Returning to the ring on WWE’s SmackDown this week was Randy Orton, who triumphed over Carmelo Hayes with an RKO, marking his first match sincethe October 25, 2024 match where he and Cody Rhodes overcame Imperium.
Orton hit Hayes with another RKO post-match after Hayes declined a handshake. Orton was about to use his punt kick on Hayes, but Kevin Owens stepped in, dragging Hayes out of the ring. The pair scrapped at ringside before Owens absconded.
Previously, Orton was taken out of action by Owens with a piledriver on a SmackDown episode aired on November 8th, but he returned later at WWE Elimination Chamber to challenge Owens.
Axiom had a chance to perform in front of his native crowd in Spain during WWE’s SmackDown this week, but he was unfortunately defeated by WWE World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER.
After a powerbomb-clothesline-powerbomb combination, GUNTHER sealed the win. However, Axiom managed to kick out after the first powerbomb, and GUNTHER kicked out of Axiom’s Golden Ratio move.
Post-match, GUNTHER choked Axiom out with a sleeper. Axiom, a Madrid native, Spain, is one half of the NXT Tag Team Champions, with his partner being Nathan Frazer.
