[NOISE] [SOUND]
[NOISE]
>> And remember what Daniel Bryan said
that he had to send, my God, nearly the RKO.
>> Orton looking to end things early here and The Viper giving chase.
>> On the prowl here and drops Owens.
>> No disqualification, anything goes.
>> Last week, Orton was afraid of what he was gonna do to Kevin Owens and
Sami Zayn after Survivor Series, so Daniel Bryan sent them home.
>> Daniel Bryan was afraid of what Randy Orton might do.
>> And now Randy Orton with that wild eyed look.
>> Watch out, watch out, watch out. >> My God,
Kevin Owens sent over announce desk.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Orton can attack at will here,
that does not bode well for Kevin Owens.
>> And look at Randy Orton hammering away on the face of Kevin Owens.
>> Great rights, right to the eyebrow of Owens and
right back over the announce table goes Kevin.
>> Think about the position that Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn put Randy Orton and
company in at Survivor Series just a few weeks ago.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> This is retribution.
>> Kevin Owens is- >> And the steel stairs.
>> Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn put their own selfish desires ahead of the entire
SmackDown roster, which includes Randy Orton.
>> [NOISE] >> And now he's paying for it.
>> This is a side of Randy Orton we only see every so often, and it is malicious.
>> There is a reason Orton was sent home last week, there is a reason.
>> My God, guys, look out.
>> And Kevin Owens is catching a beating right now from the 13-time world champion.
>> Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan
knew what Orton was capable of.
>> Uh-oh, Randy Orton found a kendo stick.
>> No disqualification, anything goes. >> [NOISE]
>> We'd see the kendo stick splinter
when Randy cracked Kevin across the spine.
>> [NOISE] >> See the sadistic smile on the face of
The Apex Predator.
>> [NOISE] >> Like Orton really needs
a weapon to be sadistic.
>> That's what Sami Zayn was talking to Daniel Bryan about.
>> My God!
>> Randy just snapped the kendo stick.
>> It's all legal, no disqualification.
>> This is what happens when you tick off The Viper.
>> And there's another one.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> That's what Zayn was worried about,
told Daniel Bryan, Owens could get seriously injured here tonight.
His career could be in jeopardy.
>> This is all what happens when you tick off Shane McMahon, obviously.
>> This is what happens when you tick off the entire roster of SmackDown.
>> Rapid fire.
>> [NOISE] >> Now you see why Kevin was so
upset that Sami Zayn wouldn't be here at ringside.
>> [NOISE] >> And now Randy Orton,
the initial storm here, and now he can take his time tearing apart Kevin Owens.
>> There are few superstars in WWE history with the capability of being as
sadistic as Randy Orton.
There was a time- >> Into the barricade.
>> Don't forget there was
a time when Randy Orton called himself the Legend Killer.
There was a time when Randy Orton beat up the father of John Cena.
There is no limit to what Randy Orton is capable of doing if unleashed.
>> Wait a minute.
>> [NOISE] >> Kevin Owens has a kendo stick
of his own.
I don't think Randy realizes it.
>> [NOISE] >> Randy Orton in pursuit.
>> Right to the hamstring.
>> And Kevin Owens with a moment, able to turn it around here on Orton.
>> Come on Owens.
>> [NOISE] >> And
that is all Kevin Owens needs, so opportunistic.
>> You can see the rage on the face of Owens.
>> And a fall away slam into the barricade.
Kevin Owens and Randy Orton, No Disqualification Match.
>> Get up, Randy.
>> Pure malice on display here on SmackDown LIVE.
Kevin Owens and Randy Orton in a no disqualification match, my God.
>> Right where the shoulder meets the neck there with a kendo stick.
>> Let's not forget the guardian angel of Kevin Owens,
Sami Zayn has been barred from ringside.
>> You can see the welts and the bruises starting to build on Kevin Owens.
And Randy Orton in this battle of attrition.
>> Now Owens to cover him and the kickout by Randy Orton.
>> Only way to win the match is by pinfall or submission inside the ring,
and now look at Owens.
>> I have to give credit where it's due.
Kevin was able to weather the early storm of The Viper, and it was strong.
>> [LAUGH] it's all legal, the thumb to the eye.
>> Better instincts of Orton.
Randy knows a shortcut or two around the ring.
