Randy Orton is back, and he’s focused on Kevin Owens.

After Owens defeated Sami Zayn in an unsanctioned match at Elimination Chamber, Owens wasn’t done and proceeded to peel off a ring mat on the outside. He continued to attack Zayn, preparing a piledriver in the exposed area when Orton’s music played. Owens met Orton in the ring and was soon taken out with an RKO. Orton went to the corner and prepared for the running punt, but just as he was about to execute multiple agents and security ran in to stop the mayhem, allowing Owens to escape. Orton then posed to the crowd to end the segment.

Back in November, Owens gave Orton a piledriver that wrote him off television, with announcers citing his history of neck problems. In the months since the attack on Orton, Owens has used the package piledriver to take out a number of his rivals, including Cody Rhodes and most recently Sami Zayn on an episode of Raw.

After Owens’ assault, Zayn told Adam Pearce he wouldn’t leave the ring until he got a match against Owens at Elimination Chamber. Pearce agreed, but said it would be an unsanctioned match.
