 What's good George Bo Ross back again with another video summary and check out 10 things you didn't know about WWE payback Payback is this coming Saturday as I'm filming this right now. I'm gonna be honest with you For the first time and quite some time. I'm not as Excited for WWE pay-per-view as I usually am This one is I don't know. It's just kind of middle of the road for me. There are some matches I'm looking forward to but I'm not excited for the overall pay-per-view as I have been for the other pay-per-views WWE has put on for the past. I want to say almost year year and a half now So we got to check this out since you know pay payback is right around the corner I will be doing my preview and predictions on who's gonna win and how things may play out, but Ultimately payback has always been kind of a B level Sometimes a C level pay-per-view in a sense It's never really just in my opinion been one of those must see pay-per-views But we'll see what happens this Saturday right now get right into this one man Appreciate all the love and support you guys have shown on the channel man, and let's get right into this thing As WWE gets set to run its first payback event for three years These six paybacks so far have got some cracking secrets and revelations hidden within them such as why payback was initially canceled The real story behind the house of horrors and why exactly payback is for God that payback hasn't been around in quite some time so That's I forgot all about that actually then he just reminded me damn cuz we haven't had a payback in a minute So he tied to a certain feed me a more fella with that in mind Imagine what coach you're wrestling and here are ten things you didn't know about WWE payback number ten the reason for paybacks initial Cancellation yes payback was reintroduced in 2020 But why was the event removed from the WWE calendar in the first place the answer? Obviously, that's when Roman Reigns won the Universal Championship after coming back in We had this long three-year reign That's crazy for three years it comes down to the ever-fluid topic of WWE's Brands split running as a regular pay-per-view from 2013 until 2016 2017 saw payback become a raw exclusive event Of course the superstar shake-up meant that this raw event did feature SmackDown talent But hey, that's forever the case when something involves WWE and a brand split the 2018 payback was intended to be a Smackdown only pay-per-view until a change of strategy saw those plans Scuppered that change of strategy was to move away from brand exclusive pay-per-views Which in turn meant less pay-per-views were needed by WWE payback was one of the events to get the axe number nine payback 2014 Well, they brought it back. So hopefully this could be one of the better ones Maybe one of the best paybacks we've ever had who knows we're gonna see this Saturday Broke a near eight-year streak payback 2014 has the accolade of being the first WWE pay-per-view To not feature a men's world title match for nearly eight years Payback the last time the top prize or prizes of the men's division wasn't defended on pay-per-view was back at Armageddon 2006 where WWE champion John Cena teamed with World Heavyweight Champion Batista to take on King Bucke and fit Finley in a match where neither world title run the line for the next seven and a half years at least one of the company's men's world titles Would be defended whenever each pay-per-view rolled around that was of course until payback 2014 brought a halt to that streak The trinket that Daniel Bryan would defeat Randy Orton and Batista for at WrestleMania 13 Unfortunately, Brian was out of action due to neck issues by the time of payback 2014 which is why the WWE World Heavyweight title wasn't defended at that event Sadly the bride would be Katie's goal just eight days after a payback, which was headlined by the shield versus evolution And that was good. I will say that there has been some good matches on payback I'm not gonna sit up here and make it seem like paybacks always had you know It's you know had some trash matches or it wasn't worth the time eight Keith Lee's only singles WWE PLE win Approval from both Roman Reigns and brought Lesnar joins initial appearances on the main roster Big things appeared to be in the future for Tita raw after SummerSlam 2020 sadly a mixture of Vince McMahon and some extremely serious health issues with big Keith Many spell on the main roster was a forgettable one discounting his time in NXT payback 2020 was as good as it got for limitlesses As that payback saw Lee score his one and only singles win on a WWE premium live event Which came over 14 time world champion Randy Orton? Yes, yeah, I was winning team at the Survivor Series at November But payback stands as the former NXT champion soul one-on-one PLE win from his time on the main roster Considering how many expected to see Keith Lee as a major player Yeah I was hoping so too for years to come it's somewhat