WWE Payback 2016 Spoilers and Predictions


The Clint

The Card

 

Roman Reigns V AJ Styles (WWE Championship Match)

 

The Miz V Cesaro (IC Title Match)

 

Dean Ambrose V Chris Jericho

 

Sami Zayn V Kevin Owens

 

Charlotte (with Ric Flair) V Natalya (with Bret Hart) (Women's Championship Match)

 

Enzo Amore & Colin Cassady V The Vaudevillians

 

 

I'm surprised that Natalya has been pushed into the women's title picture all of a sudden. Unless it's all just for the purpose of bringing Bret back on TV.

Charlotte needs a bit of fodder rather than having another match against Sasha Banks or Becky Lynch. If those three (plus Bayley) are going to be flying the flag for the Women's division, they need to start having their bouts more sporadic so they don't become worthless.

They did the same thing in NXT with Flsir and Bret in the corners. Glad to see that Bret is up and about and willing to come in again so soon after his cancer scare.

 

The rest of the cards looks ok on paper. The winners of Enzo/Cass v Vaudvillains face New Day for the belts on the same show. I'm assuming they'll go with a Vaudvillains win to avoid the face v face dynamic and making the crowd choose between them

Have they said that was happening? on Raw I just remember them saying they would become the no1 contenders for tag titles but didn't state the match would also be on Payback

 

If that is the case why not just have the Final of the Tag Tournament on next weeks Raw and have the winners face The New Day at Payback

According to Observer that's the current way it is. I agree it would make much more sense to have the final next week, and obviously things could change but as of right now either Enzo & Cass or the Vaudvillains are pulling double duty at Payback.

 

Who does win it I think will take the titles though. New Day seem to have been champs forever

It's definitely happening at Payback, they had a little screen cap thing of it on Raw after the Vaudvillains won.

 

Edit: hang on, I mis-read. I too didn't notice them say anything about the title match happening on the same show as well. I don't think it is. Just the No1 contender match.

The card is decent on paper. 

 

Natalya has done a lot for the division so Im guessing its honouring her now they have done away with the Divas belt and are taking things seriously, plus as already mentioned it keeps things a little fresher for a little while. 

 

Only thing that really surprises me is the lack of US title on the TV shows & PPV's, you've got a decent champ in Kalisto but they are doing nothing with him, it's like they couldn't care less about the belt.

Didn't mind Natalya when she wore that PVC outfit for a few weeks a while back, she's absolute shite otherwise. Sloppy as fuck in the ring compared to Becky, Sasha or even Nikki Bella and that discus clothesline finish is crap too

Can't see it from how it's set up. New Day have been such a success story, you either have New Day lose to heels with nuclear heat (that ain't the Vaudevillains) or to heels that you want to make seem a big deal all of a sudden because you've got big plans for them (I doubt that's the Vaudevillains either).

 

So with the second point in mind, I expect New Day to eventually lose the belts to Gallows and Karlu. They've got a storyline/intrigue attached to them, when they start wrestling matches on telly and beating people, I think they get the belts to make them seem a bigger deal.

...like what?

 

 

She's been an ever present, been a mentor to the other women, over with the crowd. 

 

I can understand why they have given her the first real feud under the new belt.
