Randy Orton once again assaults Matt Hardy on WWE Raw.
Though the No Holds Barred match between Orton and Hardy didn't take place on WWE Raw, Orton still brutally laid out Hardy. After apologizing for his actions against Edge, even admitting to loving him like a brother, Orton was ready to walk away. But once again, he heard voices in his head. Orton went after Hardy, who was wearing a neck brace following last Monday's attack, finishing him off with a con-chair-to Hardy, who lay prone on the steel steps.
Hardy was taken out of the arena on a stretcher.

Hardy's contract is set to expire on Mar. 1 and he has reportedly yet to sign a new deal. Following last week's segment, where Orton laid out Hardy with only one con-chair-to, Hardy took to social media to tweet "goodbye." On Friday, WWE announced the No Holds Barred match for Raw.
