Summary

Solomonster is back with a FULL review of WWE Payback 2020, a largely good show that really did not need to happen one week after Summerslam. Roman Reigns challenges for the Universal championship, did The Fiend end up serving as a transitional champion? Sasha Banks and Bayley defend their Women's Tag Team Titles, is The Boss now NO BELTS BANKS? Keith Lee looks to regroup after a forgettable Raw debut, Matt Riddle is now THE BODACIOUS BAREFOOT BRO, Michael Cole angers Solomonster and comparing Barorn Corbin to Chinese food. This is one hell of a stream.

0:00.0	This is your WWE Payback 2020 review right here on the solemn
0:05.3	monster sounds of YouTube channel I am the solemn monster it is Sunday August 30th
0:09.9	2020 the final stream, the final pay-per-view, for a very packed month of August.
0:17.8	And I am so happy that you guys have chosen me for your payback coverage here tonight, one week Summer Slam they didn't waste any time they come right back with another pay-per-view and I think the verdict on this pay-per-view this was a very middle-of road show overall I think in terms of in
0:35.9	ring action this was not a show that was really designed to have a whole bunch of
0:40.3	great matches when this show was over I looked back and I said it moved a
0:45.1	whole bunch of stories along. We had some new champions crowned. We had Randy
0:49.5	Orton putting over Keith Lee, which was a big deal. The Golden Role models take one more step towards the
0:55.8	inevitable breakup that we've seen coming for about six and a half years now. It feels like that's
1:00.6	how long this has been going on for. So they moved all those stories
1:04.1	along but you know there really wasn't anything spectacular about this show.
1:08.2	There really was no need for this show. There were things that could have played itself out over the
1:14.8	next several weeks until Clash of Champions, which they gave two dates for by the way.
1:20.3	One was right, one was wrong. You guess which one was right. I'll tell you which one was right.
1:25.4	There was stuff here that could have happened at Summer Slam. This was an experiment. They were trying something new.
1:32.1	Honestly, to me, this was probably a slight thumbs up.
1:35.0	There really wasn't anything horrendous on the show,
1:38.0	aside from some thoughts I have on the main event,
1:40.0	which we will get into.
1:42.0	They got to the right place. They got to the right
