1PM might be able to swing that live

 

[Chris]

Wonder if Orton just gets straight up booed or if the crowd is nuts for both since Orton has been one of the most over guys for the international crowds this year

 

[Cwalker]

Think Orton will get his share of cheers.

Might not be on Gunther’s level but it’ll be closer than most think

Cody Rhodes vs. Kevin Owens (Undisputed WWE Championship)​

Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes will defend his title at WWE Bash in Berlin against staunch ally Kevin Owens.

KO has been battling The Bloodline on and off for over four years and after The American Nightmare defeated Solo Sikoa at SummerSlam, Rhodes offered Owens the chance to face him at WWE Bash in Berlin.

Rhodes and Owens have squared off once before in singles competition, in early 2022 not long after The American Nightmare made his stunning return to WWE.

On that evening, Rhodes managed to defeat Owens by a count out victory.

The American Nightmare has been a fighting champion, having defeated the likes of Sikoa, AJ Styles and Logan Paul in Championship defenses.

Can Rhodes continue his reign as Undisputed WWE Champion or will KO become world champion for just the second time in his career?

Don’t miss WWE Bash in Berlin, streaming live on Saturday, Aug. 31, at 1 PM ET/10 AM PT on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else.​

This has to be play into Orton’s heel turn, right?

“You gave Kevin a Championship match that he didn’t even want! Where was my Championship match?!”

 

[Chris]

I see where you're coming from but that's a hard sell when Orton had his title match at this show announced first lol

Ummm you see the other championship match announced? Part timer

 

[Cwalker]

Y’all are missing my point…

Cody is just giving out title matches. Is he going to give Randy a title match down the line?

That’s an enough reason to turn heel.

Sure

 

[Cwalker]

Like we all know Orton isn’t beating Gunther.

Since Cody gave KO a shot at the belt when even KO said his win-loss record says she shouldn’t have one, should’nt Cody give a shot to his mentor and the guy he’s known 15 years?

 

[O-Blaze]

I see what Cwalker is saying sort of. If Cody doesn’t offer him a shot after the KO match, then Orton could feel disrespected, and that alone could make him angry enough to attack Cody.

Yeah like Chris said if Randy didn’t already have a title match first that might make sense
