– WWE asked fans: “Which match at WWE Payback are you most looking forward to?” As of this writing, the results are: Randy Orton vs. Bray Wyatt (32 percent), Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman (22 percent), Seth Rollins vs. Samoa Joe (16 percent), The Hardys vs. Sheamus/Cesaro (13 percent), Bayley vs. Alexa Bliss and Kevin Owens vs. Chris Jericho (7 percent), Neville vs. Austin Aries (3 percent).
– Matt Hardy appeared at last night’s House of Hardcore event and was is full “BROKEN” mode, as seen in the video below. Hardy has only been throwing in elements of the character on WWE television since returning at WrestleMania earlier this month, but as noted, WWE is planning to bring back the gimmick.
Hardy was originally scheduled to face Tommy Dreamer, however the match never happened as the Spirit Squad attacked Hardy by throwing powder in his face before the match started. Bully Ray came out and agreed to team with Dreamer against the Spirit Squad. Bully and Dreamer defeated the Spirit Squad after they hit a 3D on Kenny Dykstra.
