WWE SmackDown Superstar Randy Orton has shared how his impressive RKO spot with Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 31 came together.
The March 2015 event saw Orton defeat Seth Rollins after the Viper countered Rollins’ stomp into an elevated RKO.
On a recent edition of Logan Paul’s “ImPAULsive” podcast, Orton shared how the impressive spot was constructed. He said,
“When it comes to the timing, I’ll take the credit on that. But when it comes to getting there, I gotta give all that credit to Seth. I gave him a base to jump off of, but he had to run towards me, redirect, go straight off the back, and give himself enough hangtime for me to go from being bent way the f**k over to getting out from underneath, seeing him and then dropping him.”
While Rollins would lose the match, he would end the night as WWE World Heavyweight Champion by cashing in his Money in the Bank contract during the main event.
