The October 11 episode of WWE SmackDown left fans in shock, but the chaos behind the scenes was just as explosive as what unfolded in the ring. Following the already tense brawl involving Kevin Owens, Cody Rhodes, and Randy Orton, WWE has now released exclusive security footage revealing the brutal backstage attack that escalated the drama even further.

Earlier in the night, Kevin Owens stormed into the ring, grabbing a microphone to vent his frustrations. He revealed that WWE had fined and suspended him for his previous assault on Cody Rhodes, ordering him to stay away from the event in Greenville, South Carolina. Despite this, Owens couldn’t stay away from Rhodes, and the situation boiled over when Randy Orton stepped in to calm things down—only to become the target of Owens’ rage.

As tensions in the ring escalated, the action soon spilled backstage. In the newly released footage, fans can now see what happened behind the scenes before the attack. The video shows Owens and Orton walking through the backstage area, seemingly having a conversation. However, without warning, Owens turned on Orton, unleashing a vicious assault. The footage captures the intensity of the moment as Owens threw punch after punch, targeting the Viper with no mercy.

Several people rushed to pull Owens off Orton, but the damage was already done. WWE officials struggled to break up the attack, adding to the chaos that had already unfolded in the ring.
