WWE Payback 2020 Full Results With Highlights
WWE Raw Preview (31/08/20): Rey Mysterio vs Seth Rollins; Payback Fallout
The Mysterio family was finally able to claim a big win at WWE Payback, but their problems with The Monday Night Messiah isn’t over yet. As per the confirmation on WWE.com, Rey Mysterio will face Seth Rollins on WWE Raw, as the rivalry continues. After months of torturous acts from Rollins, Dominik & his father scored a satisfying win over Rollins & Murphy Payback. Could Rey be able to score a singles win?
The Master of 619 will have a golden opportunity as Rollins and Murphy aren’t on the same page, for now. It was Murphy who suffered the pinfall loss at Payback and thus he let down his master, making the latter irate. This is the perfect time for Mysterio to capitalize on the situation. But then again he would have to be aware of Retribution faction who attacked the father-son duo, last week.
An update suggests that WWE Champion Drew McIntyre sustained a hairline jaw fracture as a result of the three kicks to the skull from Randy Orton on WWE Raw. It’s likely that we’d hear an update about the champion whether he’d be absent from the scene for sometimes. On a related note, his next title defense should also be announced for Clash of Champions 2020.
Meanwhile, Keith Lee competed against Randy Orton at Payback 2020 to pull off a huge shocker as he defeated The Viper with his Spirit Bomb. This marked the biggest win in the former NXT Champion’s career who could now expect some big things, moving forward. We’d learn on WWE Raw whether this pinfall win over Orton would insert him into the WWE Title picture.
Sasha Banks and are no more the Women’s Tag Team Champions as they lost the titles to Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler. The Golden Role Models will now have to leave their tag who might also have dropped their bond, as well. Will this mark the end of their partnership and set up the much-anticipated rivalry between the two? Will Banks be the next in line to challenge Bayley for the latter’s title? We’ll find out when WWE Raw airs with the latest episode from the ThunderDome.
