The WWE King And Queen Of The Ring 2024 premium live event is in the books but there was a little bit of controversy that was stirred up following the show.
WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H spoke with Kayla Braxton backstage and addressed the controversy surrounding Randy Orton’s shoulder being up during the match-ending pin from GUNTHER in the 2024 WWE King of the Ring tournament finals.
He said that he saw the replay, and it was clear that Orton’s shoulder was up. However, he said the referee’s decision is final and that it’s up to GUNTHER to be a man and give Orton a rematch. He also noted that Orton is “banged up” from the physical bout.
