The botched spot saw Evans attempting to land on Orton from the top rope and The Viper failing to execute the RKO. This resulted in an awkward visual. In the end, Orton hit an RKO on Evans and picked up the big win over the youngster.
Orton is one of the most respected stars in pro wrestling today. While he has had some trysts with superstars and called them out in the ring like he once verbally blasted Kofi Kingston for a botch during a match on RAW back in 2009-10, a lot has changed over the past 15 years.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
