Randy Orton definitely brutalized Matt Hardy much worse than Edge a few weeks ago when he decided to drag him out of the ring and attack him on the steel steps after an RKO and a number of chair shots in the ring.

Orton delivered a conchairto on the steps before looking as though he was going to walk away and leave it, but one referee ran over to Orton whilst another was seen whispering to Matt Hardy who was already knocked out on the steps.

Hardy was then dragged back up onto the steps and another conchairto was delivered to the helpless star, which made it seem as though this wasn't originally supposed to happen. Was Orton only going to deliver one chair shot to Hardy's head but Vince decided to call an audible since this is Hardy's last WWE show?

This way Hardy went out on the most brutal note possible and it made it look as though Orton didn't want to do it but decided to give in to his inner demons.
