WWE RAW: 6 reasons why R-K-Bro are an instant hit – Big reality check for the roster, fans finally get what they want?

#3 Different direction for Randy Orton on WWE RAW

Randy Orton can have un on WWE RAW during this storyline

Randy Orton was one of the best performers on WWE RAW during the show’s ThunderDome era. Even now, he is one of those few superstars who carry the three-hour-long shows. He was great as The Legend Killer, but as mentioned previously, the creative team ran way too long with that storyline. He deservedly found himself in the title picture and did his job in putting over other superstars.

Orton did everything that was there for him, and he didn’t have many unexplored options left for himself on WWE RAW. His alliance with Riddle came as a surprise. Their contrasting personalities forced fans to invest more into their budding friendship. Their real-life equation reflected well in their in-ring chemistry, and thankfully, it led to the formation of R-K-Bro.

It is not a usual sight to see Randy Orton terrorizing the tag team division, and yet, here we are watching The Viper prey on one team after another. There are also subtle changes in his demeanor when he sometimes lets Riddle take the spotlight, which is quite contrary to his on-screen persona. But, again, he is a master of his craft, and it is exciting to see him pursue something different on WWE RAW.
