10 Best 21st Century WWE Moments In Madison Square Garden

10. Kofi Drops Randy - Monday Night Raw, November 16th 2009

At SummerSlam 2019, Kofi Kingston defended his WWE Championship against Randy Orton in a match that had been a decade in the making. Back in 2009, Kingston had been involved in a major angle with The Viper before the latter's "stupid" outburst put the brakes on the then-Jamaican's push.

One bright spot of the feud before it got pulled took place on the 16th November edition of Raw. After The Apex Predator threatened to punt kick Roddy Piper, Kingston ran down the famously-short MSG entrance way to rescue the legend and put a beatdown on his rival. The two brawled across The Garden before Kingston's laid Orton out on a table and - because he just couldn't help himself - jumped on his prone victim with a huge Boom Drop, splintering the table and annihilating Randy in the process.

Not only was this a hell of a go-home angle for Orton and Kingston's Survivor Series match, it also proved to be a star-making turn for Kofi as he proved that he could go toe-to-toe with one of the WWE's biggest stars. Sadly, this didn't lead to everything it could have, but it's still a fondly-remembered Garden moment.
