The inaugural AEW Redemption pay-per-view will emanate live from the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada on Sunday, July 26, and it very well could be a clean sweep for the Canucks on the card.Kenny Omega is set to defend his AEW Men's World Championship against TNT Champion Kevin Knight, Cage & Cope will also put the AEW Men's World Tag Team Championship on the line, and Chris Jericho is resurrecting "The Painmaker" for his No Holds Barred Match against Tommaso Ciampa.The most intriguing match-up, however, may be Thekla's battle with Willow Nightingale for the AEW Women's World Championship. Will there be any major upsets? Will there be any surprise appearances? You've got questions, we hopefully have some answers.Rick Ucchino, Zack Heydorn and Blake Lovell are back to give their final thoughts, predictions and manifestations ahead of Sunday night's big show in Montreal, which has a special start time of 7 p.m. ET (6 p.m. CT).For more in-depth analysis on each match, check out our AEW Redemption predictions video above.Double Chain Match: Bang Bang Gang vs. The DogsBang Bang Gang vs. The Dogs | All Elite WrestlingJay White will be wrestling his first pay-per-view match since late 2024 when he teams up with Juice Robinson to battle The Dogs on Sunday. The Switchblade's AEW career has been upended by injuries, but he still has all the skills to be a major player. Now that he's finally healthy, his ascension up the card should continue at AEW Redemption. Barring some surprise interference from Gabe Kidd, The Bang Bang Gang will put The Dogs down in Montreal.Predictions:Rick Ucchino: Bang Bang GangZack Heydorn: Bang Bang GangBlake Lovell: Bang Bang GangDeath Riders vs. The Young BucksWill Ospreay and Jon Moxley vs. The Young Bucks | All Elite WrestlingWe all honestly hate that this match is taking place, and it has nothing to do with the talent themselves. Will Ospreay and The Young Bucks both need to continue building momentum ahead of All In London. A loss for Matt and Nick Jackson could take them out of tag title contention, while Ospreay already has his world title opportunity secured. That leads us to believe that Mox will be left holding the "L" on Sunday, resulting in some tension amongst The Death Riders.Predictions:Rick Ucchino: The Young BucksZack Heydorn: The Young BucksBlake Lovell: The Young Bucks6-Way Ladder Match to become No. 1 Contender for the AEW International Championship6-Way Ladder Match | All Elite WrestlingWith all due respect to the other four gentlemen in this match, two of whom are still unknown to the general public, this is a two-horse race. A "Speedball" Mike Bailey victory would create an awesome feel-good moment for his hometown Montreal crowd, but AEW just made a big investment by signing Jack Perry to a contract extension live on AEW Dynamite. We are split on the outcome of this one, which will make it all the more hilarious when someone else wins it.Predictions:Rick Ucchino: "Speedball" Mike BaileyZack Heydorn: Jack PerryBlake Lovell: "Speedball" Mike BaileyAEW National Championship Match: Mark Davis vs. Andrade El IdoloMark Davis vs. Andrade El Idolo | All Elite WrestlingWe've reached our first title match of the evening, and there is an excellent chance that the AEW National Championship changes hands on Sunday. "How you know?" Plain and simple, Andrade is too hot right now not to belt up. This man needs to add some gold to his attire ahead of All In London, where a match-up with a hopefully healthy MJF would not only pay off their story, but help elevate the National Title in the eyes of the AEW audience. Predictions:Rick Ucchino: AND NEW!... Andrade El IdoloZack Heydorn: AND NEW!... Andrade El IdoloBlake Lovell: AND NEW!... Andrade El IdoloTBS Championship Match: Hikaru Shida vs. Maya WorldHikaru Shida vs. Maya World | All Elite WrestlingMaya World has been on a meteoric rise over the past several weeks, but patience is going to have to be a virtue with the "It Girl." Shida's reign as the TBS Champion is not even a month old and should not come to an end after only two successful title defenses against Harley Cameron and Queen Aminata. The play should be for Athena to cost Maya her shot at gold on Sunday, leading to the student ending her mentor's historic ROH Women's World Title run at All In London.Predictions:Rick Ucchino: Hikaru ShidaZack Heydorn: Hikaru ShidaBlake Lovell: Hikaru ShidaNo Holds Barred: "The Painmaker" Chris Jericho vs. "The Psycho Killer" Tommaso CiampaChris Jericho vs. Tommaso Ciampa | All Elite WrestlingWhile the No Holds Barred stipulation does provide some protection for Tommaso Ciampa, for the sake of truly establishing his Psycho Killer persona, he needs to bring the pain to "The Painmaker" in Montreal. While Jericho is the slight betting favorite according to those sites that set pro wrestling odds, and we all think he's going to earn a 50-50 split with Ciampa in front of his fellow countrymen, Rick is attempting to manifest a different outcome. Predictions:Rick Ucchino: Tommaso CiampaZack Heydorn: Chris JerichoBlake Lovell: Chris JerichoAEW International Championship Match: Kyle Fletcher vs. BandidoKyle Fletcher vs. Bandido | All Elite WrestlingBandido continues to be one of the most underrated in-ring performers in all of professional wrestling, and it's a near guarantee that he's going to put on a heck of a show with Kyle Fletcher, but the result of this match will never be in doubt. Tony Khan hasn't truly shocked us with a Bandido outcome since February last year when he lost his ROH Men's World Title opportunity to Chris Jericho. We do not anticipate the pendulum swinging back the other direction at Redemption. Predictions:Rick Ucchino: Kyle FletcherZack Heydorn: Kyle FletcherBlake Lovell: Kyle FletcherAEW Men's World Tag Team Championship Match: Cage & Cope vs. The Death RidersCage & Cope vs. Claudio Castagnoli & PAC | All Elite WrestlingIt's Cage & Cope, they're in Canada, and they're defending the AEW Men's World Tag Team Championship against a team not named The Young Bucks. We'd love to offer some more hard-hitting analysis than that, especially with Claudio Castagnoli and PAC involved in this one, but Cage & Cope are going to retain their titles. There's no question that the match will be good, but the real intrigue will begin after the closing bell. Will someone like the Motor City Machine Guns debut or not? Predictions:Rick Ucchino: Cage & CopeZack Heydorn: Cage & CopeBlake Lovell: Cage & CopeAEW Women's World Championship Match: Thekla vs. Willow NightingaleThekla vs. Willow Nightingale | All Elite WrestlingGiven the overwhelming predictability of the assumed main event match-up, Tony Khan should give heavy consideration to having the ladies close the show for the first time in company pay-per-view history. Willow Nightingale told our Jon Alba that she's determined to finally win the big one on Sunday, but Thekla has more than earned her spot against Mercedes Moné at All In London with her work as the AEW Women's World Champion this year. We could see this one going either way. Predictions:Rick Ucchino: TheklaZack Heydorn: TheklaBlake Lovell: AND NEW!... Willow NightingaleAEW Men's World Championship Match: Kenny Omega vs. Kevin KnightKenny Omega vs. Kevin Knight | All Elite WrestlingDue to MJF's recent injuries, his AEW Men's World Title defense against Kenny Omega was moved up to AEW Beach Break and the 'Best Bout Machine' walked away with the gold for the second time in his career. He's now just a few weeks away from another dream match with Will Ospreay inside Wembley Stadium, and while Redemption is a great introduction to the main event scene for Kevin Knight, there's no way that Kenny is losing this one. The Jet's time will come, just not this Sunday in Montreal.Predictions:Rick Ucchino: Kenny OmegaZack Heydorn: Kenny OmegaBlake Lovell: Kenny OmegaAdd us as a preferred source on GoogleFollow
