2 reasons why Randy Orton should beat Kofi Kingston for the WWE Championship, and 2 reasons he should not

#2 Why he shouldn't - Kofi could solidify his reign

These two men do not like each other

If you're one of those people who go to those websites where they keep track of title defences in pro wrestling, you know how Kofi's list looks. AJ Styles, Sami Zayn, Daniel Bryan, Kevin Owens, Dolph Ziggler, Samoa Joe. At first glance, it's a pretty impressive list. That's a who's who of indie wrestlers who've made it in WWE (and Dolph Ziggler).

But it's easy also to see why some people would be dismissive of such a list. When you look at it, it's hard to argue against it.

Sure, Daniel Bryan and AJ Styles are top-tier stars, but Styles wasn't even pinned in his match, and Bryan's not exactly invincible either. Zayn and Joe are tough talkers who lose a whole bunch. Kevin Owens was arguably the weakest Universal Champion and was in a mishap involving Braun Strowman. Dolph is Dolph.

But Randy Orton is a bona fide legend. He is without a shadow of a doubt a legitimate star, and a win over him at Clash of Champions would cement Kofi's reign and prove that he's not just beating mid-carders.
