10 Times Kayfabe Was Broken In WWE

#7 Randy Orton goes off on Kofi Kingston

The RKO that killed Kofi Kingston's momentum

Back in 2009, Kofi Kingston was quite possibly one of the breakout stars' of the year, as he found himself in the middle of an exciting feud against Randy Orton. However, Kingston's push seemingly came to an end during one particular singles match against Orton on Raw.

Initially, it seemed like Orton was charging up for his devastating Punt Kick on Kingston, however, the latter seemed to have messed up the spot, prompting 'The Viper' to hit the current New Day member with an RKO instead, as a pissed off Randy Orton started yelling "stupid" towards Kingston's direction. In addition to that, Orton also yelled some presumable inaudible verbals towards the former US Champion as well.

This eventually earned Orton a shot at Sheamus' WWE Championship match and didn't help Kingston's career much either, up until the point he had eventually joined The New Day along with Big E and Xavier Woods.
