Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens still have jobs with WWE and Smackdown Live after picking up the win in spite of Shane McMahon’s efforts, and with a little help from Daniel Bryan.
The final moments of the match saw Owens shove Bryan into Shane as he was making the count for a pinfall, and Shane screamed at Bryan for breaking it up. Bryan tried to reason with him, then Orton and Zayn went back and forth with a few near falls, and Sami finally looked to have Orton beat. Shane made the count, but stopped at two intentionally and Bryan screamed at him for not calling it down the middle.
Bryan argued with him in the corner while Orton set up for a RKO, but Zayn countered and rolled through, with Bryan making the fast count, seemingly getting back at Shane for not being impartial.
