September 2nd 2023.
Tonight, WWE Payback is here and fans are eager to watch the stacked card. As if that wasn't enough, John Cena is back on SmackDown and is hosting the event. He has teased being ready for action in the upcoming weeks, and it will be interesting to see what direction his return takes.
The show will feature four championships at stake, as well as a grudge match between LA Knight and The Miz, and a very personal Steel Cage clash. Moreover, Cody Rhodes will appear on the Grayson Waller Effect, which could have serious implications on WWE programming in future.
When it comes to the matches, WWE fans can look forward to Seth Rollins battling Shinsuke Nakamura for the World Heavyweight Title, Becky Lynch facing Trish Stratus in a Steel Cage Match, Rhea Ripley defending her Women's World Title against Raquel Rodriguez, Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens competing for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Titles, Rey Mysterio challenging Austin Theory for the United States Titles, and The Miz taking on LA Knight.
John Cena taking on the role of host is especially intriguing. There is a chance of him getting involved in Cody Rhodes' appearance on The Grayson Waller Effect, which could be a dream money match. As for the matches, fans can fairly easily predict the winners of the Lynch/Stratus, Knight/Miz, and Mysterio/Theory matches. However, the World Heavyweight Title match between Rollins and Nakamura is a tough one to call. Plus, the looming presence of Money In The Bank holder Damian Priest adds to the tension.
WWE presents Payback tonight, with the main card kicking off at 1am for fans in the UK. The Kickoff show can be watched on the WWE Network, WWE.com, the WWE app, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch at midnight. UK fans can either stream live or watch on demand via the WWE Network or order the event via TNT Sports Box Office.
With John Cena hosting, four championships on the line, and Cody Rhodes making an appearance, WWE Payback promises to be an exciting event.
