Bandai Namco's highly anticipated new Dragon Ball game, Dragon Ball FighterZ, is shaping up to be one of the first major releases of 2018. It launches in the US and Europe on January 26, and it's being developed for PS4, Xbox One, and PC by fighting game experts Arc System Works, the studio behind the Guilty Gear and BlazBlue series. On top of its fluid and flashy gameplay, one of the most exciting aspects of Dragon Ball FighterZ is its roster, which features some of the most recognizable characters from the anime series. 21 fighters have been confirmed so far, including mainstays Goku, Vegeta, and Frieza, as well as some overlooked villains like Nappa and Captain Ginyu. The game also introduces at least one brand-new character, known as Android 21, who plays a central role in its original story mode. While the roster is already stacked with some of Dragon Ball's most notable characters, there are still some fighters who have yet to be revealed. Bandai Namco hasn't confirmed how many will be available from the start, but the publisher did announce that eight will be introduced as DLC following the game's release. We don't know which other Dragon Ball characters will appear in the game, but there are many who deserve to a spot on the roster. Click forward to see the 12 character we still want added to Dragon Ball FighterZ.
Beerus
The God of Destruction, Beerus, is one of the most powerful and intimidating characters in the Dragon Ball universe--so much so that even the Eternal Dragon Shenron cowers in his presence. Despite his slender physique, Beerus possesses unfathomable strength, as evidenced by how easily he defeated Goku in his Super Saiyan 3 form with a simple flick in Dragon Ball Super. Beerus has since become a regular companion of the main characters, making him a natural choice for a spot on the Dragon Ball FighterZ roster.
Broly
While Broly has never been directly acknowledged in the Dragon Ball Z anime or manga, he appeared as a major villain in several films and has become one of the most recognizable characters from the series. The Legendary Super Saiyan is nearly unstoppable thanks to his unbridled strength and hulking stature--traits that would make him a formidable character in Dragon Ball FighterZ. That Broly has regularly appeared in other Dragon Ball games should bode well for his chances of showing up in Arc System Works' title.
Dabura
The demon king Dabura was the evil wizard Babidi's right-hand man, playing an instrumental role in freeing Majin Buu from his imprisonment. Before he was betrayed by Babidi and Buu, Dabura faced off against the Z Fighters and proved to be a formidable foe thanks to his dark powers, like the ability to petrify foes with his spit. Those tricks, coupled with the ability to conjure up weapons like his Darkness Sword in the middle of a fight, would make Dabura a unique addition to the Dragon Ball FighterZ roster.
Dodoria and Zarbon
Frieza's top two henchmen, Dodoria and Zarbon, played an instrumental role during the Namek Saga, serving as powerful foes for the heroes to contend with as they raced to find the Namekian Dragon Balls. Because of this, either would make a great addition to the Dragon Ball FighterZ roster, though it seems more likely that only one would be playable, with the other appearing briefly to assist with certain attacks, as is the case with Captain Ginyu and the other members of the Ginyu Force.
Dr. Gero
A former researcher in the Red Ribbon Army and the creator of the Androids, Dr. Gero is a brilliant and sadistic scientist. While he has yet to be confirmed for Dragon Ball FighterZ, he seems all but guaranteed to appear given how largely his specter looms over the game's story mode. His creations, particularly Android 16, play a central role in the narrative, and much has been made of the fact that Android 21's intellect is on par with Gero's. This all seems to point to Dr. Gero himself appearing in some capacity during the game.
Master Roshi
Goku's childhood mentor may have since been eclipsed by his former pupils, but as Dragon Ball Super proves, the wily Turtle Hermit can still hold his own in a fight thanks to his deep bag of tricks. What Master Roshi lacks in strength compared to the other fighters, he more than makes up for in experience. The veteran martial artist knows a wealth of special techniques, like the Evil Containment Wave and Thunder Shock Surprise, that can help him turn the tables on a more powerful opponent.
Mr. Satan
The reigning World Martial Arts champion, Mr. Satan is renowned far and wide for his superhuman strength and skill--at least to his fans. In reality, Mr. Satan is comically inept, and he's only held on to his championship through a combination of wits and sheer dumb luck. Unlike most other characters in Dragon Ball, Mr. Satan can't fly, nor can he even use energy attacks, but that's why he would make such an interesting addition to the Dragon Ball FighterZ roster.
