WrestleMania Rewind : Randy Orton vs CM Punk at WrestleMania XXVII

#2 The Match

This was a 20 minute physical encounter. Punk started the attack targeting the injured leg of Orton repeatedly. Randy was reeling in pain and created separation by delivering a vicious clothesline to Punk. There was some action at ring side with Punk attacking Orton’s leg with the steel steps and mauling and mocking him.

Punk climbed the ropes to deliver a high elbow drop but Orton countered that with a superplex from the top rope. Punk came back strongly by ripping the bandage off Orton’s leg and tried a few submission holds on the leg. Punk locked the anaconda vise and tried to get Orton to tap out. But a resilient Orton rolled on his body and caught the ropes and broke the hold.

Orton delivered a DDT to Punk and attempted to punt kick him. Punk escaped the punt and kicked Orton and attempted a high elbow drop again. Orton delivered an RKO out of nowhere in mid-air and covered Punk for a 3 count. The referee counted 1...2...3... and Orton emerged victorious.
