Two more matches added to WWE Payback card
Following the announcement of Seth Rollins vs. Samoa Joe earlier in the day, two more matches were added to the card for WWE’s next pay-per-view on Monday night.
Roman Reigns didn’t appear on Raw this week to sell the beatdown that he received from Braun Strowman last Monday, but it was officially announced that the two will face each other at Payback. Reigns worked the Raw house show loop this past weekend and brawled with Strowman instead of taking part in official matches.
The next contender for the Raw Women’s Championship was also decided this week, with Alexa Bliss stealing a pin from Nia Jax in a fatal four-way match to get a title shot against Bayley at the PPV.
Payback will take place on April 30th at the SAP Center in San Jose, California. The updated card is:
- WWE Champion Randy Orton defending against Bray Wyatt in a House of Horrors match
- Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman
- Seth Rollins vs. Samoa Joe
- Raw Women’s Champion Bayley defending against Alexa Bliss
- United States Champion Kevin Owens defending against Chris Jericho
- Raw Tag Team Champions The Hardys defending against Cesaro & Sheamus
- WWE Cruiserweight Champion Neville defending against Austin Aries
