in NXT.

Prediction: Austin Theory

Bobby Lashley vs. Omos

With the way WWE has been building up Omos, he can't lose his first WrestleMania singles match. A Lashley loss can be explained by the injury he suffered in January.

Prediction: Omos
