Randy Orton's 10 Greatest RKO Moments In WWE

8. Matt Hardy, Finlay, Mr Kennedy And CM Punk - WrestleMania 23

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JW4e8fOqm0M Once the WWE realised the popularity of the RKO itself, they started introducing sections of multi-man matches in which Orton would go crazy and hit the move on several wrestlers in succession. The best example of probably happened in the third ever Money In The Bank ladder match, in which Orton snapped and took out Matt Hardy, Finlay and Mr Kennedy in rapid succession, before stopping to gaze up at the briefcase. The final RKO of the sequence, on a CM Punk still enjoying his début year with the company, is particularly impressive. Punk cuts off Orton's attempt to climb the ladder, but the Viper regains control and drills him with a very high-impact version of the move, sending them both crashing to the canvas below. You can see Randy almost lose his balance as he kicks away from the ladder, but the pair do well to hold the move together. Mr Kennedy would go on to win the match, and suffer the indignity of being the only wrestler to have ever lost the MitB briefcase before cashing it in.
