Randy Orton: 5 Awesome Matches And 5 That Sucked

2. Randy Orton Vs. The Big Show (Survivor Series 2013)

When historians look back at WWE in 2013, they'll not that one of the dumbest moves that WWE made was trying to transfer the YES chant to The Big Show and insert him as the top contender for Randy Orton's WWE Title at Survivor Series. The audience desperately wanted Daniel Bryan to be in that spot - hell they'd have even taken CM Punk in that position - but what they didn't want is the man who had been in WWE for almost 15 years and had wore out his main event card several years before. As soon as the match started, it was obvious that it didn't feel like a Survivor Series main event because the audience didn't believe in the Big Show in the role of hero trying to capture the title. The whole match was bells and whistles with Kane getting involved, knee injuries, ref bumps, etc. You name it, WWE incorporated it here to try and make the match more exciting. 'Try' being the operative word here. When the crowd weren't chanting "boring" they were chanting for Daniel Bryan. The match ended in just over ten minutes with Randy retaining his title. The bout was universally called the worst main event of 2013 and Dave Meltzer awarded the match 1 star out of 5.
