#1 Randy Orton continued his love-hate relationship with Riddle on WWE RAW

Randy Orton opened WWE RAW and received a grand welcome from the WWE Universe. This was the first time he appeared since the ThunderDome was wrapped up.

Orton soaked up the WWE Universe’s response to his return before speaking. Before he said much, Riddle came down to the ring and said he wanted to team up with Orton, but The Viper was not in favor of the idea.

Corey Graves deleted his Tweet! More details HERE.

Unsurprisingly, AJ Styles and Omos made their way out to the ring, and a match was booked between Styles and Orton. Orton and Riddle both tried to RKO the massive Omos but failed miserably before the giant chokeslammed The Original Bro.

The main event of RAW saw Orton and Styles go head to head in the biggest match of the night. The Viper was distracted by Omos who was at ringside but did not miss a beat in the ring.

Late in the match, Riddle disobeyed Orton’s command and came out to push Omos into the steel post. The Viper took advantage of the situation and hit Styles with an RKO to pick up the victory.

Orton and Riddle hugged it out in the final moments of RAW before The Legend Killer nailed The Bro with an RKO. The match was good and gave fans a big contest between two of the best on RAW.

The partnership between Orton and Riddle is still in the development phase, and it looks like they will be teaming up for a RAW Tag Team Championship match at WWE SummerSlam. The two superstars look like the perfect team to dethrone Styles and Omos on RAW.
