Would you be happy? A wrestler’s signature move is just that: the move that they are known for more than anything else, as only they can make it work right. Every now and then you find a move that is so well known with one wrestler that it is almost hard to imagine someone else using it. This week, someone used another wrestler’s signature move and the signee was not happy.
This week on Monday Night Raw, Riddle defeated Xavier Woods using Randy Orton’s RKO. Riddle and Orton have been teaming together for the last four weeks, with Riddle suggesting that they officially become a team known as RKBro. Following the match, Riddle dedicated the match to Orton, who replied “nice form, but also don’t steal my sh*t.” Orton did not appear on the show.

I’d say ‘nice form, but also don’t steal my sh*t’. #WWERaw https://t.co/8bxmFvDzcy

Orton would know well enough. Check out some of his best RKO’s and Riddle’s reaction:
Opinion: The more I watch from these two, the more I enjoy how well they work together. There is something great about watching Orton playing the straight man to Riddle’s zany antics. If nothing else, he hit a rather nice RKO this week and it could be fun to see Orton do the same thing with one of Riddle’s moves next week. They’re doing a nice job of making me wonder where the story is going and that is a nice thing to see.
Who does the better RKO? Where is RKBro going? Let us know in the comments below.
