#3 Randy Orton heel turn

Finally, the Randy Orton everone had been waiting for.
Finally, the Randy Orton everyone had been waiting for.

In one the most significant moments of the night, Randy Orton made his return to WWE after undergoing a successful knee surgery that had rendered him out of action for two months. In a surprising manner, "The Viper" attacked Jeff Hardy, following his loss at the hands of Shinsuke Nakamura, turning heel in the process once again.

The injury came as a blessing in disguise as it helped Orton come out of his unappealing vanilla babyface personality which had failed to get over with the fans. His best work has always come with him portraying a ruthless villain, and maybe the time has come for Orton to unleash his most adored and prominent gimmick, "The Legend Killer."
