Booker T also commented on it, saying that the star was hurt and that he was trying to walk it off. The star was clearly legitimately hurt, having landed badly in a moment on his leg. He was very worried and said that Orton was trying to walk it off.

"It looked like he may have jammed it a little bit after that last sequence. Right now, he's trying to walk it off."

The star limped for the rest of the night, but that was not the only injury that he picked up. He hurt his head as well, connecting with it badly on the outside of the ring, and that saw him busted open. The star was openly bleeding by the end of the match. McIntyre ended up winning the bout, but in the end, the return of Cody Rhodes saved the Viper from further punishment.

Despite the injury, he was able to complete the match.


Randy Orton was about to suffer the same fate as Cody Rhodes

Cody Rhodes was out of action with a storyline injury for a long time. It looked like WWE was about to do the same to Orton, as Drew McIntyre was about to Claymore him through the table.

However, a surprise was waiting for fans, as Cody Rhodes suddenly returned and attacked Drew McIntyre. The two are set to face each other at Wrestlepalooza now.
