The fallout from WWE Crown Jewel 2024 led to a tense night on the November 8 episode of Friday Night SmackDown, where Randy Orton and Kevin Owens clashed in a confrontation that took a serious turn. After a heated exchange in the ring, Owens delivered a devastating piledriver to Orton, leaving the WWE Universe in shock as Orton was stretchered out of the arena.
In a medical update, WWE has confirmed that Randy Orton has been diagnosed with a cervical cord neurapraxia, an injury that could have serious implications for his wrestling career. Currently, there is no timetable for Ortons return, leaving fans anxious about what lies ahead for the Apex Predator.

The tension escalated quickly, culminating in Owens landing a piledriver that left Orton motionless. WWEs medical team rushed to the scene, securing Orton on a stretcher and transporting him out of the KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York.
