Officials tried to convince Kevin Owens to end the match, stating that Sami Zayn had endured enough punishment, but KO refused, continuing his assault while yelling at the officials. More steel chairs were brought into the ring, and Zayn introduced a barbed wire-wrapped chair.

With the steel chair in his hand, Orton paused, looking around at the crowd before tossing the chair out of the ring. He adjusted his knee pad, signaling that something big was coming—after all, it had been a long time coming.
The Legend Killer lines KO up for the punt, but before he could strike, security and officials rushed in, intercepting him mid-way. Owens took advantage and quickly retreated backstage.
