Orton and Foley

Mick Foley had established himself as a WWE legend by the time 2003 rolled around. Evolution's Randy Orton had dubbed himself The Legend Killer. The duo soon crossed paths and the road to WrestleMania 20 saw Orton embarrassing Foley on several occasions. Things escalated when Orton spit on Foley on an episode of WWE RAW. Foley brought back The Rock to reform The Rock 'N' Sock Connection, and the duo took on Randy Orton, Ric Flair, and Batista at WrestleMania 20.

Orton connected an RKO on Foley to win the match for his team. A month later, Orton and Foley met again in a Hardcore Match for the WWE Intercontinental title. This was one of the most brutal encounters in WWE history, and Orton somehow managed to score a win over the Hardcore Legend, establishing himself as a force to be reckoned with. Orton recently had a Twitter exchange with Foley and dubbed the match as his all-time favorite. The match put an end to the feud, with Foley giving a major rub to The Legend Killer.
