10:54 p.m. EDT - A really good match with a predictable finish. Triple H comes out to congratulate Rollins, who retains the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at a second straight PPV.

10:52 p.m. EDT - After Kane takes out Reigns and Ambrose, it's Orton and Rollins in the ring. Orton hits Kane with an RKO, but Rollins hits Orton with a Pedigree and gets the win.

10:51 p.m. EDT - It was beautiful while it lasted.

10:50 p.m. EDT - Reigns hits Ambrose with a spear, but Rollins gets back in the ring in time to break the count. Now it's Reigns and Rollins fighting outside of the ring.

10:47 p.m. EDT - With just Reigns and Ambrose left standing, the two friends are going at it in the middle of the ring.

10:45 p.m. EDT - Reigns and Ambrose continue to work together, as they powerbomb Kane on top of Rollins. This crowd is hot, asking for them to do it one more time. They oblige and the table breaks. Awesome spot. Really cool match so far.

10:43 p.m. EDT - It's a Shield reunion! Rollins, Ambrose and Reigns put Orton threw a table with the triple powerbomb.

10:41 p.m. EDT - This match is being booked for Rollins to win. He continues to take punishment and have his goons interfere. He'll end up stealing a victory in about 10 minutes.

10:40 p.m. EDT - After Ambrose hit Rollins with Dirty Deeds, Kane interfered again. Now it's Orton on the attack against the champ.

10:37 p.m. EDT - Looks like Kane has made his choice. He stopped Reigns from hitting a Superman Punch, throwing him into the barricade. He also attacked Ambrose.

10:35 p.m. EDT - Ambrose and Reigns are working together on Rollins. Only The Shield in the ring.

10:32 p.m. EDT - The match starts with J&J Security attacking Ambrose and Reigns. Rollins goes after Orton.

10:28 p.m. EDT - Seth Rollins walks out to the ring where Reigns, Orton and Ambrose wait. Should be interesting to see if we get a spot where all three members of The Shield work together.

10:25 p.m. EDT - Before the match begins, Kane's music hits and he walks towards the ring. Last PPV ended with Kane helping Rollins retain the title, and Payback might end the same way.

10:23 p.m. EDT - A look at Neville's Red Arrow on Barrett.

10:20 p.m. EDT - The main event between Rollins, Reigns, Orton and Ambrose is next to close the show. Kane wishes Rollins luck backstage. If Rollins loses the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, Kane loses his job as Director of Operations.

10:17 p.m. EDT - Neville fights back and hits Barrett with the Red Arrow. He's really selling a leg injury. Neville is always exciting to watch, but I wish the match had a better finish.

10:14 p.m. EDT - Odd ending. Neville wins via count out. Barrett basically gave up and didn't get back in the ring on time. Then Barrett ambushes Neville and starts beating him up after the match.

10:10 p.m. EDT - Neville hasn't had a bad match since being called up from NXT, and the trend is continuing tonight.

10:04 p.m. EDT - Neville vs. Barrett is the final match before the main event. These two have had a few good matches against each other in recent weeks.

9:48 p.m. EDT - Byron Saxton interviews The New Day as they celebrate and drink champagne. He tells them they'll be defending their titles at Elimination Chamber.

9:46 p.m. EDT - Having a feud with Cena is good for up-and-coming stars like Rusev, but it isn't great when they lose three matches in a row. Wyatt hasn't been the same since he was beaten by Cena twice last year.

9:43 p.m. EDT - Rusev was saying something in Bulgarian before Lana took the mic. A good way to keep Rusev looking strong, but this feud needs to end. Four matches is enough, and this wasn't their most exciting.

9:42 p.m. EDT - Rusev detaches the top rope from the ring. Cena uses it against him, using it to cover Rusev's eyes while he has him in the STF. Rusev refuses to give up, but Lana takes the mic and tells the ref that Rusev quits. Cena wins.

9:39 p.m. EDT - Rusev gets Cena in the Accolade. Cena passes out and Rusev thinks he's won, but the match isn't over.

9:29 p.m. EDT - Rusev and Cena still going at it, though it hasn't been the most exciting match on the card.

9:27 p.m. EDT - Cena puts Rusev through the barricade, but the match continues.

9:26 p.m. EDT - Cena comes out of nowhere and delivers an Attitude Adjustment to Rusev onto the steel steps, which are in the middle of the ring.

9:23 p.m. EDT - The ref keeps asking Cena if he wants to quit, but it seems clear this match won't end until Lana gets involved.

9:20 p.m. EDT - Cena hasn't gotten any offense in. As he lies on the ground, Rusev waves the Russian flag.

