Was Bryan and Barrett going to originally be the pre-show match or did they bump something else and move it there when they had to insert Neville?

US Championship "I Quit" match at Payback: John Cena vs Rusev

 

[rbv13]

I wonder what Lana "had to do" to get that matched signed. What happens behind closed doors......

Originally was the Tag Title match. It got bumped once it was reported Bryan couldn't compete.

The Tag title match was supposed to be on the pre-show.

 

[Bernkastel]

They are going to bury Rusev for 3 PPVs in a row?

I bet he quits in Russian so it somehow doesn't count. And we get Cena/Rusev 4.

 

[rbv13]

Did I miss Mizdow vs Miz? or are they just not doing it tonight?

RAW was the blow off. Miz made his announcement about going back to Hollywood on the biggest possible platform, the app.

 

[One Punch Doug Crashin]

No, the only way to win is by Pinfall or Submission. Kane makes sure of that....

Interesting question. Well it is Extreme Rules, after all. The one night of the year its allowed to be non-PG.

 

[Slash-LN]

Ah. Okay.
I thought maybe they've had to do some filler to make up for that but probably not.

 

[L@RISANO]

Nah I was saying Reigns being carried in matches shouldn't be an insult. Someone has to take the lead in matches. Letting the veterans in those matches take the lead isn't a bad thing if Reigns can deliver on his spots.

Oh, that "Pep analogy" wasn't directed at you whatsoever, Alastor. Trust me.


And generally, 'being carried' is used as an insult by the majority.

 

[OYDK]

Passing thought; why wouldn't Rusev go over tonight? Are they really going to have him lose 3 PPV matches in a row?

New Cena T-shirts.

Actually Cena/Rusev 5. They fought at Fastlane as well. Wow this feud ha stretched.

 

[rbv13]

It would be pretty cool to see the Authority/anyone cuff Orton to the cage and then raise it. While he is hanging there like a piñata beat his ass with kendo sticks.

Oh, yeah. I wasn't counting the "future" match. Not that I wouldn't mind as they have really good chemistry. The only other person I'd rather see Rusev fight than Cena is Lesnar.

They will use it for the breakup between Lana and Rusev. Some shenanigans are in store.

I see that, but still. Would have been nice to not have Rusev go from one extreme to the next in terms of wins and losses.

Lesnar is an uber-Republican. The feud writes itself. Book it.

 

[Bernkastel]

LOL @ the reverse Cena chant for Rollins.

I really don't see the losses as a negative for Rusev. The distractions by Lana give him a bit to fall back on. He has looked great in each outing. Plus he continues to crush his other opponents. However it will be interesting to see how they handle the I Quit stipulation.

 

[L@RISANO]

Any chance Rollins could be Bray's next target?

 

[One Punch Doug Crashin]

There goes a tooth!

 

[Bernkastel]

Bray might actually win a feud as a face.

 

[rbv13]

I was really hoping it will/would be Orton or Rollins.
