My predictions for WWE Payback 2017

Enzo Amore and Big Cass vs. Gallows & Anderson (Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson)

These two teams have been going at it for a while now. The Raw before Payback, however, saw Gallows & Anderson attack Enzo and Cass from the crowd and laid Enzo out. Now these two will go at it, probably for the last time...for a while, at least.

My prediction: Enzo and Cass will probably win this one.

Chris Jericho vs. Kevin Owens (c)

for the WWE United States Championship; if Jericho wins, he will be transferred to SmackDown Live

Jericho is getting his rematch against his former bestie Owens for the United States title...and it could be the last time we see these two go up against each other as well the last time we see Jericho in the ring for a while...

My prediction: Owens will retain.

Sheamus and Cesaro vs. The Hardy Boyz (Jeff and Matt Hardy) (c)

for the WWE Raw Tag Team Championships

After returning for the first time in about seven years, The Hardys are tag team champs and they are defending the Raw tag titles for the first time. Now Sheamus and Cesaro have a shot at the titles that they could have won at WrestleMania...

My prediction: The Hardys will probably retain.

Randy Orton vs. Bray Wyatt

in a House of Horrors Match

The feud between Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt that has been going on since the beginning of the year finally comes to a head in a House of Horrors Match. What a House of Horrors Match actually is, we don't know, but this definitely won't be a typical wrestling match. This will be a war. If only it was for the WWE Championship...

My prediction: Randy Orton will probably win this one and close the book on this rivarly...for now...

Austin Aries vs. Neville (c)

for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship

Here it is again. Austin Aries has another shot at Neville and the Cruiserweight title thanks to a Fatal 4-Way win that deemed him the #1 contender. Will Neville conquer a second time, or will Austin rise about Neville's level to the A-Double Level?

My prediction: Aries is taking the title. For real this time.

Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman

Well, we knew this was going to happen, especially after Strowman tipped the ambulance Roman was in to its side with his bare hands. Who is going to win between these two powerhouses?

My prediction: If I had to pick a definite winner...Roman. But I see this ending in a no-contest, too. But in case of a definite winner...I'll go with Roman.

Seth Rollins vs. Samoa Joe

Just when Seth Rollins has put Triple H behind him with a win in a non-sanctioned match at WrestleMania, here comes Samoa Joe wanting revenge for his "benefactor." Joe is finally getting some real action on the main roster at Payback, while Rollins is trying to rise back to the top...

My prediction: Something tells me Joe might win this one.

Alexa Bliss vs. Bayley (c)

for the WWE Raw Women's Championship

Well, it was bound to happen eventually now that Alexa Bliss is on the red brand thanks to the Superstar Shake-Up. After two title reigns on the blue brand, Alexa is going for her first title reign on Raw. Her main obstacle to doing just that? Bayley...and she's not going to give up the title easily...

My prediction: Bayley will probably retain.