9:16 p.m. EDT - Chants of "We Want Lana" break out, and Rusev tells Lana to sit down by the commentary table.

9:14 p.m. EDT - Rusev grabs the mic at the start of the match, telling Cena to quit right now to spare himself the pain. Chants of "USA! USA!" break out, and Cena attacks Rusev.

9:13 p.m. EDT - Cena comes out a lot of cheers, but also to fans singing "John Cena Sucks" to the tune of his theme music.

9:08 p.m. EDT - Rusev vs. Cena is next. Probably the easiest call of the night. There's no way Cena says "I Quit!"

9:07 p.m. EDT - Ziggler isn't in great shape after his match with Sheamus.

9:06 p.m. EDT - Ryback has a lot of critics, but he showed something against Wyatt.

9:04 p.m. EDT - Wyatt hits Sister Abigail and gets the pin after Ryback was sent into an exposed turnbuckle. Surprisingly good match.

9:02 p.m. EDT - Ryback with a splash of the top rope, but Bray kicks out at two. The announcers selling Ryback's rib injury from earlier in the match. Definitely never seen Ryback go off the top rope.

9:00 p.m. EDT. - Ryback and Wyatt fighting with reckless abandon.

8:57 p.m. EDT - Both Wyatt and Ryback lying outside of the ring. Ryback acting like he can't breathe. Wyatt gets back into the ring an Wyatt gets back in just enough to break the 10-count.

8:54 p.m. EDT - A couple of hard collisions in this match. The styles of Wyatt and Ryback could make for a pretty good match.

8:51 p.m. EDT - There seems to be some confusion as to why this feud began.

8:48 p.m. EDT - Ryback vs. Wyatt is next.

8:45 p.m. EDT - Xavier Woods pins Cesaro for the win, even though he wasn't in the match. The ref didn't see which member of The New Day got the pin.

8:41 p.m. EDT - Cesaro delivering multiple uppercuts to Kofi in the corner, then he sends Kofi into Big E with a Gorilla Press. Highlight of the night so far.

8:39 p.m. EDT - Were tied at 1-1 as Kofi pins Kidd.

8:37 p.m. EDT - Cool spot as Big E flies in between the ropes and takes out Cesaro. Now Kidd is left to fend for himself against Kofi and Xavier Woods.

8:33 p.m. EDT - Cesaro and Kidd get the first pinfall, using the Giant Swing and Dropkick. Remember, this is a 2-out-of-3 falls match.

8:31 p.m. EDT - Here are Tyson Kidd and Cesaro for the tag team title match. The New Day likely will keep the titles.

8:30 p.m. EDT - Resounding "New Day Sucks" chants from the crowd. Incredible how The New Day has gone from one of the worst babyfaces in the company to one of the top heels in such a short time.

8:28 p.m. EDT - The New Day comes out to boos. They cut a promo about being positive, as Big E calls the people of Baltimore fat and unattractive. He even calls out Adam Jones of the Baltimore Orioles, talking about how the O's haven't won a title in 32 years.

8:26 p.m. EDT - Ziggler always looks manages to look great in a loss.

8:21 p.m. EDT - Ziggler gets cut open after hitting Sheamus with a head-butt. Sheamus wins clean after hitting Ziggler with a Brogue Kick. Blood gushing from Ziggler's head.

8:19 p.m. EDT - After hitting Ziggler with White Noise, Sheamus tried to make him tap out with the Cloverleaf submission. Ziggler makes his way to the ropes, but Sheamus is in control. Hard-hitting match. Ziggler selling like a champ as always.

8:16 p.m. EDT - Well Ziggler made Sheamus finally obey the "Kiss Me Arse" stipulation, lifting up his tights and rubbing his backside into Sheamus. Sheamus ran to the commentary table and washed his mouth out with water.

8:14 p.m. EDT - After getting hit with a DDT, Sheamus kicks out. Stone Cold recently complained about too many wrestlers using the DDT, since none of them ever end a match.

8:12 p.m. EDT - Sheamus taking his time, continuing to kick Ziggler when he's down. Throwing in a few headlocks and an Irish Curse Backbreaker.

8:10 p.m. EDT - Sheamus gets Ziggler back, sending him over the ropes and forcing him to favor his right knee. Sheamus concentrating on the knee, kicking Ziggler as he lies down.

8:07 p.m. EDT - Ziggler comes out to a decent pop.

8:05 p.m. EDT - Sheamus comes out first. Looks like his match vs. Ziggler is the first of the official PPV. I don't think Ziggler beats him for a second straight PPV.