>> And Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon,
they knew exactly what they were doing when they put Randy Orton into this match.
They knew what he was capable of.
>> You're absolutely right, if you're not gonna fire Kevin but you wanna punish him,
Randy Orton is a great punisher.
>> And now, Owens with a senton.
Now the cover, can he put away Orton?
And a kick out.
>> You can't help but consider the flip side though.
If somehow Kevin Owens were able to find a way to beat Randy Orton here tonight.
>> Kevin Owens Sami Zane, they'd been telling Shane McMahon and
Daniel Bryan about their worth here on SmackDown LIVE.
But they're the top two superstars.
>> A lot of people agree that they are definitely valuable.
When I say top two, maybe not, but definitely Sami Zayn and
Kevin Owens deserve to be part of SmackDown LIVE.
They are incredibly talented competitors.
Just ask Randy Orton right now.
>> Now Daniel Bryan made a fair point, if you fire Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens, well,
just went off to Monday Night RAW.
>> Absolutely and that's a smart business decision.
>> Look at Orton trying to reach out for the kendo stick, shot to the mid section.
And Owens turns it in his favor, now into the cover on the Viper and a kick out.
>> We talked about how sadistic Randy Orton is.
But if you look at a guy like Kevin Owens,
he is showing you why he can be just as sadistic.
>> It's just the beginning of October guys,
we saw the Hell in a Cell match between Shane McMahon and Kevin Owens.
Owens blotted it in that match, and won because of Sami Zayn.
>> Kevin Owens brings it every night.
It's the only way Owens knows how to compete, 100%.
>> He brings it, but he also brings a lot of excuses every week.
>> You don't have to like him, but
you have to respect what Kevin Owens is capable of inside that ring.
I guarantee you, Randy is learning to respect KO right now.
>> And now Owens, whoops, swing and a miss.
And Randy Orton.
>> And now Orton trying to find a way back with a DDT.
Orton looks like he's out.
>> This is it.
>> Here's the cover by Owens and a kick out.
>> [NOISE] >> Kevin Owens very,
very close to overcoming the odds much like Sami Zayn did last week, might I add.
Sami Zayn had the deck stacked against him.
The New Day versus Owens and Zayn, and Zayn picked up a pinfall.
>> Zayn got lucky because of the circumstances.
>> Kevin Owens tossing aside the kendo stick.
Look out, and the cannonball comes up empty.
>> Great instincts on the 13 time champion Randy Orton.
>> And Kevin Owens with a costly miss there.
Now Randy Orton is back up to his feet.
>> [NOISE] >> And
this is where Orton turns things around.
>> [NOISE] >> And
the WWE Universe is calling for and Randy Orton.
A measure of payback after what happened at Survivor Series.
Owens and Zayn costing his Men's SmackDown team.
Now look at these two exchanging back and forth here,
precarious position for Kevin Owens.
>> Looks like Orton's getting the best of it.
>> You're right, orton with a series of headbutts.
The Viper just going off.
>> [NOISE] >> Look at this.
>> Bad intentions in mind.
>> Randy Orton going up top here on Owens.
And Orton with a superplex.
>> Thunderous superplex, if Orton can make the cover, Owens is finished.
>> Owens is down, Randy Orton trying to get to the cover.
>> There's the cover.
>> Flexes himself, and Owens is still in this fight.
>> At what point in the match does the Viper find God creeping into his mind?
Because from this elevation, look at the height, look at the impact.
>> Orton, sacrificing himself in the process, but I think if you asked him,
he'd tell you it's well worth it.
>> That superplex out of the playbook of his hall of fame father, Cowboy Bob Orton.
Now Randy Orton starting to stalk Kevin Owens, has turned this match in his favor.
The elbow right on the jaw and
Owens trying to stay alive in this No Disqualification.
And now the cover, off the powerslam and a kick out.
>> Orton was able to strike continually, but
you can still just see Randy trying to shake off the cobwebs.
>> There you see a desperate Kevin Owens charging The Viper.
And Orton so fast, delivering a power slam, but
it wasn't enough to keep KO down for three.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> This is where Randy is at his best,
with the ability to stalk.
That's why they call him the Apex Predator.
>> Yeah, look at the positioning too, Kevin Owens.
