WWE Raw kicks off with Randy Orton sitting in a chair backstage. He
says he didn’t leave Clash of Champions with the WWE Championship.
Instead, he left in an ambulance. He doesn’t remember much but he
does remember what happened in his match with Drew McIntyre. He
remembers Big Show chokeslaming him. He remembers being ambushed by
Christian. He remembers Shawn Michaels kicking him right between the
eyes. And he remembers McIntyre kicking him and closing the
ambulance door with Ric Flair driving it.
Orton says in those moments, he saw nothing but complete darkness.
He felt nothing but excruciating pain. Fast forward 24 hours and
McIntyre stood in the middle of the ring with his mentors. He said
they laughed, smile and played poker. He says with every action,
there’s an opposite reaction. He felt obligated to treat them to an
equal and opposite reaction last Monday on Raw in a much needed
re-introduction to the legend killer.
Randy says they saw and felt everything he felt when the ambulance
doors closed. They each felt the exact same pain that he did. And he
put his night vision on to treat himself to a front row seat of
every second of their agony. They look to the left, the right but
nothing can stop the inevitable. The Big Show tried. He stood up and
started swinging both his arms, so he smashed both his hands and he
went through the poker table.
After that, he went to Christian who was looking for help. He came
from behind him and he whispered “Say hi to Edge for me” and he
dropped him there. Shawn was next. Shawn grabbed a chair and he was
holding it but he took the chair from him and he kicked his skull
in. By this point Ric made it to the door but Orton grabbed him and
met his face. Orton says he wishes he could have seen Drew’s face.
But that bill has not been paid in full, not until he is once again
WWE Champion. Orton says it’s not over until he says it’s over. And
Drew still has hell to pay.
Orton says if Drew wants to cement his legacy as WWE Champion, he
will have it if he survives Hell in a Cell with him.
In comes Drew and he attacks Orton as WWE officials break it up.

there but he didn’t. And he wants him to apologize? He tells Murphy
to get it through his head, disciple, Messiah.

last two weeks, Murphy needs to apologize to him. If he wants to
continue to be his disciple, he has until 10:00pm to apologize or

KO Show – Kevin Owens
Kevin says usually he’s excited for the show but tonight is a
different feel. He feels different and he knows Wyatt. People are
right when they say that when the Fiend touches you, you change.
Because he feels changed. Friday on SmackDown was the first time
experiencing the presence of the Fiend and it’s still with him. He
still feels it, the anger, the agony, the dread. And that’s why
tonight is different. It’s not about having a nice chat as he throws
away the chairs. Kevin says the KO Show is about that as we see a
clip from Friday’s SmackDown where The Fiend attacked him.
Owens says the mandible claw, it’s hard to find words how it felt.
He’ll never forget the feeling of it all. He couldn’t think or move.
Owens says he doesn’t know what it is with these dark, tortured
souls. First Aleister Black, Bray Wyatt, maybe next week it’s the
Brood or Ministry of Darkness. He wants Bray Wyatt to come down that
way they can have a nice little chat.
FireFly Fun House
Wyatt is on the screen in the Fun House. He greets Kevin in French,
that’s what friends do and Kevin is his new friend. It’s always nice
to have friends, he says friends are great. The Pig asks what will
happen if he gets drafted to another brand. Wyatt says friends stick
together through thick and thin, no matter the brand. He even wrote
a song about it.
Bray says friends are very special. Friends, they warm your heart.
Friends, what would we do without them? Friends, till death do us
part.
Wyatt asks Kevin to sing along but Kevin says he won’t sing because
that is the only thing worse than watching his little Mr. Rogers
reboot. They are not friends, they could have been but Wyatt
attacked him on Friday. He won’t be able to brainwash him or do what
he did to Alexa Bliss. The only thing that matters is for him to get
in the ring, that way he doesn’t have to wait until Friday to beat
the hell out of him.
Bray says that’s not very nice and he doesn’t like it. And as for
Alexa, that’s between her and him. It’s clear that he has no idea
what he has gotten himself into but this Friday on SmackDown, he’ll
know.
Kevin says he’s going to get Wyatt and as he’s walking up the ramp,
Aleister Black attacks him taking him down.
