Winner: Randy Orton

Orton grabs the microphone after the match and says that on Sunday he will find out what a House of Horrors match is. He assures Bray Wyatt that the House of Horrors match will be his eternal Hell. Orton holds the title high but it isn’t his music that comes on, it’s Jinder Mahal’s.

Jinder says Orton doesn’t respect him because he should be scared of him, not Bray Wyatt. He says he has more wealth, more talent, more class, more culture, than anyone in the arena. The fans chant “What?” and “U.S.A”. Mahal says Orton is just like the fans, who disrespect him because he isn’t white. He says they have a lack of tolerance but at Backlash he will take respect. He will take the glory of the WWE Championship back to his people. From here on he speaks in Punjabi. Weird angle to take with this one. Eventually Jinder tries to hit Orton but The Viper fights him. The Singh Brothers run-in and help Jinder beat Orton down. Jinder takes the WWE Championship and walks away with it. You know it’s weird when you have a number one contender and you don’t even recognise his finisher.
