At the end of 2013, WWE decided, for whatever reason, that it was finally time for the pair of World Titles to be reunited to create one unified top championship for the company.

In order to try to add intrigue to the usually good, but flat, final pay-per-view offering of the year, they used the show’s namesake match as the contest to determine the promotion’s sole champion.

Is this man the funniest man in wrestling?

The two men had an extremely brutal match, which was the second-to-last of their long rivalry (the final one was a rematch for the new unified WWE World Heavyweight Championship the next month at the Royal Rumble PPV).

It ended when John Cena, who had been handcuffed to the turnbuckle, had to undo the middle rope in order to climb the ladder and stop Orton from claiming the pair of championship belts.

Even though he used the turnbuckle and ropes as a weapon when he climbed, it turned out to be Cena’s downfall, as Orton pulled the ropes (that Cena was still tethered to) to pull Cena down, in a brutal-looking spot, into the corner of a table.
