Given Smackdown's title picture, I think it's only fair that Brock Lesnar faces Curt Hawkins for the Universal Title at Payback.

Reading now that Orton/Bray is non-title.

So pleased it's non-title. Strong start for Bray on RAW.

Bray better win. It's a non-title gimmick match. Orton is super protected in this scenario and absolutely doesn't need the win. Hell, let Jinder show up and interfere in that match to help build Smackdown up.
I'd honestly like to see WWE get Bray to a place on Raw where he can beat Lesnar. If that takes them letting him steamroll people all summer then so be it. Start with Orton, eventually beat Braun, and then take down the Beast. Someone has to do it. "Anyone but you Roman!"

I don't think he will beat Lesnar, but I feel like they are lining him up for a showdown with Brock either at SummerSlam or Survivor Series. I think we will see these guys get the title shots at Brock: Strowman @ SummerSlam Wyatt @ Survivor Series Balor or Rollins @ Royal Rumble Reigns @ WrestleMania I don't want to see or accept it either, but you know that unless Vince dies before then, Reigns is going to beat Brock in the Main Event as a babyface, main eventing his 4th Mania in a row to a spectacularly failing finish. |

I think this may be the least interested I am in a Pay-Per-View in a year or more. At the very least, since the brand split. Hardys/Sheamus & Cesaro will be fun, but the Hardys are already dangerously close to feeling like a nostalgia act. Couldn't care less about the rest of the card.

Hoping Alexa and A Double both win titles and I'm excited for Rollins vs Joe. Throw in the Hardyz vs Cesaro/Sheamus and I think it's worth $10. While I'm not interested or excited for any of the other 3 matches, any or all of them could turn out good. I think Orton and Bray are in a much better position to succeed than what they were at Mania. Bray needs the win but I honestly don't care about the outcome since the title is a non-factor.

Do you guys think Ambrose will have an Intercontinental Title match? Can't believe he isn't on this final card, but do you think maybe he will interrupt Miz TV during the Balor interview, and have a match with Miz for the IC Title?
The card isn't to bad, but I cant believe they drafted Ambrose to Raw, and aren't going to have him on the first Raw PPV after Mania.

Rather looking forward to Payback this Sunday. Looks like a decent enough card.

Any chance Randy/Bray actually main events?

i fully expect them to "tease" the idea that Reigns isn't going to make it to the show all night
then at the end, big dog miraculously comes out to defend his yard and takes down "the giant monster among the mountain of a man" strowman with 46 superman punches for good measure

Some people are saying that first half of the House of Horrors Match is going to pre-taped. (Renee mentioned on talking smack that the match will start in the house and end in the ring)

The fact that Roman Reigns is going to show up tonight without a scratch on him, maybe a tiny piece of kayfabe shoulder tape, and totally no sell the beating and bury Strowman is actually really bothering me. If I watch this PPV at all, I don't think I can force myself to sit through that match.

Hoping that Alexa takes down Bayley and becomes Queen of RAW.

This PPV is such an afterthought, I thought Raw was on tonight and it was Monday.
Maybe having Brock get up off the couch and defend that title before his 30 day clause is up and gets stripped(It just happened to Naomi so the rule still exists) would help bring alittle more out of the show.

Hoping that Alexa and Aries take home gold tonight. Having Alexa as champ would be a solid short term answer to pushing Bayley/Heel Sasha off until the summer. Also Aries should win here, who else is a solid credible threat to Neville and his title?
Orton/Wyatt is going to bore me to tears, I can forsee it coming from miles away. Only good news here is that since its non-title, it probably means that Wyatt probably gets the win, but still expecting this match to be hokey and stupid.
Looking forward to Rollins/Joe, should be a good match. Hopefully Strowman steamrolls Reigns. Couldn't care less about the other matches.
