Backstage: Ted DiBiase Talks w/ Randy Orton

Backstage we see Orton walking and Ted DiBiase approaches him. He wishes him good luck tonight. Orton asks where Cody is. Ted says he honestly doesn’t know. He says he can’t talk to him lately and he’s acting weird. DiBiase says he’s talking about winning the Rumble and talking like he’s basically counting Orton out. Orton says he thinks he’s seconds away from beating Sheamus to become WWE Champion again and he doesn’t want either DiBiase or Rhodes to help him. He walks off.

WWE Title:

-Sheamus (c) vs. Randy Orton

The match goes out to the floor early. Sheamus is working on the arm of Orton. He slams it onto the steel steps and Orton sells it big. Cole points out he that Orton won’t be able to hit the RKO if the arm is further injured. Sheamus continues the attack on the arm. Crowd is way into Orton this entire match so far. Orton clips Sheamus in the knee and is now working on the leg of Sheamus. That seems to be the story of the match so far as the action continues to bounce back and forth with Sheamus working on Orton’s arm and Orton working on Sheamus’ leg. Orton hits his draped-across the ropes DDT on Sheamus. Crowd continues to be way into Orton. Orton seems to be setting Sheamus up for the punt-kick to the face. He comes in and Sheamus rolls out of the ring at the last second. Orton goes out after him. European uppercut. Sheamus slams Orton arm-first into the ringside post. He tosses him back in the ring. Out of nowhere, Cody Rhodes nails Sheamus from behind. Apparently he jumped the security wall and attacked him. Back in the ring. Sheamus turns around and Orton RKOs him. He goes to pin him but the ref rings the bell without counting three. We see the ref talking to the ring announcer. The announcer says the winner of this match via disqualification — and STILL WWE Champion — Sheamus.

Winner and STILL WWE Champion: Sheamus

After The Match: Orton Attacks Legacy, Sheamus Attacks Orton

Rhodes comes into the ring to apologize to Orton. The crowd is chanting "RKO" loudly as Orton stares at Rhodes pissed off. He punches Cody Rhodes in the face. He grabs him by the face and yells at him that he’s screwing everything up. Ted DiBiase comes out and breaks things up. DiBiase goes to help Rhodes up and Orton attacks DiBiase now. He’s in both their faces yelling. After all that chaos we see Orton standing over Legacy as Sheamus is behind Orton ready to attack. Orton turns around and Sheamus hits his big boot to the face and Orton is floored. Legacy just looks on as Sheamus celebrates and exits the ring. They do nothing to stop him. Sheamus’ music plays. Off goes Sheamus. Legacy leave Orton laying in the ring and they walk off together as well.
