WWE just introduced a brand new "odd couple" tag-team on the latest Raw.

Randy Orton and Riddle are officially "RK-Bro".

Both men teamed up to defeat Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin on the latest episode of WWE Raw. This came after Orton had beaten Riddle on last week's show - the 'Viper' apparently had a change of heart following that hard-fought win.

The pair even teased a regular tag finish during the match. Randy hit his draping DDT on the ropes, then Riddle scored the pin by hitting his 'Floating Bro' from the top.

It appears that WWE love the "odd couple" dynamic between both guys. Backstage after their debut win, Riddle told Orton that this could be "the beginning of a beautiful friendship". In other words, they'll be a team for at least another couple of weeks.

This could be a way to set up a rematch between both men at WrestleMania Backlash on 16 May. Or, maybe "RK-Bro" will challenge AJ Styles and Omos for the Raw Tag-Team Titles on that pay-per-view. Right now, it's the latter match that looks more likely.

Riddle's union with Randy would also explain why he lost the United States Title to Sheamus at 'Mania 37.
