Randy Orton cut a similar promo to what he did last week and spoke bitterly about Alexa Bliss lighting his face on fire on RAW. While no mention was made about a Royal Rumble match, Randy Orton teased, taking his mask off on RAW.

He said that any compassion he had left is gone, and he capped it off with an RKO to Alexa Bliss to end the show.