remarkable to reflect back on the role that payback now has in Keith Lee's history number seven Mr. Payback sure Michaels is of course known as Mr. WrestleMania and Bret Hart Brock Lesnar and Edge are just some of those in the Conversation when looking for a Mr. SummerSlam if there were to be a Mr. Payback though that man would be Seth Rollins Roman Reigns has the most appearances at payback competing six times But Rollins has a better record where this event is concerned of Roman's six outings He currently stands at four for two for Seth Rollins He and Reigns rotated the WWE tag team titles against Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton in 2013 The shield as a full trio defeated evolution in the main event of payback 14 the architect would successfully defend this world heavyweight title against Orton Reigns and Dean Ambrose in 2015 there was a Rollins win over Samoa Joe in 2017 and Seth's only loss at payback came in 2020 when he and Buddy Murphy were beaten by the Mysterios Mrs. Payback, that sadly really isn't one as the only female to compete more than once is Bailey and she's lost both of her payback matches That's crazy. That's a crazy little fact or my boy. Seth Rollins only lost one time at payback. So He's supposed to have a match with Shinsuke Nakamura for the world heavyweight championship Will he be five and one? I'll get my thoughts and opinions on that on my preview and prediction video It's Randy Orton's awful payback record Oh, it's tied for second place with Rollins when it comes to the most appearances at payback But the Viper remains winless in all Matches as mentioned payback 2020 saw Randall Keith lose to Keith Lee prior to that 2017 Was a loss to Bray Wyatt in the House of Horrors 2016 had Randy Orton come up short in a four-way match for Seth Rollins's world heavyweight title 2014 had Randy part of that evolution that lost to the shield and 2013 had Orton unsuccessfully teamed with Daniel Bryan against the Shields Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns. Yeah payback's not great for Randy Yes, not at all, barely. Less than one hour of women's wrestling. Of these six paybacks so far The women's matches of these events total a less than one hour. To be specific, W3's ladies have wrestled for 57 minutes and 21 seconds cumulatively in the history of payback. AJ Lee defeating Caitlyn for the Divas title at payback 2013 Paige retaining that same title against Alicia Fox in 2014 and Naomi and Tamina beating the Bella twins in 2015 all of those matches clocking at under 10 minutes Alexa Bliss defending the Raw women's title against Bailey in 2017 and Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax beating Bailey and Sasha Banks for the women's tag titles in 2020 those matches would just nudge over that 10 minute mark and the longest women's match in payback history happened in 2016 that 2016 event saw WWE women's champion Charlotte Flair take on Natalya in about which ran for 13 minutes and Four seconds a for those wondering the shortest payback women's match was that Paige and Alicia Fox match with the anti-diva Tapping out foxy after just six minutes and 37 seconds less than one hour across six events That's pretty darn horrendous. Yeah, that's kind of that. Let's That let you know let you know how they How they used to view the women's division To be honest with you, they they still kind of like if he on it they It it could be so much better It can be so much better. It's not that is is what it used to be because they used to not really care about the women at all but in this case, it's like It's like that it's I can't even really describe it's like outside of the main few stars everyone else kind of just Don't really, you know matter to to the to it seems like to the To management, so I mean they are in a better situation You know, but at the same time the women's division could be so much more better. So that's crazy out of all these paybacks The time of wrestling is still under an hour. That's Insanity before the right back connection Line from Randy Savage right back very much had a cup of coffee in the big time. Oh, yeah Dreadful impression. I know But the former skips sheffield Returned from injury in April 2012 with his new right back mantle the powerhouse went on a tear through the roster Well, I saw right back come up short against then WWE champion CMP was definitely over post wrestling in 29 Put the big guy up against John Cena who by that point was once again WWE champ at the first ever payback in 2013 Right back was a major player main event to the case Cena for the WWE title in a three stages of hell match Headline in the pay-per-view against the biggest star in the modern era It doesn't get much bigger than that skip ahead just three years and payback would again be noteworthy for right back But this time for being his final appearance with WWE losing to Kalisto on the events pre-show Right back at his pre-show stopper drunk soon departed the