8:03 p.m. EDT - Payback 2o14 was the last time The Shield had a match together. At Payback 2015, all three members will face each other with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship on the line.

8:00 p.m. EDT - The PPV is about to start. Graves says Rollins will retain, while Saxton picks Orton. Booker T just ignored the question.

7:58 p.m. EDT - The entrance was longer than the match itself.

7:56 p.m. EDT - Well that was quick. The Ascension wins after using their Fall of Man finisher. Mandow was pinned by Viktor after Conor interfered and didn't allow him to jump of the top rope to use his flying elbow drop.

7:54 p.m. EDT - Axel actually does a good Hulk Hogan impression. He didn't get much offense in, and here comes Mandow to save the day.

7:52 p.m. EDT - This match won't last long. The PPV starts in eight minutes. Axel is in full Hogan garb, even wearing a bandana and a fake mustache.

7:51 p.m. EDT - Damien Sandow got over as Mizdow, though not sure he'll be able to do the same with his Macho Man impersonation. But Mandow and Axel both get a pretty good reaction when their music hits.

7:49 p.m. EDT - The Ascension comes out for their match with the Axel and Mandow. Hard to imagine this version of the Mega Powers losing.

7:47 p.m. EDT - Sheamus answering Twitter questions backstage. After talking about his hair, potential tag team partners and what he would do if he wasn't a wrestler, he says Ziggler got lucky at Extreme Rules and will be lucky if he lasts 18 seconds in their match tonight.

7:44 p.m. EDT - The panel is talking about Bray Wyatt vs. Ryback. Wyatt needs this win desperately. His promos are starting to become a little tired, and he hasn't had a PPV match since he lost to The Undertaker at WrestleMania.

7:42 p.m. EDT - There had been rumors that there was some heat between Stone Cold and WWE. Austin refuted those reports, and there don't seem to be any issues.

7:39 p.m. EDT - Stone Cold's podcast is coming back to the WWE Network on June 1 with guest Paul Heyman. Heyman is a great podcast guest, and he's been interviewed by Austin a few times.

7:37 p.m. EDT - R-Truth makes his comeback after Stardust gets distracted when he takes R-Truth's glove. R-Truth gets the win with a face plant. Not a bad match.

7:34 p.m. EDT - Stardust controlling the match. The crowd is fairly lively, considering they're watching a "bonus" match that doesn't have any importance.

7:31 p.m. EDT - R-Truth starts the match by slapping Stardust in the face a few times. Stardust lost to R-Truth in the first round of the King of the Ring tournament.

7:29 p.m. EDT - Looks like it will be R-Truth vs. Stardust.

7:27 p.m. EDT - We have our first match of the night, which wasn't listed on the official match card. R-Truth comes out to the ring. I feel like he hasn't been on TV since WrestleMania.

7:25 p.m. EDT - If Bryan is healthy enough to come back, he's going to have to change his wrestling style, at least somewhat.

7:24 p.m. EDT - Eden Stiles asks Brie Bella about Bryan's injuries and her match at Payback. Brie chokes up when talking about Bryan, and Nikki Bella says Naomi will never be the Divas Champion. The Bella Twins will face Naomi and Tamina later tonight.

7:20 p.m. EDT - Bryan gave up the Intercontinental Championship on Monday, and a match for the title will be held at Elimination Chamber in two weeks. A few guys have a chance to win it. Ziggler, Sheamus and Barrett are probably the favorites, along with Neville as a dark-horse candidate.

7:18 p.m. EDT - WWE showing Daniel Bryan's speech from Monday night. Sucks that he hasn't been right for the past year and could be out for a while. At least he got his WrestleMania moment last year.

7:15 p.m. EDT - Rusev has lost some of his luster since he was beaten at WrestleMania 31, but he still has a bright future. He could find himself in the WWE World Heavyweight Championship picture sometime before WrestleMania 32.

7:13 p.m. EDT - The panel is discussing the relationship between Rusev and Lana. Lana has gotten so many cheers that WWE is almost forced to separate them.

7:11 p.m. EDT - A video package about the feud between John Cena and Rusev is playing. Can't imagine there's much of a chance WWE puts the belt back on Rusev. He and Lana are probably headed their separate ways, and Lana could be involved in the finish.

7:07 p.m. EDT - Dolph Ziggler cuts a good promo on Sheamus. He says tonight's match is about beating Sheamus, not just stealing the show.

7:06 p.m. EDT - Kane will no longer be the Director of Operations if Seth Rollins loses the title. Rollins is a heay favorite to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match. Click here to see betting odds for the PPV.
