WWE announced Friday that Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton have been fined an undisclosed monetary amount for their chair shot exchange in a Street Fight on Monday's Raw.
"We don't allow chair shots to the head in WWE," said Paul "Triple H" Levesque, WWE's Executive Vice President, Talent and Live Events. "We understand it was in the heat of the moment but we take this very seriously and as a result, [Orton and Bryan] were fined."
While Triple H was called by his kayfabe position as COO in the dot com coverage, he is the person that directs the fine and/or suspension as EVP of Talent & Live Events.
WWE did not disclose the amount of the fines. Orton offered comment on the fine, stating, "Trust me, it was enough."
The company has outlawed planned shots to the head as a way to battle concussions. WWE fined Triple H and Undertaker for a similar offense at WrestleMania 27.