Raditz
Goku's older brother, Raditz, was the first major villain introduced in Dragon Ball Z, arriving to Earth ahead of his fellow Saiyans, Nappa and Vegeta, and handily defeating Goku in battle. While he only appeared in the series for a very brief time, he was nonetheless an important character in the Saiyan Saga, if only because he revealed the truth behind Goku's origins and set the stage for a much bigger battle. Raditz may pale in comparison to the other Saiyans now, but he was a memorable villain who deserves a spot on the Dragon Ball FighterZ roster.
Vegito
Like their sons Goten and Trunks, Goku and Vegeta have fused together on several occasions, and depending on the method they use, they become either Vegito or Gogeta. Both are extraordinarily powerful fighters worthy of a spot on the Dragon Ball FighterZ roster, but as Vegito played a major role in both Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball Super (while Gogeta appeared in a film and the non-canonical Dragon Ball GT), he seems to be the more likely of the two fused warriors to make the cut.
Videl
Mr. Satan's daughter and Gohan's eventual wife, Videl is an accomplished martial artist in her own right. Unlike her bumbling father, Videl is a genuinely talented fighter who helps the police fight crime in Satan City, and she's one of the few supporting characters who's mastered how to fly. Despite that, she can't use energy attacks, so her moveset would have to emphasize close-range fighting. While that may sound like a disadvantage, it would help set her apart from all the Saiyans and supervillains that make up the roster.
Uub
Before Goku destroyed Kid Buu, he made a wish that Buu would be reincarnated so the two could fight again some day. That reincarnation would turn out to be Uub, a brilliant young martial artist from a poverty-stricken land. While Uub would go on to be major character in the disliked Dragon Ball GT, he would nonetheless make a good addition to Dragon Ball FighterZ. As the reincarnation of Buu, Uub is the strongest human in the series, and his eventual fusion with Innocent Buu (who is confirmed for the FighterZ roster) bestows him with some unique abilities that would make him a fun character to play.
Kid Goku
Ever since he was a young boy, Goku has displayed incredible strength and proficiency in martial arts, which would make his younger self a great addition to the Dragon Ball FighterZ roster. Along with his signature Kamehameha, Goku knew a variety of different techniques as a kid that he rarely uses anymore, like the Solar Flare and Afterimage techniques, which would make his moveset unique from his adult counterpart. He could also wield his childhood weapon the Power Pole to help compensate for his shorter reach.

As the Marvel/Netflix show The Punisher proves this week, you don't need superpowers to be a superhero. While the likes of Superman, Spider-Man, and Wonder Woman are famous for their amazing superhuman abilities, there are plenty of heroes who have nothing but incredible training, high-tech gadgetry, and access to alien artifacts and body enhancing serums to help them. OK, that's quite a lot, but at least they didn't have to be bitten by a radioactive spider to get their abilities. Let's look at some of the best non-superpowered superheroes.
Black Widow
Natasha Romanova is a highly-trained Russian agent who defected to the West and was recruited by Nick Fury and SHIELD to use her abilities for the side of good. She's a superspy and master of disguise with unbelievable fighting skills. Powers not needed.
Blue Beetle
There have been three Blue Beetles over the course of many decades, but none have had their own superpowers. While the second version (Ted Kord) was simply equipped with a superpowered suit, the first and third Beetles (Dan Garret and Jaime Reyes) drew their powers from a piece of mysterious technology known as the Scarab. And although Dan just had to touch it, poor Jamie had it fused his spine.
Green Arrow
Like Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark, Oliver Queen is a super-rich playboy who eventually found that fighting crime is a better use of his resources than drinking and womanising. His prowess as a hunter and martial artist and his skills with a bow are the rival of many more superpowered peers. He also has some super cool arrows, including gas and explosive tipped bolts.
Hawkeye
If DC has Green Arrow, Marvel has Hawkeye. Like Oliver Queen, Clint Barton fires arrows with scary accuracy and incredible speed but, again, it's all through training. He's also one of the only other heroes able to throw Captain America's shield just as well as Cap himself, and he wears purple better than any other superhero.
Batman
Batman is of course, the most famous powerless hero of them all. Of course, it helps when you are a billionaire under the cowl, with an unlimited budget to design and develop some of the coolest crime-fighting gadgets ever. However, the best Batman stories have always shown Bruce Wayne's vulnerabilities too, from the aging hero of The Dark Knight Returns to his bruising, spine-snapping encounters with Bane.
