The Show had Payback smelling all over it. Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton gave the fans a classic match while Paul Heyman tried his best to push Curtis Axel. Sheamus had a starting bout with Cody Rhodes and it was followed by Axel’s title defense against Wade Barrett.
Apart from Bryan- Orton match, Jericho and Alberto Del Rio also had a lot of emotions being stirred but a weak ending cost the match heavily. It also featured a promo of Paul E hyping the feud between Brock Lesnar and CM Punk. The brilliance with which he pulled off the segment once again proved why he is such a successful wrestling genius.
