WWE Adds Kickoff Show Match To Payback, Champion Comments

There’s always time for one more. Payback is coming up on us in a hurry and WWE did not exactly have a lot of time to set things up in the first place. That has made the build unlike any other in WWE history and that is going to cause some issues for everyone involved. You can’t do that much in such a short amount of time but that hasn’t stopped WWE, who is trying to make it as normal of a show as possible.

One of the biggest stories in WWE over the last few months has been the women’s divisions, which have been dominated by Bayley and Sasha Banks. Until last Sunday, they held all of the Women’s Titles, including the Tag Team Titles. Those belts will be on the line this Sunday, but they are going to need some more challengers after the match is over. We might find those out soon.

WWE has announced that the IIconics will face the Riott Squad during the Payback Kickoff Show. The two teams have fought extensively in recent weeks, including both in singles matches and tag matches. Bayley went on to comment on the match, saying they would be facing the winners next. There is no announcement of any reward or title shot for the winners.

We’ll take the winners https://t.co/iFfG2CBnYj

You might have seen this before. Check out how their previous match went down:

Opinion: This works as well as anything else as the division needs some fresh challengers. They don’t even need to move on and become big time challengers or anything, but rather just give the division something new. You can only have Bayley and Banks as champions for so long before it stops mattering and we are long past that point. Give us something fresh here and let it go somewhere. Why did it take this long though?

What do you think of the match? Who will get the win? Let us know in the comments below.