Iron Man
Iron Man is the closest that the Marvel universe gets to Bruce Wayne. But Tony Stark is no shadowy vigilante--his identity isn't even a secret. But his enormous wealth has allowed him to build a super-powered suit that does pretty much everything. Flying, super strength, high-tech weaponry--Stark's got it all.
Silver Sable
Silver Sable is one of the more ambiguous characters in the Marvel universe, and a frequent ally/adversary to Spider-Man. A mercenary also known as, er, Silver Sablinova, she is a highly trained expert in most forms of martial arts. She also wears a Kevlar costume and is armed to the teeth with a variety of guns and bladed weapons. Don't mess.
Captain America
Despite his incredible strength, agility, and endurance, Steve Rogers technically has no superpowers. The Super-Soldier serum that he was given has pushed his body to the outer limits of human potential, and while many of his athletic feats are clearly impossible in our world, within the Marvel universe they are still count as just about achievable by a human. Also, we all love Cap, so he's in.
Katana
It's one thing to be amazingly skilled with a sword--it's another when that sword contains the soul of your dead husband. But that's the fate of poor Tatsu Yamashiro, whose trusty blade, the Soultaker, was used to kill her husband Mateo and was soon possessed by his spirit. Despite this, Katana's weaponry skills and general martial arts prowess ensured that she has been a key part of both the Birds of Prey and The Outsiders.
Nick Fury
SHIELD boss Nick Fury may not have any powers but with some of the world's greatest heroes at his disposal, he doesn't need any. He also has the coolest eyepatch in the history of comic books, and in the MCU gets to be played by Samuel L Jackson. Admittedly, Fury's aging process has been slowed down by the use of the Infinity Formula, but who can blame him for wanting a few less grey hairs?
Batgirl
There have been four Batgirls to date, and while none possess superpowers, all are highly trained and every bit the match for DC's other famous Bat-themed superhero. Barbara Gibson is her most famous alter ego, but Betty Kane, Cassandra Cain, and Stephanie Brown all kicked serious Gotham criminal ass.
Bucky Barnes/The Winter Soldier
Like his good pal Steve Rogers, Bucky doesn't have any powers. What he does have is years of physical training and intense Soviet brainwashing, plus a supercool bionic arm. As The Winter Soldier, Bucky fought on the side of the Russians, before being brought under the wing of Nick Fury and his old buddy Steve.
Mockingbird
Avenger and SHIELD agent Barbara "Bobbi" Barton is another recipient of the Super Soldier serum, which she was given after sustaining a deadly injury. But even before that she was a highly trained combatant, with bone-crunching abilities with batons and bo-staffs. Plus, she has a PhD in biology!
Robin/Nightwing
Bruce Wayne's legendary partner Dick Grayson might not have any powers, but he learned from the best. After many years as Robin, Dick took to the streets of Gotham as Nightwing when he quit the Batcave to pursue a solo career.
The Punisher
Frank Castle takes the vengeful vigilantism of Batman to the next level. While Bruce Wayne aims just to hurt his enemies and leave them for the cops, the Punisher has no interest in such niceties. If you're deserving of his wrath, you deserve to die. And possibly get tortured first. Castle obviously has an incredible arsenal of weaponry, but he has also trained his body and mind to a degree that he can withstand pain and any psychic or telepathic attacks that his enemies might employ against him.

Choosing a Race That Suits Your Playstyle
With the Switch port of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim finally out, there are a wealth of new players jumping into the classic adventure for the first time. As those who've played the game know, choosing a race for your character is an important decision. Each race sports its own distinct characteristics, skills, and playstyles. To help you decide which one is right for you, we've compiled general details on each. Skyrim is out now on Nintendo Switch. For more on how it fairs on Nintendo's convertible console, you can read our The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim on Switch review. Critic Kallie Plagge says it's "one of the best Switch ports currently available." If you're curious the game's Amiibo support, here are all the items that unlock when you scan a Zelda Amiibo. The game was first released in 2011 for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC, before coming to PS4 and Xbox One in October 2016 through the Special Edition. A version of the game for the PS4's PlayStation VR is out now.
Argonian
Argonians make for great thieves and assassins, possessing Skill bonuses in lockpicking, sneaking, and light armor. As an added perk, they also have the ability to breathe underwater. And with a high resistance to disease, Argonians are a great fit for those looking to play a resilient, stealthy character that can navigate environments in ways that others cannot.
