Isenberg and Killam Predict WWE Payback: What Should and Will Happen

June 16, 2013

John Cena vs. Ryback in a Three Stages of Hell Match

What SHOULD happen:

Josh Isenberg: I am not a fan of either of these guys. What should happen is CM Punk come out at the third stage and toss both guys into the Ambulance knocked out cold and stand on top of it chanting and cheering with his hometown. This would give the fans a reason to watch WWE Raw the next night, create more of a buzz for Punk's return, and actually be original. Either this or Ryback needs to win the title. If he loses, that is it for him… if it already isn't over for the guy. I could care less to who wins this match.

Mike Killam: Ryback should win the WWE Championship. Ryback should have won the WWE Championship in 2012. Ryback should have defeated Mark Henry at WrestleMania. WWE SHOULD BE doing just about anything other than what they have been doing with Ryback since his debut. Do I want him to win? Do I want him to represent Raw as the WWE Champion? Hell no. But that's because WWE, by and large, can't resist turning every monster heel into a chicken-shit coward that can't win a big match to save his life. Next up, the infamous Rey Mysterio job!

What WILL happen:

Josh Isenberg: Ryback will win the first stage of the match. John Cena will win the second match, and it will come down to an Ambulance Match. The outcome will most likely be John Cena overcoming the odds and showcasing that he is stronger and smarter than Ryback. Cena stands tall.

Mike Killam: I will be squarely in the corner of John Cena during this WWE Championship match, and I actually believe he's going to pull this one out. I know, shocking… The fans will probably hate both men; Casimir Pulaski couldn't get the Windy City to like John Cena. What happens to Ryback after this Sunday, I have no idea, but in all honestly if they wanted me to care, they should have made better decisions for the past nine months. It's a Three Stages of Hell match, so you know there will be the obligatory trade off in the first two contests. Maybe, if we're really lucky, CM Punk will show his mug in the main event instead, throw them both in the ambulance, and drive it into the Chicago River.

Winner: John Cena
