#3 Best: Heel Randy Orton's promo

Randy Orton pointed out the real legend killers, this week! — Orton pointed out the real legend killers, this week!

We've all known that Randy Orton always works better as a heel than a babyface. This week, he kicked off proceedings and justified his heinous attack on Jeff Hardy last week. He was measured, calculating and his words really hit home. Especially when Orton turned to the crowd and called them all 'legend killers', a throwback to his old gimmick.

"I started my career as a #LegendKiller, and now 16 years later I realize who the TRUE #LegendKiller is.... it's EACH and EVERY one of you!" - @RandyOrton #SDLive pic.twitter.com/wBPucNI7y6
