Rollins last eliminated Randy Orton to win the match. Orton going until the end had fans hoping on social media for the Orton vs. Lesnar match that has been rumored and speculated on for a few years now. While Orton didn't earn the shot at Lesnar, he took to Twitter before the match and tweeted a warning to The Beast.

Orton wrote, "Haven't forgotten about this one. Payback's a b..."
