Analyst criticizes Kevin Owens’ Piledriver on Randy Orton during WWE RAW
Vince Russo discusses Kevin Owens' Piledriver on Randy Orton, while Jinder Mahal shares experiences from his past rivalry with The Viper during their WWE Championship feud.
Kevin Owens’ recent heel turn has led to confrontations with both Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton. After using a banned Piledriver on Orton during RAW, resulting in The Viper being stretchered out, former WWE writer Vince Russo shared his thoughts on the segment’s execution.
Speaking on Sportskeeda’s Writing with Russo, he criticized the believability of the Piledriver spot. Russo suggested that WWE should limit Orton’s absence due to the move’s appearance, arguing that an extended time off could potentially damage The Viper’s credibility.
The Prizefighter’s actions have established his position as a heel on RAW, with the banned maneuver serving as a plot device to temporarily remove Orton from television programming.
Jinder Mahal reflects on intense bouts with Randy Orton during WWE Championship rivalry
The former WWE Champion specifically mentioned the physical toll of their encounters, particularly highlighting the impact of Orton’s chair shots during their matches.
“They can’t write him off too long with the way that Piledriver looked. Like if he is out longer than two weeks, he is a, he is a sissy Marie, bro. That’s a mistake, because that looked horrible.”
“Me and Randy were on every live event doing Last Man Standing matches and he would give me one big chair shot every match right in the back, and I hated it. I would wake up and be like, ‘Oh, I gotta take a chair shot today.'”
