Payback 2017 Randy Orton v Bray Wyatt

At WWE Payback, Randy Orton will put the WWE Championship on the line against Bray Wyatt in the portentous unknown that is a House of Horrors Match.

After Orton overcame Wyatt and his mystical forces at WrestleMania to recapture the WWE Title, he was quickly dragged back into The Reaper of Souls’ wicked agenda.

Seemingly obsessed with regaining the WWE Championship, Wyatt interrupted the new titleholder on the first SmackDown LIVE after The Ultimate Thrill Ride to make it clear that he wasn’t done with The Apex Predator. Instead, he challenged his adversary to the first-ever House of Horrors Match. Admittedly unaware of what he was getting himself into, Orton agreed to again take on the mystical Superstar.

But what exactly is a House of Horrors Match? Moreover, as of now, Wyatt is on Raw and Orton remains on SmackDown LIVE. Could this be the last time the two Superstars clash in their epic rivalry? With the match being the maniacal brainchild of Wyatt, will The New Face of Fear have a distinct advantage? Or, will The Viper’s relentless spirit and resolve lead him to triumphing yet again and retaining his WWE Championship?
