New Delhi: In a much-awaited event, Randy Orton stunned Roman Reigns to win the Royal Rumble 2017.
Some of WWE's top wrestlers were competing against each other in the Alamodome for a chance to earn a world title match at WrestleMania.
But the Viper, who is currently involved with the Wyatt Family, who assisted him well towards a win, was left with Reigns towards the end.
While Reigns looked all set to emerge the winner, Orton, who won the Royal Rumble in 2009 as well, stunned Reigns with a RKO to win the event.
