A major match has been made official for WWE's upcoming Payback pay-per-view.

The show is set to air from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on Saturday, September 2 and WWE have announced that Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn will defend the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships against Judgment Day's Finn Balor and Damian Priest in a Steel City Street Fight.

The Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions have been feuding with Judgment Day throughout the summer and Sami Zayn has faced at least one member of Judgment Day on seven of the last eight episodes of Monday Night Raw going back to July 10. Even his one match that wasn't against a Judgment Day member saw Zayn take on JD McDonagh, who is aligned with Finn Balor.

Kevin Owens has had fewer matches against the faction as he was written off TV in July due to a broken rib. The former Universal Champion returned on the August 21 episode of Raw after one month out of action.

Check out the updated WWE Payback lineup below:

  • Seth Rollins (c) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura - World Heavyweight Championship 
  • Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Raquel Rodriguez - Women's World Championship
  • Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn (c) vs. Judgment Day's Finn Balor & Damian Priest - Steel City Street Fight for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships
