WWE No Mercy 2016 Results: Randy Orton vs. Bray Wyatt Video Highlights
Check out the video highlights from the match between Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt at WWE No Mercy.
The mind games between Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton came to a head at WWE No Mercy.
Orton and Wyatt were originally supposed to face off at WWE Backlash. After Wyatt called out Orton for no longer being the predator he was, their grudge escalated in the weeks leading up to the September pay-per-view. But the concussion sustained by Orton at SummerSlam kept the match from happening.
Fast forward a few weeks and the psychological warfare continued. Orton escalated the feud by invading Wyatt’s cryptic home. And the Viper took it to the next level by beating Wyatt at his own game and trapping him in a storage unit.
But Wyatt was undeterred, and the eerie Eater of Worlds remained focused on taking out Orton. So the two men were ready to tear each other apart as No Mercy arrived.
