WWE Payback 2016: Full match card analysis and predictions

Can he retain?

Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens

It restarts

The WWE fans are going to get a taste of the immense chemistry that Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn have. To WWE’s credit, they have projected this as a big time feud and deservedly so. The whole best-friend storyline have always worked in the wrestling business and WWE would be riding on the same phenomenon at Payback.

We should have no doubts about the capability of these two to deliver a solid match. The only question that the fans have will be about the winner. And as WWE is maintaining the underdog image of Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens is likely to get a win even if it is not in a clean way.

Prediction: Kevin Owens


Dean Ambrose vs. Chris Jericho

Best for business

Every week in and week out, Chris Jericho comes out to Monday Night Raw and proves that he is one of the most valuable players in the current WWE roster. The way in which he generates heat among the WWE Universe is unmatched and anyone that gets paired with him is bound to go to a different level.

Dean Ambrose would be no different. Ambrose and Jericho thrives on in-ring psychology and capturing the attention of the crowd wouldn’t be a problem for these two at the end of the day. As much as I would like to see Ambrose win, at this point of this feud, Jericho winning would be the right decision.

Prediction: Chris Jericho wins
