We are live from the WWE Thunderdome at the Amway Center in Orlando, FL, for the October 5th episode of RAW.
Randy Orton is in the back and he has something to say. He says he didn’t leave Clash of Champions with the WWE Championship. Instead, I left in an ambulance. I don’t remember a lot from that ride, but I remember what happened in that match with Drew McIntyre. I remember the Big Show choke slamming me through the announce table. I remember being ambushed by Christian. I remember Shawn Michaels kicking me between the eyes. I remember Drew McIntyre kicking me where I kicked him and was put into an ambulance driven by Ric Flair and it forced me to lose consciousness. In those moments, I saw nothing but complete darkness. I felt nothing but excruciating pain.
Fast forward 24 hours and Drew McIntyre stood in the ring next to his mentors, celebrating. Seeing Drew raising a title he didn’t deserves makes me sick. They laughed, they smiled, they played poker. As the saying goes, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. After the actions of Show, Flair, Christian, and Michaels took at Clash of Champions, I decided to give them an equal and opposite reaction on Raw and reintroduce them to the Legend Killer. He wanted to make sure they felt what he felt when he was in the ambulance. When those lights went out, they felt the same darkness and pain I did. I treated myself to a front row seat for every second of their agony. They looked to the right and to the left, but nothing could stop the inevitable. Big Show started swinging his arms praying they would connect. I sent Show through a poker table.
I went after Christian and his head was on a swivel and I snuck up to him and whispered to him ‘Say hi to Edge’ and I dropped him. Shawn was next and he grabbed a chair but after I took it, there wasn’t much to stop him. Flair was grasping for the door but then I put my arm on his shoulder and Ric took his hand from the door and he turned around and met his fate. I wish I could have seen Drew’s reaction on his face when he saw what happened. The bill will not be paid in full until I am WWE Champion.
This isn’t over until I say it is over. Drew still has HELL to pay. I am talking to you directly. Tell anyone who will listen that you want to cement your legacy as WWE champ. You want that legacy so badly, it will be waiting for you if you can survive one more WWE Championship match against me . . . inside HELL in a Cell.
The door opens and Drew enters. He pushes Randy against a wall and punches him. Drew with punches to Orton and he asks Randy what does he know about hell. Referees and officials pull Drew off Randy and Randy slithers out of the room. We go to commercial with officials holding a furious Drew back.

In the Arena:
Kevin Owens stops Mike Rome’s introduction. Kevin says he is usually excited to be able to host the Kevin Owens show and talk to his guest. Tonight’s show has a different feel because I feel different. I felt this way for a couple of days and I couldn’t figure out why. It is because people are right when they say when the fiend touches you, you change. I feel change. Friday on Smackdown, it was my first time experiencing the presence of the Fiend and it is still with me. The anger, the agony, the dread. I guess that is why tonight is different. Tonight’s KO Show is not about sitting down and having nice chat. We don’t need these as he throws the chairs to the floor.
We see what happened on Friday night.
Kevin says it is hard to explain how that mandible claw felt. Literally ripping the breath out of me. I couldn’t move. I was paralyzed. I don’t know what it is about these dark tortured souls. First Aleister Black and now The Fiend. Is the Brood next? All I care about now is that Bray Wyatt come down here so they can have a nice ‘chat’. Pack up the puppets and put on the sweater vest and come down here.
We go to the Firefly Fun House and Bray Wyatt waves to everyone on Raw and Kevin.
He says it is so nice to have him on the show. That is what friends do. You are my new friend, right Kevin? It is always nice to make new friends. Someone to play ball with, have sleepover, do some fingerpainting. Maybe even bury a body in the woods. Bray says friends stick together through thick and thin, not matter what brand you are on. Bray says he wrote a song about it.
Friends are very special. Friends, they warm your heart. Friends, what would we do without them? Friends, til death do us part (and Ramblin Rabbit is eaten by Mercy).
Kevin refuses to sing along with Bray. That is the only thing worse than watching your demented Mr. Rogers Reboot. We are not friends. We could have been friends and had a great time, until you attacked me. You will not be able to brainwash me like you did to Alexa Bliss. I want you to come to this ring so I don’t have to wait until Friday to beat the hell out of you.
Bray says that isn’t nice and he doesn’t like bullies and neither does HE. As for Ms. Bliss, that is between her and HIM. It is quite clear that you have no idea what you have gotten yourself into. Friday you will know. Consider this a warning because that is what friends are for.
Owens says he knows what that translates to and says he’s not waiting until SmackDown. Owens says if Wyatt won’t come to him, he’s going to Wyatt. Owens exits the ring and marches to the back to find Wyatt but Aleister suddenly charges from behind and drops him on the ramp. Black nails a Black Mass to put Owens down again on his face.
