5 of Randy Orton's best WWE Title matches at SummerSlam

#2. Randy Orton vs Kofi Kingston - SummerSlam 2019

Randy Orton vs Kingston from SummerSlam 2019

Randy Orton is no stranger to challenging for the WWE Championship at SummerSlam. The last time he did so was last year when he and Kofi Kingston re-visited their rivalry from a decade ago and that led to a highly-awaited clash between the arch-rivals.

Orton and Kingston weren't exactly the biggest rivals in WWE but if you ask me, their chemistry in 2009 was a lot more interesting compared to whatever they produced at last year's SummerSlam PPV.

The duo had a decent enough match but once again, at times, the match felt quite lazy. Randy Orton hit an initial RKO on Kingston but the latter got his foot on the rope to prevent the three-count. And Orton's attempt at the Punt Kick eventually allowed the champion to hit 'The Viper' with a Trouble in Paradise.

The conclusion, however, was brilliant as Orton took things to a next level and mocked Kingston's family at ringside, which prompted the WWE Champion to use a kendo stick to brutalize Randy Orton and eventually set up a rematch for the Clash of Champions PPV.
