I'd add a Ghetto Street Fight between Cryme Tyme and Priceless for RAW's tag team titles.

Batista v JBL will suck, there's no getting around it. The rest of the card looks tops though.

I'm thinking Hardy may finally get to win the title (and keep it until the Rumble?).

Spoiler:
Jericho: It ends at No Mercy
By SIMON ROTHSTEIN
Published: 28 Sep 2008
CHRIS JERICHO insists his breathtaking feud with Shawn Michaels WILL finish on Sunday — but he has warned fans not to expect a classic bout.
The two have been battling for months, providing plenty of memorable moments and magical matches along the way.
They will meet for one last time, in a ladder match, for Jericho’s world title at No Mercy on October 5.
Reflecting on the feud and where he goes next, Jericho told SunSport: "This angle has been going on for seven months and it's been amazing.
"I know not every angle will be like that, it's a once-in-a-career type thing.
"But it doesn't mean I'm just going to pack up and go home after Sunday.
"I just have to start working with the next guy and go on from there.
"It's like making a new record as a musician. Just because you make (legendary AC/DC album) Back In Black doesn't mean you stop making records.
"Some of them will be good and some won’t be but you'll never have that Back In Black again.
"And this could be my Back In Black."
Speaking at THQ’s Smackdown v Raw 2009 Superstar Challenge event, Jericho added: "I would never say any match is going to be match of the year.
"That puts way too much hype and expectation on what we're going to do at No Mercy.
"I think it's going to be a great ending to one of the best feuds, one of the best angles, of all time — that I can guarantee.
"Whether it will be match of the year, match of the decade, match of the century or even match of the night, that’s not as important to me as putting a real nice exclamation point on the end of this story that we've created.2
Jericho has spent most of his wrestling career as a fan favourite but has recently transformed himself into the WWE's most hated bad guy.
And he again let us in to a few of his secrets.
Jericho confessed: "It was very easy for me. I turned the tables on everybody. I changed the way I looked, my attitude and who I am.
"Fans didn't want that, they're stuck in the past. They still want the old funny, wacky Y2J character — but he's gone.
"A lot of people are mad at me about that — and that's the idea.
"I took a chance in reinventing myself but that’s what the best performers with longevity in any industry do."
A major part of the success of Jericho’s feud with Michaels is they scripted it much of it themselves, rather than rely on WWE’s writers to feed them lines.
And it has led to some sound advice from Jericho to those young guys coming up through the WWE’s ranks who want to do the same.
He told us: "You don’t just sit down and say ‘I want control of the entire situation’.
"That comes with years of experience and years of ideas.
"Nobody ever gives me a piece of paper and tells me to say what’s on it. That is not how it works.
"The best characters are extensions of your own personality — and nobody knows what I would say in the ring better than I do.
"Sometimes they’ll give ideas of what they want me to say and I have to make it mine."
Jericho added: "The angle with Shawn did have a lot of input from us two veterans.
"We weren’t just throwing ideas against the wall, we had a plan.
"And that’s one of the reasons why the angle has been so memorable.
"It wasn’t just manufactured in an office. It came from our experiences and our lives."
You can see Chris Jericho v Shawn Michaels at No Mercy live on Sky Box Office at 1am on Sunday October 5/Monday October 6.

No Mercy looks like it's going to be a good ppv and I'm not sure if I want to order it or not. There are a few good matches on the card and some aren't too good, as usual.
World Heavyweight Title:
Chris Jericho (c) vs. Shawn Michaels
When the match was first annouced, I had my doubts but now I see that the feud between Shawn Michaels and Chris Jericho is slowly ending. I wouldn't mind seeing Shawn Michaels with the World Title again but Jericho should keep it for a few more months.
WWE Championship:
Triple H (c) vs. Jeff Hardy
I want Jeff Hardy to win but I doubt Triple H will be dropping the title any time soon. This match could go either way but I think Triple H will retain the WWE Championship.
Grudge Match:
The Undertaker vs The Big Show
Ah, this match should be interesting, Undertaker should win though. I wouldn't mind seeing the feud continue for a few weeks.
#1 Contender's Match:
John Bradshaw Layfield vs Batista
I'm getting real tired of seeing JBL in WWE period, he adds nothing to the wrestling business but he is a great heel. I hope Batista wins!
I'll post the rest of my predictions when I come back home tonight.

Isn't saying he adds nothing to the business, but is a great heel, a contradiction in terms?

Predictions, just for the hell of it.
Jericho v Michaels
Triple H v Hardy
Hardy v Henry
Batista v JBL
Undertaker v Show
Kane v Mysterio
Beth v Candice
Undertaker is the only one I'm really not sure about.

Just a reminder that No Mercy Starts at 2am instead of the usual 1am.

Dont see why it would be 2am? aint heard of any time changes or America's time being different.
Show looks decent, ladder match should be good, i hope Hardy wins but he wont, too predictable.
