Breaking News: Randy Orton & Daniel Bryan Fined

Jun 28, 2013

WWE announced Friday that Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton have been fined an undisclosed monetary amount for their chair shot exchange in a Street Fight on Monday’s RAW. This is not a storyline angle as WWE takes chair shots to the head VERY seriously these days, especially with all the recent concussions.

“We don’t allow chair shots to the head in WWE,” said Paul “Triple H” Levesque, WWE’s Executive Vice President, Talent and Live Events. “We understand it was in the heat of the moment but we take this very seriously and as a result, [Orton and Bryan] were fined.”

Orton offered comment on the fine, stating, “Trust me, it was enough.”

Here is the full WWE statement:
