I've been watching Randy Orton in the ring ever since I was a teenager, and at the age of thirty-three, it's still so very cool to see that the RKO can deliver such spine-chilling moments. While the match in itself was nothing special, I loved how Ali escaped the RKO at HIAC.
This was a match that was announced at the very last minute and had no real build or storyline attached, much to the dismay of fans. But it did what it set out to do, gave the fans a moment that they will remember forever.

Ali can do things in the ring that most human beings cannot and I thought this was a great way to showcase his ability. I even liked the final RKO that helped Randy Orton win the big match.
Do you think Orton goes to RAW or stays on WWE SmackDown?
