This week's episode of WWE RAW began with all of the legends who had a bone to pick with Randy Orton, collected in the ring with Drew McIntyre to start the show. What did not come across is how much respect and admiration Ric Flair, The Big Show, Shawn Michaels, and Christian have for Randy Orton, a man they've seen grow to new heights and levels in WWE. And yes, while they did look weak in how one man with a chair destroyed four legends, they did the job for Randy Orton, someone they are most definitely fond of.

HBK, Big Show, Christian, and Ric Flair are here to open #WWERaw with Drew McIntyre
In the business of pro wrestling, you pass on the torch to the next generation of pro wrestlers, as is tradition, and Randy Orton will be a part of the roster for many years.
Maybe in a few years, Ric Flair, Christian, Big Show, and Shawn Michaels will also give the rub to Drew McIntyre when he turns heel.