Breton
If you're interested in spellcasting, Breton is a solid choice. They sport a 25% Resistance to Magic and a proficiency at most kinds of magic. Their Dragonskin ability is incredibly useful, as it allows them to absorb 50% of magical damage inflicted upon them and convert it into Magicka. In addition, Breton receive small bonuses in Conjuration and Alchemy.
Dark Elf
Dark Elves offer a great balance of stealth and magical talent, which makes them ideal as thieves or assassins. While they easily fall into these roles, their proficiency in offensive magic shouldn't be underestimated; Dark Elves wield the highest starting statistic in Destruction spellcasting. This race is recommended if you enjoy a mix of stealth, magic, and swordplay.
High Elf
Thanks to their increased Magicka and Magicka regeneration traits, High Elves make for great starting Mages. As one of the most gifted races in the arcane arts, High Elves are a prime choice if you're looking to commit fully into spellcasting.
Imperial
Imperials sport a broad skill set that makes them a great fit for those interested in creating their own hybrid class builds. They're well rounded, but their lack of focus could cause issues if you don't have a plan. Imperials also sport an interesting perk that makes them more gold, as well as an ability that allows them to stop enemies from attacking for 60 seconds.
Khajiit
The Khajiit's proficiency in stealth makes them exemplary thieves, assassins, and archers. With their claws, they make for strong hand-to-hand combatants, as they get a natural +15 attack bonus. Khajiit also have the ability to see in the dark, which is of great use when sneaking up on or avoiding enemies. Be wary; Khajiit encounter a fair amount of racism from NPCs.
Nord
Nords are one Skyrim's native races; their strength and natural resistance to frost magic makes them perfect as warriors, barbarians, or scouts. The race sports a distinct starting ability called Battlecry, which causes enemies to flee in terror. In addition, Nords receive a skill bonus when wielding heavy two-handed weapons.
Orcs
Orcs are well suited for warrior roles, as their natural skills align with physical combat; the variety in their skill bonuses also allows them to become incredibly powerful. It helps that Orcs can go into Berserker Rage, an ability that allows them to deal double damage and take half damage from enemies.
Redguard
Redguards possess a notable prowess in combat with their high proficiency for using one-handed weapons. Their poison resistance helps to withstand lethal poisons, while their Adrenaline Rush ability allows for amplified stamina regeneration. While Redguards make for good defensive warriors, they can also wield Alteration and Destruction magic, which makes them solid hybrid warrior/mage candidates.
Wood Elf
Wood Elves are ideal for anyone looking to specialize in archery; they possess the highest starting statistic for the skill. With a resistance to both poison and disease, they're viable candidates for anyone looking to be a thief, scout, or assassin. And they can even command animals to do their bidding if arrows aren't enough to do the job.

Roaming Dragonborn
The Nintendo Switch port of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim gives longtime fans a chance to explore the world of Tamriel on the go. However, it also provides newcomers the opportunity to experience Skyrim for the first time. The game's world is immense, and at times, the path to success isn't clear. To help equip you with the knowledge needed to survive Skyrim on Switch's early runnings, we've gathered 13 essential beginner's tips. Skyrim is out now on Nintendo Switch. For more on how it fairs on Nintendo's convertible console, you can read our The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim on Switch review. Critic Kallie Plagge says it's "one of the best Switch ports currently available." If you're curious the game's Amiibo support, here are all the items that unlock when you scan a Zelda Amiibo. The game was first released in 2011 for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC, before coming to PS4 and Xbox One in October 2016 through the Special Edition. A version of the game for the PS4's PlayStation VR is out now.
Commit And Stick By Your Character Choice
Skyrim's character creation process rewards those who know exactly what they want, so it's important to have an idea about the kind of character you want to play before starting the game. When picking your character's race, make sure to commit to one with the skills, powers, and effects that suit your playstyle and the characteristics you want. For instance, if you want to want to fit the mold of a Thief class, it's best to choose Khajiit, as its base sneaking skill is the highest of all the races.
Freedom Is Fun, But Get To Whiterun First
Skyrim is a massive game that opens up rather quickly; with such freedom right out the gate, it's easy to start running around taking on side quests and doing whatever you please. However, if you're just starting the game, we recommend following the main quest line until you get to Whiterun. This way you'll at least have the "Shout" ability, a place to store your stuff, and a general understanding of your environment.
