That might’ve been the best Raw tag team match since the match that Triple H tore his quad in.
Great flow, great RKO to Gable, titles changing hands, RKBro staying together. Randy Orton is over like Stone Cold in his prime in some of these cities. And the added “Shoosh” to Gable’s entrance music is gold.

That was as close to an NXT level tag banger we will ever get on any main show, TV or PPV PREMIUM LIVE EVENT.
Best part of the night easy.

I don't get it. At all. It's kind of a small horse, I mean what am I missing? Am I crazy?

RK-Bro is easily Orton's best work in probably close to a decade.

I loved the stipulation of 3 guys being in the ring at once and only being able to tag your own partner. Far superior to the usual 2 men in the ring at once and can tag anyone rule that most wrestling these days does. Great match.

A hell of a match, I thought they would do some schmozz finish and then run it back again at the end of the night but it was a great performance by all 6 competitors.

Is Orton v Riddle still on the cards for WM? Because a lot of people were predicting that, but with three RAWs to go, it’ll either have to come via a face v face arrangement or a rushed three-week breakup angle. I reckon they just defend the tag belts.

That RKO to Gable is up there with the Shooting StaRKO as Randy's best use of the move.

I reckon they just defend the tag belts. Highly doubt it. I imagine they’ll defend against the Profits and Alpha in a triple threat. I can see Riddle turning on Orton eventually, given how white hot Orton is right now.

It was awesome. Probably the best free TV tag match since the Shield/Wyatt days or New Day vs Y2AJ

IMO no act in WWE today is hotter than RKBro and I hope they stay together for a long long time. Make that Orton's new default instead of snake betrayer scheme man. Add in Alpha Academy being great foils for them and KO and Rollins' in ring and you have an absolute banger match.

At this point, I really don't see a need for Randy to betray Riddle at all.

Basically the same thing happening again when him and Wyatt were teaming and they gelled so well with Harper that there was no reason to break them up but they did You have no reason to rush Riddle/Randy. Even tho I still think it will be Riddle turning on Randy

But not yet. tbh, a four way (RkBro, Alpha, Owens/Rollins, Profits) that ends with Owens huffing after and then Austin coming out to shut him up would work.

It kills multiple birds with one stone and after the way they just worked I wouldn’t mind a rematch

RK-Bro has been better than it had any right being on paper. I really hope they just let it ride a little longer. You wanna break 'em up? Do it for Summerslam. Just let us enjoy it a little bit more

Would be a nice twist on things if it's Orton who's getting betrayed rather than him doing the betrayal.
