WWE Crown Jewel Championship witnessed something unusual and terrific as well. Kevin Owens and Randy Orton were scheduled to face each other in a singles match but both wrestlers were indulged in a brawl even before the fight officially got underway.
Owens kept on beating Orton, as the fight got more heated after which the match officials had to separate the two. The brawl did not stop there as Owens and Orton hit match officials too as well.
While Owens hit a stunner to the referee, Orton delivered an RKO to the Raw General Officer Adam Pearce. While the match was abandoned both the fighters continued their fight in between the crowd.
While Orton suffered multiple injuries and was later took out of the arena, Owens in the backstage interview spoke about having an injured rib. During an interview with Cathy Kelly Kevin Owens said, "I never wanted any of this, I never even wanted this match. The match didn't really happen, did it? But that's okay. To see Randy walk out, no, 'cause he didn't walk out, he was wheeled out.
"You know what we did? We walked out of that accident we were in, so Randy Orton feels even worse than he did after, feels worse than I do now. I think I broke my ribs but I walked out. Yeah I got what I wanted."
How Owens vs Orton rivalry started?
The rivalry started a few weeks ago on WWE SmackDown when Cody Rhodes teamed up with Roman Reigns, which upset Kevin Owens. Owens even attacked Cody Rhodes after WWE Bad Blood.
When The Prizefighter tried to get his hands on Rhodes during a SmackDown episode, Orton intervened. That prompted KO to attack him due to his belief that he was taking the WWE champion's side.
Orton went to SmackDown general manager Nick Aldis and asked for a match however, Aldis turned him down. Orton responded by calling WWE head of creative Triple H to the ring the following week on SmackDown and asking him to make the match happen. The Game initially refused but then had to give Orton his match against Owens at Crown Jewel.
After this horrific incident question arises whether Owens and Orton will be suspended or will charge penalties for beating match officials. However the big question is how WWE will take this story ahead following the incident at Crown Jewel.