Accessing Amiibo Functionality
In the Switch version of Skyrim, you can use various Amiibo to get loot chests. These chests contain things like arrows, a random piece of armor, and food. If you use any Zelda Amiibo, you have a chance to get one of three Zelda-themed items: Link's blue tunic from Breath of the Wild, the Master Sword, and the Hylian Shield. To use an Amiibo, go to the Magic menu, then go to Powers. The Amiibo Power will be unlocked from the start. Select the Amiibo power to equip it, then cast it in the world using R. Once you've cast it, tap an Amiibo to the NFC reader to get a chest.
ABS (Always Be Sneaking)
Sneaking is an incredibly valuable skill to develop early on, as it's a useful way to get a preemptive strike on enemies; it also makes difficult missions later on in the game much easier. However, your chances of sneaking successfully is determined by your Sneak skill level, and the only way to improve it is by sneaking as much as possible. We recommend doing so whenever you get the chance, as the higher your proficiency in this skill, the better off you are in most combat encounters and sticky situations.
Not A Thief? Steal Anyway
Stealing may be discouraged in the world of Tamriel, but it's often worth taking whatever you can, as it rewards you potentially valuable items and equipment. Note that even if an item is marked red (indicating that taking it is theft), you still have the chance of stealing it without alerting the attention of nearby guards or hostiles; just make sure you're properly hidden from their sight. And remember: viewing red-marked possessions is not a crime, but taking them is.
Save, Save, Save Often
This might seem incredibly obvious, but it's always in your benefit to save your game as often as possible. Skyrim gives you the power to save anywhere, anytime you want, so make use of it. You never know what might happen when exploring the world or a dungeon; a particularly powerful creature could very well kill you out of nowhere, potentially taking from you hours of progress.
Visit The Guardian Stones Sooner Than Later
The Guardian Stones are special objects found along the road southwest of Riverwood, and northwest of Helgen near the river. There are three stones: the Mage Stone, the Thief Stone, and the Warrior Stone. Each allows you to level up the skills associated with that class 20% faster. It's possible to access the Guardian Stones directly after the game's introduction, so it's recommended you seek them out sooner than later. Be wary; you can only choose to activate one of the Guardian Stones at a time; though, you're allowed to switch between the stones at any time if you're looking to level up or utilize the respective skills each represent.
Remember, Fast Travel is Available From the Start
Like other open world games, Skyrim gives you the ability to fast travel to locations you've visited on the map. But it's worth noting that you can fast travel as soon as the game begins, well before the game tells you that you can do so.
Third-Person View Is More Than Just a Camera Angle
While Skyrim is primarily played from a first-person perspective, you can actually switch it to a third-person view. This can be a useful way to better your awareness of your surroundings, especially in the forest areas early on where wild animals can easily jump you if you're not careful.
It's Good To Sleep In-Game (And In Real Life Too)
As you explore Skyrim's vast world, you'll come across the ability to sleep in a bed. While this advances the passage of time in-game, it also grants you a "Well Rested" buff that increases all skill gains by 10% for eight hours. Keep in mind, this buff can only be triggered if you sleep in a bed you own or a bed at a local Inn.
Horse Thief
Can't afford a horse in the beginning? Just steal one! It won't stay with you, but it's a free and fast means of transportation you can take advantage of until you build up enough money to purchase a horse later on.
Smithing, Enchanting, And Alchemy Exist; Be Mindful Of Them
There are a lot of different optional skills in Skyrim, such as Smithing, Enchanting, and Alchemy. While it isn't mandatory to fully understand or utilize them early on, it's important that you at least pay attention to them. Be mindful of the weapons and items you obtain, and consider keeping certain ones for when you eventually need them to practice these skills. It's certainly worth your time in the long run, as utilizing these skills together can eventually allow you powerful perks, such as Mages casting for 0 magic in any school, Warriors doing massive damage, and Thieves becoming even sneakier.
Buy Training, Get Your Money Back
When you reach Whiterun, you'll find NPC followers who ask to join you in your adventure. Some can help train you in a particular skill as long as you have money to pay for it. For instance, a follower named Faendal can train you in archery. But there's a handy exploit you can use to take advantage of their training. First, pay your follower to train you. After they've done so, ask to take a look at their inventory and simply retrieve the money you gave them. Rinse and repeat this process until you've maxed out the skill.

