My predictions for WWE Payback 2016

AJ Styles vs. Roman Reigns (c)

for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship

AJ Styles has had a meteoric rise to the top since his debut at the Royal Rumble this year. After teaming with - and feuding against - Chris Jericho, AJ Styles has earned a shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Will Styles take one of the most prestigious prizes in wrestling history and the most prestigious title in the WWE?

My prediction: Roman Reigns will probably retain.

Cesaro vs. The Miz (c)

for the WWE Intercontinental Championship

The Miz has taken the WWE Intercontinental Championship from Zack Ryder 24 hours after WrestleMania to begin his fifth Intercontinental reign...and now his wife, Maryse, has returned to WWE for the first time in years to make it happen. Now Cesaro has earned a shot at The Miz's title...can Cesaro give Miz less than a Hollywood ending?

My prediction: Cesaro will take the title.

Ryback vs. Kalisto (c)

for the WWE United States Championship

Yep, it's the rematch. It hasn't been built up, but build-up was hardly necessary. We all knew this match was coming.

My prediction: Kalisto will retain.

Dean Ambrose vs. Chris Jericho

Finally, it's happening so many months after Night of Champions...which isn't even mentioned in this feud. Well, that's weird.

My prediction: Dean Ambrose will probably win this one.

Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn

Well, they couldn't stand each other in NXT, and now they can't stand each other on the main roster either. Now they finally face each other on a main roster pay-per-view. How's this one going to pan out?

My prediction: Kevin Owens will probably win this one.

Natalya vs. Charlotte (c)

for the WWE Women's Championship

After Charlotte's arrogance took center stage the night after WrestleMania, the rest of the women's division walked out on her...and Natalya had finally had enough. It's now a battle against two wrestling dynasties at Payback. Who will win?

My prediction: Natalya will probably win this one and take the title.

Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady
vs.
The Vaudevillains (Aiden English and Simon Gotch)

The winner of this match will take on The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) for the WWE Tag Team Championships.

NXT is slowly taking over as The Vaudevillains take on the team of Enzo and Cass in the finals of the #1 Contenders' Tag Team Tournament. Who will go on to face The New Day?

My prediction: The Vaudevillains will probably win this one.

Baron Corbin vs. Dolph Ziggler

Because Baron Corbin has to start his post-Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal career on the main roster somewhere.

My prediction: Corbin will win this one.
