Heading Into Payback

Payback takes place tonight! We thought that we would share some of the rumors floating around about the event. It will be headlined by the match between Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman, along with a House of Horrors match between Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton.

Here are some rumors for the event (remember as always to take rumors with a grain of salt). 

Rumor: Some of the ‘House Of Horrors’ match will be pre-taped.

  • This could be something like the Wyatt Family Compound/ Total Nonstop Deletion. It will likely feature some elaborate pre-taped scene, straight out of a horror movie.
  • The match has to end in the ring, meaning it will eventually turn into a real match.

Rumor: Chris Jericho loses, takes a leave of absence from WWE. 

  • There have been many rumors floating about Jericho and his upcoming touring schedule with Fozzy. All indications seem to be that he will be taking some time off after Payback.
  • Also, with Owens already in a feud with AJ Styles, it seems like Owens will retain.

Rumor: Minimal Title Changes

  • One of the rumors floating around is that the event will see minimal title changes.
  • Don’t expect more than 1 if these rumors are true.

Rumor: Something Might Be Broken

  • In the Hardy Boyz vs Sheamus and Cesaro match, we could see two separate scenarios.
  • One would be the Hardy Boyz lose the titles, leading to Matt using his ‘Broken’ gimmick.
  • The second is that the Hardy Boyz retain, causing Sheamus and Cesaro to break-up as a tag team