WWE due to a pay dispute from the payback main event to the payback It's quite a journey. Yeah, that is kind of crazy You go from the main event to pre-show status and then you out the company as kind of wow Just three years number three the hitman's last ever sharp shooter payback 2016 has the honor of playing host to Bret Hart's final ever sharp shooter despite being forced to retire in 2000 there were still occasional moments where Brett got physical such as put the shot here on Damien Sandow on a 2014 episode of WWE main event as it stands though the final ever sharp shooter the Bret Hart's career belongs to payback 2016 where the WWE Hall of Famer was in the corner of his niece Natalia I actually challenged Charlotte Flair for the WWE women's title with Flair having her father in a corner The excellence of execution was there to neutralize the nature boy Natalia would get screwed on that night But at least post-match she Simultaneous sharp shooters and what a sight it was One of those little factoids. That's crazy. His last ever performed sharp shooter in WWE. Was that WWE at a WWE event payback? So for those who was able to see that, you know, you got that memory if you remember it The final WWE match for Cody Rhodes at that 2014 event Cody and Goldust came up short against Ryback and Curtis Axel left rock by this loss Cody followed the Owen Hart mantra of enough is enough and it's time for a change only that change initially involved Cody put in Sinkara and then our truth with Goldust with those partnerships not working out Cody then debuted his face painted bodysuit Wearing eccentric persona of Stardust. We've had the legacy Cody. We've had dashing and undashing versions of Cody We've had the Rhodes scholars Cody and payback 2014 It's seen the final match for the Cody Rhodes name The promotion was obviously extremely eager to welcome back to the fold as Cody Rhodes upon the American nightmares returned to WWE last year number one the Line to you once they changed him. I wasn't a big fan of I get it They were kind of following the footsteps of his brother with the whole, you know, you know Stardust Goldust, you know situation I get it But at the same time I it was just one and he made the best of it as much as he possibly could But it just for me as a fan I wasn't a big fan of the character change or what not and ultimately after that he ended up leaving WWE and now He's back and he's one of the biggest stars in the company one of the biggest baby faces in the company So, you know things happen for a reason they were supposed to happen that way and it's all come full circle Truth behind the House of Horrors Oh boy 2017 took place from San Jose, California's SAP Center one match started away from that arena Yes, that would be the House of Horrors match between the late Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton at the time This House of Horrors was depicted based on the time It took the competitors to return to the arena as being approximately a 30 minute drive from the SAP Center in reality The drive from the payback venue to Wyatt's creepy old house would have been closer to 30 hours Probably 30 minutes as picked up at the time by Sports Illustrated The House of Horrors itself was located at 39115 Business 10 Highway Richmond, Missouri Not just that but the property was also listed for sale at the time of payback 2017 How the hell did someone find this information this fucking insane to me With a house available for the fairly modest sum of $36,000 Sure, the house and its outbuildings needed a bit of work But $36,000 seems like a steal for someone wanting to make memories in the one and the same place Where Randy Orton had the refrigerator dropped on him So, that's our 10 things you didn't know about WWE Payback Be sure to like, subscribe, comment, share, turn on the notification bells on and come and give me a follow On Twitter or X at whatcodeshw- Someone found the actual house and it's on sale for like $36,000 or whatever And someone buys that house and you're like, yeah, this was the match for Randy Orton got a refrigerator thrown on him You know, memories in once again, recipes break Wyatt Like I said, for me, payback has never been a pay review I just outwardly wanted to watch But there always would be at least a match or two that I'm interested in and want to check out And hopefully, that's, you know, that changes this Saturday Hopefully, I mean, Randy, I'm not really just like super excited for payback But at the same time, once again, there are some matches I'm looking forward to seeing And I want to see, you know, what they're able to come up with and how things will play out So I'm interested in some of the matches and hopefully the show can entertain me enough Well, I can be like, yo, this is one of the best paybacks WWE's ever produced They've been doing some good work, they have been on a roll still in my opinion Can they actually do this with this B-level type of pay-per-view?
