![]() ![]() This was also the time where WWE were heavily teasing the Rusev/Lana split, which at the time was gaining some momentum and fans were looking forward to seeing how it would play out. Despite that hot story though fans didn’t expect a great match between Cena and Rusev, especially considering the matches beforehand mainly Extreme Rules with the Russian Chain debacle. But Cena and Rusev were able to come together and prove everybody wrong with an impressive brawl including spots like using a steel barricade and an STF with the ropes.Īlthough the finish with Lana saying that Rusev was saying I-Quit in Bulgarian (which he wasn’t) didn’t hold up, the actual bout between Cena and Rusev certainly did, as they tore it up.īack to John Cena, we rewind one full year where Cena took on an entirely different beast than Rusev. We start off with the old USA vs Foreign Heel story, as we recall the rivalry between “The Face Of WWE” John Cena and the “Bulgarian Brute” Rusev from early 2015.Īnd while the rivalry was admittedly not the best, this bout at Payback 2015 really surpassed its expectations. Previously Rusev had scored a controversial win over Cena at Fast Lane before Cena then toppled him in the rematch at WrestleMania to become the United States Champion. Another contest, a Russian Chain Match at Extreme Rules still didn’t settle the issue, so Rusev and Cena finally put their feud to bed in an I Quit Match for the United States Championship at Payback. The show will feature bouts including Roman Reigns vs AJ Styles, Sami Zayn vs Kevin Owens, Charlotte vs Natayla and Dean Ambrose vs Chris Jericho. With a solid build and an exciting card, it will look to follow up on some great Payback moments from the last three years. Since 2013, WWE has provided fans with three great Payback PPV’s no matter what others will have you think, and those shows have been filled with some awesome moments. So let’s look back at the Top 10: WWE Payback Moments and see which ranked as the best. We take a look at the Top 10 WWE Payback moments in anticipation of the 4th edition of WWE’s annual PPV, Payback, in front of one of wrestling’s hottest crowds – Chicago, IL.
