The duo soon found themselves on top a parking truck where Edge dished out a Spear before being on the receiving end of another RKO from Orton. While Edge managed to beat the count once again, Orton was busy preparing to end Edge once it for all. The Viper tried hitting Edge with a Con-Chair-To only to see himself being locked in a submission. With Edge now firmly in control of the match, he emotionally finished the match by delivering a nasty Con-Chair-To to a barely moving Orton on top of the truck. The referee counted to 10 as Edge stood on top of a knocked out Orton to score his first singles victory since WrestleMania 27.

The duo put on a great match on Night 2 of WrestleMania 36. The other key results saw Drew McIntyre beat Brock Lesnar to win his first WWE Championship while Charlotte Flair beat Rhea Ripley to capture the NXT Women's Championship. It remains to be seen how WWE uses Edge going forward after WrestleMania.
