Randy Orton’s music and Orton makes his way out to ringside. Orton says a lot of crazy things have gone down since he’s been gone. Orton brings up Cena being on the top of this profession and he’s just a bottom for The Rock and it brings a new meaning to Rock Bottom. He welcomes us to Friday Night SmackDown and says he and Cena have been friends for a while and he has a short list of friends and one of the people on that list is Kevin Owens. He talks about how he and Owens have crossed the line and pushed the envelope to get whatever needed to be done, get done. He says he respects Owens as a wrestler but Kevin Owens as a man is who he has a problem with. He says Owens’ veins are filled with jealousy and he brings up how he tried to end Cody Rhodes’ career because he was jealous of Rhodes being on top. He brings up Owens attacking Zayn and says Owens wants you to believe it’s because of Zayn’s alliance with Reigns but in reality it’s because Zayn is a bigger star than Owens. He says Owens has nothing to be jealous of, as he’s main evented WrestleMania twice and won every title he can win. Orton talks about his back surgery and says Owens has pissed him off. He says although he RKO’d Owens at Elimination Chamber he wants more – the voices in his head started talking to him again and they told him to kick Owens’ head so hard he’d be unrecognizable. He says he will prove that Pat MacAfee is the second best punter in the WWE and drops the mic and starts posing on the turnbuckles.
