This is free on Sky Sports, I thought all PPV's from Extreme Rules were going to be Box Office exclusives?

From what I can remember their contract was due to expire at the tail end of 2014. They announced the extension to the deal in January but I guess the new terms will begin once it expires.

There'll be "CM Punk" chants all night long without a doubt

 

No doubt. The fans will definitely be hijacking the show. Probably even more than usual. To me, this is a "now or never" opportunity for both Punk and WWE as, if he does not show up at Payback, then that pretty much settles that he is not coming back to the company for the foreseeable future. Hopefully, Daniel Bryan's injury has made WWE realize just how much they are relying on Daniel Bryan and, if Bryan is out of the picture for an extended amount of time, the only guy as over as Bryan (dare I say even more over?) is CM Punk.

I plan on watching a few things from the ppv or special event as they call it. Cesero v Sheamus should be worth a watch & the Evo V Shield.

Brock to return and declare himself world champion

 

Ha, if only. I would love to see that happen.

 

I see one of two things happening at Payback. Either Daniel Bryan will forfeit the title and it will confirm that Bryan will be out longer than they originally thought or Bryan will pull off the neck brace and announce that he has been cleared to compete.

 

If they do end up having Bryan forfeit the title, I will be very interested to see how they determine a new champion. I think it would be interesting to see them award the title to Kane, but I think I would rather see something a bit more original than that. What comes to mind for me is what they did when John Cena was injured in 2007; they vacated the title and, at that year's No Mercy, they had Vince award the title to Randy Orton. Then they had Triple H manipulate Vince and get himself an impromptu title match where Triple H would win the title only for Triple H to lose it to Randy Orton in a Last Man Standing Match in the main event that same night. There are a lot of parallels between what they did in 2007 and what they are looking at dealing with now. They could potentially do something similar. They still have an evil McMahon as an on-screen character, they still have Randy Orton and Triple H on the active roster and, ironically enough, Payback is taking place in Chicago, which is where No Mercy 2007 took place, as well.

 

While they most likely would not do Orton vs. Triple H for the title, they could potentially award the title to someone like Kane or Triple H , then, through some sort of shenanigans, they could have John Cena or some other face worthy of a title shot (Dolph Ziggler would be nice, but that's just wishful thinking) challenge this new champion to an impromptu match for the title. Then they could still have Cena face Bray Wyatt in their scheduled match later in the night and just turn that into a title match (which is what they did in 2007 when Triple H was feuding with Umaga).

 

Not to beat a dead horse, but Daniel Bryan vacating the title would be the perfect opportunity to bring CM Punk back. If I remember correctly, wasn't it reported that Punk walked out because, at the time, they planned on giving the belt to Batista? One would think that, now that WWE has went a different direction with Batista and put the title on Daniel Bryan, this would have appeased Punk (not that Punk is the reason they didn't have Batista win the title) enough to give serious thought to a return. What more could Punk want? He could return and become the champion again and he would be on the road with his new wife (or wife-to-be, I can't remember), AJ Lee. It seems perfect for him and, hopefully, he is just playing hardball.

It's literally impossible that a shaved, weeping dwarf segment exists for any other reason than for Vince McMahon to masturbate to.

 

EDIT: I wonder if WWE have to pay the FA for Wade to use that logo.
