The Viper and The Prizefighter teamed up to take on Logan Paul’s allies Grayson Waller and Austin Theory in a huge tag team showdown.

The Legend Killer soon tagged in, acting like a wrecking ball on Waller, showing him how it’s done with his own mat pound, but Theory was able to stop Orton from hitting the RKO. 

KO provided a huge assist as he hit Theory with a Stunner before gifting Theory to Orton, who struck with a jaw-dropping RKO.
