WWE Payback 2017: 10 Huge Predictions You Need To Know
2. Joe Takes Revenge
Though not destined to be the next Stone Cold Steve Austin, Seth Rollins seems to have finally found traction as a top babyface on Monday Night Raw.
His muddled transition did little to inspire fans to fight his corner so soon after shelving genuine crowd favourite Finn Balor and an May 2016 comeback promo in which he lambasted the audience for daring to cheer his own heroic return from injury.
WWE finally cracked it in January, when Triple H's meddling cost him his place in the Royal Rumble match. Seth's fury lead him to invade 'The Game's domain, bringing NXT TakeOver: San Antonio to a halt with a surprise appearance midway through the broadcast.
Injury suffered at the hands of a debuting Samoa Joe just days later piled more sympathy on Rollins, who showed his humility after a rapid rehabilitation and victory over the man he regretted ever siding with nearly three years prior.
With 'The Kingslayer' earning his ultimate redemption, now seems the perfect opportunity for the 'Samoan Submission Machine' to burst his bubble. Joe works unbeaten streaks well, and a loss at this point would be unnecessarily damaging for his killer persona.
