5 Biggest Headlines From WWE Payback 2020
SummerSlam: The Follow-Up!
2. Keith Lee Beat Randy Orton Quickly And Cleanly
There were many directions you could've gone with Keith Lee and Randy Orton. Maybe Lee "gives it his all" and falls just short to a hair-trigger RKO. Or maybe Lee wins when Drew McIntyre provides a distraction, just to keep Orton his usual headliner-level "strong".
Instead, the finish came suddenly, when Lee just took control of the match, avoided an RKO, and then planted Orton with the Spirit Bomb for the squeaky clean, ain't-no-doubt victory. The attire and song changes feel like minor quibbles from a bygone era now.
