Dixie Carter On The Hardys In WWE, Randy Orton On His WWE Title Win (Video), New Day - Final Fantasy
- Above is video of new WWE Champion Randy Orton after his win over Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 33 on Sunday. Orton says taking the title from Wyatt was something he'd been working towards as a part of his master plan. Orton says he took what was Wyatt's most prized possession, now Orton's most prized possession, and you can bet your ass that he's satisfied.
- As noted, Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy returned to WWE at WrestleMania 33 to capture the RAW Tag Team Titles in the Fatal 4 Way Ladder Match with Enzo Amore & Big Cass, Sheamus & Cesaro and former champions Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson.
