John Cena defeated his fierce rival Randy Orton on Tuesday night's WWE Smackdown Live, but in doing so he needed the helping hand of Luke Harper. This help sets up an interesting grudge between Orton and Harper before the Elimination Chamber clash Sunday night.
After getting a much needed success at Seattle, John Cena's next test will be up against AJ Styles, Bray Wyatt, Baron Corbin, The Miz and Dean Ambrose in the pay-per-view event. But, along with that result, here are the other things viewers missed overnight.
Cena gives Orton the Attitude Adjustment:- Cena floored Orton with an AA to win the non-title bout at the Smackdown Live event. The finishing came after the intervention made by Harper, pushing Orton to the champion who delivers the move and counted the opponent out once referee came back to the ring.
Corbin wins the fatal four-way:- Corbin beats Styles, The Miz and Dean Ambrose in a fatal four-way match, an impressive performance from the superstar with his End of Days on AJ Styles. But the contest could have gone either way too before the final flourish by Corbin, making the Elimination Chamber clash even more enticing.
Dirty talks from Natalya and Nikki Bella:- Natalya and Nikki Bella built up their Elimination Chamber clash with a chat with Tom Phillips that seemingly degenerated into trash talks about their husbands. John Cena's girlfriend Nikki Bella took exception to Natalya's claim that she would anyway be the WWE icon even if she wasn't married to Tyson Kidd just because she's smarter, better and quite prettier.
Madness at 12.man Tag Team clash:- This was quite a curtain-raiser before the Elimination Chamber with all six teams including American Alpha, Breezango, Heath Slater and Rhyno vs The Ascension, The Vaudevillians and The Usos backing up at the pay-per-view event. Ascension's Viktor pinned Rhyno eventually to win for their trio of pairs. American Alpha's twin titles are on the line in Sunday's Tag Team Turmoil match.
Ziggler and Crews clash was short but good:- This was not one of the absorbing affairs but it got over as soon as it began. The highlight of the clash being Dolph Ziggler catching Apollo Crews and Kalisto with an old school steel chair shot. Daniel Bryan has set up a handicap match between Dolph and team of Apollo Crews and Kalisto in the Elimination Chamber on Sunday night.
