5 betrayals that stunned the WWE Universe

#4 - WWE's Evolution on Randy Orton

From the betrayal at a festival to the one that happened at a celebration. Ric Flair, Triple H, and Batista were celebrating in the ring with Randy Orton when the trio turned on the champion.

Orton had beaten Chris Benoit for the Heavyweight championship – something Triple H failed to do despite multiple attempts. The win did not go well with Evolution's leader, and he took out his frustration on the young champion.

Triple H and Orton did not have a long feud at that time as WWE pushed the champion as 'The Legend Killer,' but the duo renewed their rivalry years later.

However, the duo did team up years later to form The Authority – one of the best villainous stables in recent history.

The Viper joined forces with Triple H after the latter helped him with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from Daniel Bryan at SummerSlam but was ejected from the stable after he attacked Seth Rollins – the face of the stable at that time.
