Bryan stood over the knocked out Orton, holding the belt and leading a "Yes" chant. JBL said that at Night of Champions, "We see things that we never see, including this!" Yeah, uh, unless you count the LAST PPV, sir.
The match itself was very good but the nature of the finish felt like Triple H was going to have the last say tomorrow on Raw. We shall see soon enough.
