UNPREDICTABLE PAYBACK

Unpredictable is used loosely in regards to WWE Payback, but is needed to describe things. Not focusing on the other matches (which you can find my predictions HERE), but solely on the WWE World Heavyweight Championship match. We are still a week away, which includes a RAW and Smackdown! before the special event that is WWE Payback and although a lot of things seem for sure, there are variables to make things not as they appear possibly. Bare with me though, as trying to explain all of the options might get wonky.

They are hinting at Anderson and Gallows helping AJ Styles defeat Roman Reigns. That, or it is a swerve? Either are possible, both are still unpredictable. If they help AJ, is it a Bullet Club (Balor Club) reunion sans Finn Balor? Are they face or heel? Face is obvious on fan reception, but what if say they were apart of The Authority who has been absent since Wrestlemania 32? It is the only way I see an AJ victory gaining any heat. What if they turn on Styles? Does Roman retain and move on, or does he turn heel and lead The Authority? Orrrrr, does Finn Balor make his borderline expected main roster debut and forms The Balor Club without AJ Styles? Or somehow we have AJ as both The Champ and Balor Club member? The only way I see Finn gaining heat in his debut, would be like AJ, and joining The Authority in the process or simply screwing Styles out of the title. Even then, who would be more over between Balor and Styles?
See what I mean about things being predictable, yet very not so at the same time? And how it doesn't make sense really based on my ability to clarify? haha And given the current direction of things, well what appears to be, we can't even guarantee Roman retains right now. Before AJ became the Number One Contender, there was unwavering certainty the Roman Empire would continue his run atop the mountain. As a face. Now, not sure of anything at all. I love that. Last week on RAW, Roman's "I'm THE Man" line had some sting behind it looking more like a heel, then a face with a doesn't care of opinions.

So, unless a lot changes via the next RAW and Smackdown! we are in a wait and see situation. Which we should technically always be, but then what would we have to read, write, and talk about? haha Until then fellow wrestling nerds, Stay Nerdy!
