7. Randy Orton Finished Rollins With The Best RKO Ever
One of the better singles matches on the show was Randy Orton beating Seth Rollins. Their rivalry has been built up over the last four months, so when they got to the ring the crowd was ready for it. Just like the ladder match, it probably would have benefited from another 10 minutes or so. They were well on their way to having a classic and then it ended too soon at around the 14 minute mark. The highlight of the match was the finish. With Seth Rollins looking for the Curb Stomp, Orton shot his head up, Rollins went higher into the air and Orton brought him down with a massive RKO to get the win. It was probably the best looking RKO ever. If WWE is smart they will show replays of that RKO spot over and over because it really was special. Not a lot of people can take a bump like that. Rollins can because he's a special athlete. Orton getting the win makes booking sense since Rollins ended the night as WWE Champion. That means Orton can likely get a title shot at a PPV in the very near future and it would be deserving because of this win. That's Booking 101 right there.
