Despite being a heavy favorite to win the Chamber Match, Cody Rhodes failed to secure a win and instead suffered an RKO and a pinfall loss . The match also featured several other participants like Trick Williams , Je'Von Evans, and LA Knight . While all of them delivered top-notch performances, a minor blunder by LA Knight broke Orton's character.
Midway through the match, fans saw Knight attempt his signature middle rope elbow drop. However, Knight jumped on the ropes, slipped, and abruptly fell. However, instead of letting the botch stop his momentum, Knight kicked Orton and performed a jumping elbow drop.
The exact moment caused Orton to break character and instead break out into laughter. He was soon seen rolling toward the rope and constantly laughing. The moment was caught on camera and became a viral moment on the internet.
