6 criminally underrated RKOs out of nowhere

The RKO is one of the most iconic finishers in WWE or even professional wrestling history. The move is so popular that whenever the fans see one, they &quot;mark&quot; out. Even though the RKO is a modified jumping version of John Laurinaitis' Ace cutter and Diamond Dallas Page's Diamond cutter, Randy Orton introduced an element of versatility to it. One cannot predict when the viper will strike. Ask Evan Bourne or Seth Rollins about it. Orton countered their finishers at the very last second for a couple of picture-perfect RKOs.While RKOs on Rollins, Bourne, and the Undertaker are some of the most talked about RKOs, Orton performed various other outstanding RKOs out of thin air. These RKOs are criminally underrated and in this list, we are going to take a look at them.
