Wrestlemania 35 Predictions: Who will win, who will lose, and what it all means

#3 Buddy Murphy will retain his cruiserweight championship.

Friends turned rivals; Tony Nese, rear, will challenge Cruiserweight champion Buddy Murphy at Wrestlemania 35

In what could be the sleeper match of the night, Buddy Murphy is set to defend his title against his, well, against his buddy Tony Nese, who won the right to be number one contender in a tournament.

These two men, like basically the entire 205 Live roster, are incredibly gifted athletes and ring technicians who can go move for move, hold for hold, against anyone in the world. Murphy has a slight experience edge but the two men are as evenly matched as any you will find in pro wrestling.

While we are sure Nese will be coming to fight, our prediction is that Buddy Murphy will walk out of Wrestlemania 35 with his title intact. The WWE has been building up Murphy for some time, and he's truly calmed down the tumultuous 205 Live division with his dominance.
