WWE Payback 2017
Pre-Show: Anderson & Gallows vs Enzo and Cass WWE Cruiserweight Championship (c) Neville vs Austin Aries At first I thought this feud would end with Neville winning and then moving to a feud with Kalisto, but after last Monday I don't see Kalisto coming back anytime soon. With that being the case I think it's possible then that Aries may get the win tonight to mix things up in the division even if he loses back to Neville at least it's something different. So I am going with my gut and picking Aries to win WWE Tag Team Championship: (c) Hardy Boys vs Cesaro & Sheamus After last weeks Raw I am starting to think that they may start trying to turn Cesaro and Sheamus heel and prolong a feud with the Hardy's for a little while instead of just doing a one and done type of thing which I think would be a 100 times better. Since their return the Hardy's have been riding a wave of momentum and I don't think it will end tonight as they will retain the titles. WWE United States Championship: (c) Kevin Owens vs Chris Jericho This is an easy prediction and though I have loved this feud especially since Jericho turned as I feel like everything has been done right with this one it is coming to an end. At this point it seems as though Jericho will be ending his longest run in quite a while to go on tour with Fozzy for a little while. This likely means that Kevin Owens will retain. Seth Rollins vs Samoa Joe Though many think his feud with Triple H could have been done better as they took a 3 month hiatus from even mentioning the feud before talking about it again I am not one of them and it provided a good segway to this feud. When Joe took Rollins out that was the best thing that could've happened to him so early in his stay on the main roster as it guaranteed him a spot on the top of the card. I think this match could go either way but I will pick a draw in some way to keep the feud building. WWE Women's Championship (c) Bayley vs Alexa Bliss The build for this has been lackluster and though my outlook is more positive I think they should give this more time to build. Though I do believe that Alexa is capable to be champion at this point I don't think taking the title off Bayley is the right move at this point especially after last year. I think Bayley winning is the best idea. House of Horrors Match: Randy Orton vs Bray Wyatt Not sure at all what to expect from this match but if it's anything like the Wyatt Compound match from last year it is going to suck. I do have high hopes for this match though after their Wrestlemania match failed to deliver on the expectations that we had for it as it felt very rushed. For the last seven months these two have been feuding I hope that this match delivers on the build I don't even care who wins. But I think it's clear that Orton wins tonight. Roman Reigns vs Braun Strowman Since the return to the Coliseum on April 10 they have been build Braun up to be an amazingly dangerous monster, but the next step for that is to have him beat Roman Reigns. I am not saying this because I don't like Roman, but if Braun is next in line for Brock then he needs to beat Roman to give the believability a boost. As right now how I feel is that if he can't beat Roman why should I believe he could beat Brock. For this reason he needs to win tonight to keep the push going and to become a "Real Challenger" for Brock.