>> And Randy Orton is preying right where he wants him.
Draping out, wait a minute.
>> Look out.
>> Now, Owens sending Orton, he's on the top rope.
>> Randy now dragging Kevin out.
>> And again, Randy Orton, no disqualification match,
no count outs here in this, he can do whatever he wants.
>> Everything is a weapon for Randy Orton.
>> Everything is a weapon and everything is absolutely legal.
>> And into the barricade!
>> And Kevin Owens is stunned here by Orton.
And Orton, my God.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> And Owens onto the table.
>> [NOISE] >> Kevin Owens' spine just
launched into the announce table.
>> Randy Orton has no regard for the health of Kevin Owens.
>> Look at the sick smile on the face of Randy Orton, loving every moment of this.
>> Now tosses Kevin Owens back inside the ring.
>> Uh-oh.
>> And Randy Orton is going back to that place.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> That place means bad intention.
>> And Owens able to avoid disaster.
>> [NOISE] >> Look at Owens trying to take off again
just like he did last week.
>> I don't blame Kevin, maybe Kevin Owens is in unwinnable situation right now,
he's taken a beating.
>> Well, he better get out.
>> With The Viper, one of the best of all time.
>> And Randy Orton on the pursuit here, into the WWE Universe here against Owens.
There will be no escape tonight for Kevin Owens.
>> No disqualification match here on SmackDown Live and
Randy Orton is remorseless.
>> Kevin Owens is running on fumes right now, beaten just a step past senseless.
>> Kill him!
>> And Kevin Owens trying to bag off here Randy Orton and
he's not gonna find any safe quarter.
>> I'm not entirely sure Kevin knows where he's at right now.
>> [NOISE] >> And
Randy Orton knows exactly where he is and exactly what he wants to do.
And that is just, my God.
>> Whoa, whoa!
>> Sami Zayn from behind with a steal chair.
>> Sami Zayn was brought from ringside.
>> They're not technically at ringside, Byron.
>> Don't give me technicalities, Zayn shouldn't be out here.
>> It's still a no disqualification match.
>> [NOISE] >> And it's Sami Zayn with a steel chair.
>> Right across the hamstring of Orton.
>> Yeah, Zayn will take off.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> I can be your first little buddy,
a guardian angel of Kevin Owens pays dividends once again.
Guardian angel knew that his best friend was getting destroyed by The Viper.
>> Yeah, that's what guardian angels do, Byron.
>> And Kevin Owens, just like that,
a second life here in this melee here against Randy Orton.
>> [NOISE] >> Orton can barely stand.
>> [NOISE] >> Kevin Owens
would just pick up the pieces now, right?
>> And now Kevin Owens tossing Orton back inside the ring.
Decision has to happen inside the ring in this no disqualification match.
>> [NOISE] >> Sami Zayn there-
>> No, no, no.
>> Randy Orton got him on the ropes and a DDT.
>> Maybe not enough damage.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> You
don't win 13 World Championsips without having guts and tenacity,
as we are learning that Randy Orton has in spades.
>> Wheel and all, Randy Orton is back on his feet.
Randy Orton ready to turn in.
>> At staring down Kevin Owens, Randy Orton,
can he put him away here?
>> Kevin Owens, whoa, almost caught him, KO and a shot there by Owen.
>> That previously injured leg, Orton couldn't plan to deliver the RKO.
Owens exploiting- >> Super Kick.
>> And now Orton's down, Orton is down and Owens is going up.
>> No. >> Owens is going up to the top rope here.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Randy Orton laid out by KO.
>> And a Frog Splash from up top.
It's the cover.
>> One, two, three.
[SOUND] >> And he's able to pull away Randy Orton.
>> Here is your winner, Kevin Owens.
[MUSIC]
>> Thanks to his guardian angel, Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens survived.
[MUSIC]
Here you see Orton in control but the guardian angel strikes again.
Sami Zayn taking out the left leg of Randy Orton with a steel chair.
Orton couldn't plant for the RKO.
Kevin always aware of the situation, makes Orton pay.
You gotta wonder gentlemen, what kind of repercussions await Kevin and
Sammy after tonight.
[MUSIC]
But it doesn't matter about next week, it only matters about now.
Kevin Owens is victorious on SmackDown LIVE.