Sony just released and sent us its new Skyrim PlayStation VR bundle. Not only does the package come with a VR version of Bethesda's action RPG, which is also sold separately for $60, but it comes with a slightly updated design that that allows you to plug its included earbuds directly into the headset. Unlike the first PSVR headset, this newer CUH-ZVR2 model also has a new processor unit that provides a high-dynamic range pass-through for users with HDR TVs, so owners don't have to disconnect it to enjoy HDR content. This bundle is out now and retails for $450. Let's take a look inside the box.
The package contains an HDMI cable, USB cable, AC adaptor, AC power cord, PSVR headset, stereo headphones, processor unit, and printed materials.

It's the one time of the year where the Raw and Smackdown go toe-to-toe in the ring to see which show is superior. That's right, it's Survivor Series, coming to PPV and the WWE Network on Sunday, November 19. This year's event is taking place at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas at 7 PM ET/4 PM PT, with the Kickoff Show starting at 5 PM ET/2 PM PT. It's looking like Survivor Series is going to be one incredible night, as every major WWE title will be on display that evening, but only one championship will be on the line. The afternoon and evening will have eight matches--as of this writing--and one of which will be on the two-hour Kickoff Show starting two hours prior. Here is the full match card and our predictions, and make sure to come back on Sunday for our live coverage.
Enzo Amore (c) vs. Kalisto - Kickoff Show
(For the Cruiserweight Championship) Once again, Enzo faces Kalisto for the Cruiserweight Championship. This feels like deja vu. The only real difference between this time compared to the last is that Amore has Drew Gulak backing him up, and Gulak has been utterly entertaining to watch. Because of this, I think Gulak is going to be a big factor and help Amore retain the title. Our Prediction: Enzo wins after Drew Gulak interference
The Shield vs. The New Day
This match has a special place in my heart. I'm not particularly a fan of The Shield, but having them go up against Smackdown's The New Day makes so much sense. Both 3-men stables are incredibly over on their respective shows, and this will be the first time The Shield has competed together at a PPV since 2014. As much as I love New Day, Reigns, Ambrose, and Rollins fighting together is a no-brainer for the win. Our Prediction: The Shield wins
The Miz vs. Baron Corbin
The Miz makes any rivalry worth while, just by jumping onto the mic. The Intercontinental Champion will be taking on Baron Corbin, Smackdown's United States Champion. Even if you don't like Corbin, The Miz's segments on Raw have completely hyped this match up. Maybe it's the fanboy in me, but The Miz is going to take this one. Our Prediction: The Miz wins
Alexa Bliss vs. Charlotte
On this past Tuesday's episode of Smackdown, Charlotte beat Natalya for the Smackdown Women's Championship, which means she'll be facing Raw's Alexa Bliss in a champion vs. champion match. It was such a good move for WWE, as both of these stars will put on one hell of a match. This is a tough call, and even though I love Alexa Bliss, I'm giving the edge to Charlotte, but this will be a close one. Our Prediction: Charlotte wins
The Bar vs. The Usos
While on their own, both of these tag teams are phenomenal, the tag champ vs champ match is completely over-shadowed by everything else on the card. It's hard to get excited about this match when everything else has been built up a bit better. For no real reason, we're giving the win to The Bar because they don't raise the bar, they are the bar. Our Prediction: The Bar wins
Team Smackdown vs. Team Raw - Women's Survivor Series Match
Completely ignoring the background colors WWE used in its promo image, five Raw superstars are taking on five Smackdown superstars, one of which is unknown as Charlotte has been moved out of the match. It's hard to give Smackdown a fair chance of winning when Raw has Asuka, and she is a beast. I don't see anyone eliminating her, and because of this, Team Raw will get the win. Our Prediction: Team Raw wins
Team Smackdown vs. Team Raw - Men's Survivor Series Match
Both Raw and Smackdown hand-picked their biggest superstars--that aren't currently title holders--to find out which men's roster is superior, and both teams have management getting into the act. Shane McMahon representing the Smackdown brand and Kurt Angle and Triple H representing Raw. While having John Cena join Smackdown is a pretty big deal, Raw's team seems more stacked and therefore, will get the win. Our Prediction: Team Raw wins
Brock Lesnar vs. AJ Styles
WWE made a great decision having Styles beat Jinder Mahal a couple weeks back, so Styles could face Lesnar at Survivor Series. Prior to that, the main event wasn't anything to get too excited about, but now that Styles is in the mix, I could actually see this not only being a great match but Lesnar losing. Call me crazy, but I'm giving the win to Styles. Our Prediction: Styles wins
