No it's not the 1996 Mel Gibson movie, it's WWE Payback!
WWE World Heavyweight Title Match
AJ Styles vs. Roman Reigns - Reigns wins after Gallows and Anderson cost AJ the title. Something happens on Raw.
WWE Intercontinental Title Match
Cesaro vs. The Miz - Cesaro wins the belt after Frank the Clown replaces Miz' Perrier with La Croix.
WWE Women's Title Match
Natalya with Bret Hart vs. Charlotte with Ric Flair - Charlotte keeps the belt. Bert knocks Ric off TV.
Finals of the #1 Contenders' Tag Team Tournament
Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady vs. The Vaudevillains - Vaudevillains win after Dudley interference.
Chris Jericho vs. Dean Ambrose - Ambrose needs a win. Ambrose.
Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens - Zayn also needs a win. Zayn steals one to keep the feud alive.
Baron Corbin vs. Dolph Ziggler - Corbin should squash Ziggler. That probably won't happen but he should win.
Vince McMahon announces who will control RAW - Shane McMahon or Stephanie McMahon and Triple H - Shane keeps Raw. Authority gets Smackdown. We get screwed.
WWE United States Title Kickoff Pre-show Match
Ryback vs. Kalisto - Best part of this match will be Mauro and King on commentary. Kalisto wins.

Thrones is at 8, so I think I'll throw that on the TV and have the tablet with the Network.

Reigns wins via botched shenanigans
Zayn/Owens double DQ or double countout
Ambrose over Jericho (though I do think Jericho might win by cheating)
Charlotte over Nattie
Vaudevillains over Enzo/Cass
Corbin over Ziggy
Kalisto over Ryback (who hasn't been on TV since Mania I don't think)
Vince is about to give Shane Raw, but Steph slaps her dad & Trips comes back to beat up both father & son (trying to figure out something new). Still won't make sense.

Ziggler vs Corbin starting now on the pre-show. Looks like Ryback/Kalisto either got scrapped or is on the actual card for some dumb reason. If so, expect title change.

I think it's going to also be on the pre-show. Rewound the pre-show & legit 3 minutes before the Corbin match, they said it's happening on the pre-show. So maybe 2 matches tonight?
Lawler made a Ray Rice joke too. "I'd rather ride on an elevator with Ray Rice than watch the Ambrose Asylum."
Someone's going to be apologizing soon.

Ziggy wins via schoolboy after Corbin was being too cocky. Mauro putting it over as a rookie mistake. I actually like it.
25 minutes left, we're still getting Kalisto/Ryback. Renee just said it. |

She's like a super hot Barbie doll.
This Zayn/Owens feud I want to see go on until Mania (realistically until Summerslam, take a break, then go all out again). It has such an actual history built in to it. So enjoyable.

They aren't fighting over it. They have an actual personal issue. |

Byron: Ready to get your Lucha on, Mauro?
Mauro: Si.
Byron: Alright.
No reason I should be laughing this much at that, but I am.
Steroid Guy just mocked CM Punk's "It's Clobbering Time" thing during his entrance.
Did Woodridge end up deciding on going tonight?

They aren't fighting over it. They have an actual personal issue. There's no reason Ryder should've won though other than to just make the crowd pop briefly. He's already back on Superstars. Makes me wonder if Neville originally was going to win it, since that's who Ryder replaced.
I agree, neither Zayn or Owens should've won at Mania. It was perfectly done with them. Both were responsible why the other didn't win. That's how it should be for a long time. I really want this to go for a long time. Summerslam, Hell in a Cell, you could have Owens win MITB & have that as his "one up" on Zayn. Possibilities are endless there.

It says "The Pre-Show Stopper" on Ryback's belt. That's pretty fucking funny.
Still shouldn't win the title though. He brings nothing to the US title. Not like they're doing a ton with Kalisto, but they could do a lot more with him than Ryback.

Not like they're doing a ton with Kalisto, but they could do a lot more with him than Ryback. I was on the Kalisto train early. Loved him on the indies. But he really doesn't get any kind of pop outside of a few arms in the air. I'm shocked, but I think the office has noticed. |

You have to push through that though to get someone over.
Move him up a bit too and give him some higher profile wins. People will notice.

Clean win by Kalisto. Hit the SDS on The Big Guy. Better match than Mania.
Putting Kalisto against Del Rio constantly, then re-teaming with Sin Cara, then Ryback, does nothing for him. He needs to be in a consistent feud. Jericho would be perfect.
Let Kalisto talk. Putting him with a shitty talker like Ryback doesn't do anything.

The Booty-O Boys are out to start before the opening video package. Woods hitting on Beyoncé was great.
Assuming Enzo/Cass vs Gotch/English up first.
