Updated Card For WWE Payback 2020
Pre-show tag contest announced.
WWE have added a pre-show tag team match to tonight's Payback pay-per-view, bringing the card's total up to eight.
The company announced, via WWE.com, that a pairing of Ruby Riott and Liv Morgan will meet former Women's Tag Team Champions The IIconics during Sunday's Kickoff presentation:
The next chapter in the heated rivalry between The Riott Squad and The IIconics will be written when they clash during the WWE Payback Kickoff show, tomorrow night at 6 ET/3 PT.
Ruby Riott found herself on the receiving end of mockery from Peyton Royce & Billie Kay in recent weeks, with the Australian duo claiming Riott had no friends. But after apologizing to her estranged partner Liv Morgan, The Riott Squad was back in action and the odds evened against The IIconics. But in several bouts pitting members of the two teams against each other, it seemed as though Riott and Morgan needed to get back on the same page, while The IIconics often had the last laugh.
Spoiler if anyone overly cares: Riott and Morgan (alongside Bianca Belair) were victorious in a six-woman tag match on Raw this week against the same opponents - 50/50 dictates a reverse this evening.
The full Payback 2020 card now looks as follows:
- Bray Wyatt (c) vs. Braun Strowman vs. Roman Reigns in a No Holds Barred Triple Threat for the WWE Universal Championship
- Sasha Banks & Bayley (c) vs. Shayna Baszler & Nia Jax for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships
- Apollo Crews (c) vs. Bobby Lashley for the WWE United States Championship
- Keith Lee vs. Randy Orton
- Rey & Dominik Mysterio vs. Seth Rollins & Murphy
