00:00and Randy Orton again and now Randy Orton with Gunther up and down out of the steps
00:06Gunther tried his best to block that pick up from Randy knowing full well the spine of Randy is hurt
00:14but Randy just deadly muscled him up
00:19no give whatsoever in steel
00:24and Orton's got to get the ring general in the ring
00:30Randy trying to figure out what do I do now
00:38I dropped this guy in a step to the spine
00:41he's still crawling around
01:01both men's bodies savaged
01:03and if Orton has anything to do with it it's going to get a lot lot worse for Gunther
01:09Gunther trying to get away from Orton rolled under the bottom rope and what that take was
01:15forced Charles Robinson to stop the count Wade
01:18so Gunther inadvertently may have hurt himself there
01:22he could have picked up a count out win and kept the title but
01:25I think just to get out of harm's way he rolled back into the ring and it forced Charles to break the count
01:29which is a problem at this point in a matchup
01:32you don't have all your mental faculties right now
01:34you're not thinking clearly
01:36you've been punched in the face 300 times by Randy Orton
01:40Clay might be up there with about 20% now
01:48now Randy Orton dragging Gunther outside the ring again
01:51Randy Orton what is he planning to do
01:53kicking out of Gunther
01:54bounces him right off our announce table
01:57Gunther in trouble as Randy breaks the count
02:01he doesn't want to win this by count
02:03he can't he doesn't win the title
02:05he's got to pin or submit Gunther
02:07and now right back to work that is not the bad arm
02:10now he has the bad arm
02:11the right arm
02:12bounces Gunther off the steps
02:16and again
02:17Randy Orton has taken the fight to Gunther here
02:21well Randy Orton has turned barbaric
02:23and sadistic
02:26this has just turned into an absolute
02:29this is all out assault by Randy Orton
02:40and now Randy Orton
02:43using the steps to his advantage
02:46lifting Gunther up to the top of the steps
02:51and driving Gunther through the table

03:19and Randy Orton knows it ladies
03:21Randy Orton knows he's playing the beast here
03:25this arena is packed full of partisan
03:28Gunther fans but even they
03:31are showing respect
03:33to the viper Randy Orton
03:35as Gunther's chances
03:37of successfully defending the title
03:40perhaps slide away
03:42and again yeah
03:43I've really got to give you a fistful of credit in this matchup Wade
03:46because uh
03:47Charles Robinson understanding that this crowd is here
03:50capacity crowd, record crowd
03:52he's letting these two fight
03:54letting these two beat the hell out of one another
03:56in what has been a great main event for the world heavyweight championship
03:59and now Orton trying to drag Gunther
04:02back into the ring
04:04the final of the king of the ring tournament was controversial
04:07nobody wants that today
04:10especially not Randy
04:11we want a conclusive victory
04:13one way or the other
04:14and you're right credit to the referee on that
04:18and now Randy back into the ring
04:20measuring Gunther the world champion
04:25Randy taking his time
04:28this is old school Orton here
04:37Randy wanting to psychologically
04:40batter his opponent

04:44to put the champ away
04:48Orton
04:49went for the RKO
04:50shoved away by Gunther
04:52hard landing on the spine of the viper
04:54who perhaps
04:55took a little too long
04:57getting the ring general back in there
04:59and now Gunther's sleeper
05:00sleeper locked in
05:02sleeper locked into Randy
05:03Randy Orton's in trouble

05:23and Orton has to hold that right arm of Gunther
05:26isn't tight enough
05:27to lock it in
05:28the injury issue on that right arm
05:31isn't loose enough against Orton
05:33trying to do what he can
05:34to break the sleeper

05:36Gunther's got it locked in
05:39and now Orton swings him away

05:42or was that the last roll of the dice
05:45to land the Orton
05:46Orton's face is turning a
05:48a beet red here
05:49those eyes are starting to look like black pits
05:52and you notice he's
05:53he's stripped the arm even deeper
05:55underneath the chin
05:56you make a mistake
05:58Gunther well capitalized
