WWE reinvigorates its pay-per-view line up with a fresh new concept that will serve as the perfect stage for all the top Superstars to settle their long simmering grudges and set the stage for the sizzling road to SummerSlam. All major championships will be on the line including the revamped WWE Championship, plus the World Heavyweight Championship and much more. From the clashes for the ultimate prize, to fierce heavy-hitters with scores to settle, WWE fans will want to relive the historic debut of this riveting new event.

No card yet but a John Cena Vs Ryback rematch for the WWE title seems likely with maybe Ziggler Vs. Del Rio for the WHC title

Cena is facing Ryback in an Ambulance match for the WWE Title. This was stated on Raw.

Thats the Summerslam main event, a UFC rules match. Part 5 will be a 3 hour Iron Man match as the Wrestlemania main event

The other hour will be taken up by HHH walking slowly up the ramp hoping to get sympathy from the crowd who couldn't care less.

Fandango vs. The Miz vs. Wade Barrett for the IC Title seems likely to be added

plus

John Cena announced on last night’s RAW that the Ambulance for the WWE Title
against Ryback at WWE’s Payback pay-per-view will now be a 3 Stages of Hell
Match.
Stage 1 will be a Lumberjack Match, Stage 2 will be a Tables Match and Stage
3 will be the Ambulance Match

Sandow vs Sheamus has been added..... to the Pre-Show.

If D Bryan Vs. R Orton happens, I wonder where The Shield will fit in, maybe Ambrose Vs. Kane

Ryback vs Cena will probably last ten years.

Mr.Saturn

I hope the Ziggler/ADR comes to an end after the PPV. With Dolph's absence, ADR's stasis, and the general 'meh' of the championship, the WHC seems to be slowly slipping into further irrelevance.

CastorTroy

So Miz to pin Barrett or vice versa with Axel then getting a shot since he wasn't beaten?

When I think of the Intercontinental Championship I think of Mr Perfect.

I hope Axel wins.

Sunday is Father's Day:

Haven't watched WWE since the Raw after WM. The 3 hour stuff with all the recaps and the ****ing app **** has driven me to breaking point. But since Payback is on in the middle of a 7 day gap in between LC exams, i'll definitely watch this. Hopefully Punk returns. Great to hear that Bryan is red hot right now too, about damn time. Card looks decent too apart from super Cena overcoming the odds from 1-0 down against Ryback.

Meltzer about the Payback betting:

--For what this is worth, gambling lines (yes they exist) for Payback have skyrocketed. In the past, after scripts are finalized, people with knowledge start betting. Alberto Del Rio is a heavy favorite over Dolph Ziggler, although that could mean DQ. The rest are all that you would expect without any insider knowledge (all champions retaining except A.J. for Divas title and Curtis Axel for IC), with Ryback favored in the lumberjack match and Cena in tables and ambulance match. Will be interesting if tomorrow Vince gets mad about this and makes any changes to swerve his own people. So much late money came in on Del Rio that he's a 17-to-1 favorite. Kind of amazing I'm hearing more about late changing odds for a pro wrestling show than a UFC show. I've got to think at least one "obvious" finish will change for this very reason.

Surely Ziggler dropping the title in his first match back would send a bad message about concussions.

Rjd2

So should I be pounding the 11/4 Powers for Del Rio?

Mr.Nice Guy

This looks like a very predictable PPV.

Not by WWE just repulatable news sites. Who say he is back full time.

Also an important update on Jericho:

Chris Jericho tweaked his knee, possibly in his match with Curtis Axel that took place on Tuesday's Smackdown taping. He is definitely working tonight and he did work last night as well, but there is fear of a torn meniscus.

Didn't even this was on tonight

Way to take Ryback seriously.

No, the username joke doesn't get old.

Oh good, an advert during the match, I was hoping for one of them.

rovert

Sheamus is getting a mixed reaction from the smarky crowd

Lithium93_

Fingers crossed for a Sandow victory, Sheamus bores the life out of me

rovert

BOO!

rovert

What a rib on Josh having Big Show stand beside him.

Lithium93_

Dare i say that Sheamus as a face is Cena MKII, whereas when HE was a heel i had some level of interest

rovert

Titles change hands on countouts, right?

RIGHT?

Yep, he has been spot on! Also, this triple threat has been awesome!

rovert

Well that exceeded expectations

Angron

Well that was a strange ending.

briany

Great match. Great finish. Hot crowd.

Lithium93_

If the crowd loved that, they'll blow the roof of the arena when CM Punk steps out from behind the curtain

riffmongous

That was fun, I liked the ending. And its good to see them not just forget about the triple h beef afterwards too.

mrkiscool2

Where the hell is this Vince-HHH thing going? Also, loved the promo for Henry's return, they better make him look like a monster after that!

briany

What kind of havoc is the mysterious Reddit spoilerer wreaking backstage, I wonder? I would to imagine an ad hoc internal investigation going on and maybe a few last minute changes?
