WWE Payback 2016 Matches: Roman Reigns vs AJ Styles, Dean Ambrose vs Chris Jericho and more

Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn

And the rivalry continues

This was bound to happen someday! Sami Zayn and Kevin Owes are all set to write another chapter in their long and storied rivalry at Payback. The Zayn-Owens match was first rumored to be featured on the WrestleMania card, but WWE saved the one-on-one showdown for the subsequent PPV.

Owens took out Zayn in a backstage attack on RAW recently, that paved the way for a Cesaro return. Zayn, though, avenged the beatdown by costing KO his match on Smackdown. KO was livid and went on to assault a banged up Zayn, whose left hand was all tapped up.

All of this points to KO vs Zayn being a confirmed lock for Payback, which is already being billed as a clear frontrunner for the match of the night.
