Orton Out-
Tonight, Keith Lee vs. HAHAHAHAH Dolph for a shot at a triple threat match in main event for title shot at COC against the maybe gonna be there Drew McIntyre
Also, Dom vs. Seth and Randy vs. KO for a shot at COC, the title is vacated
Orton promo:
He shouldn’t have to do anything to get his rematch at COC- he IS entitled to it.
Drew got together with some friendos to talk about them all being kicked by Orton, it’s a cheesy photoshop of all his victims
Keith Lee comes out
Maybe a victory like MINE over YOU grants ME an opportunity at the title- and I have no doubt that Drew, being a close friend, will make good on his-- DOLPH ATTACKS
Dolph Ziggler vs. Keith Lee
For some reason Dolph is giving Lee more fits than Randy Orton
Lee eventually hits a huge tour of the islands-esque power slam
Zig Zag gets 2
