WWE RAW suddenly goes off the air before Randy Orton and Gunther were ready; what happened after the show

Tonight's episode of WWE RAW was a solid outing, as Randy Orton defeated Ludwig Kaiser in the main event of the show. It was one of several exciting matches. However, not everything was perfect.

Since WWE RAW has to go off the air at exactly 11 pm EST, the ending of tonight's show was cut off. The broadcast ended during a post-match brawl between Orton and Gunther. The Viper had poked The Ring General in the eye, seemingly setting up for an RKO as the show faded to black.

Randy Orton did nail the RKO on Gunther after WWE RAW went off the air, as can be seen in the clip from a fan at ringside below:

It seems like Orton was supposed to stand tall at the end of the show. WWE's official Twitter/X handle posted an exclusive clip from after the RKO. The Viper posed with the World Heavyweight Championship and threw it to his fallen rival outside the ring.

It remains to be seen if Randy Orton will be able to keep this momentum at Bash in Berlin, where he will challenge Gunther for the world title. Should he dethrone The Ring General, Orton will become a 15-time world champion.
