Randy Orton’s RKO deserves a list of its own. “

Rollins pedigree on Reigns at MITB was pretty solid too

How tf is shelton Benjamin getting sweet chin music not on the damn list? That was one of the best reversals of all time especially leaping across the ring and almost injuring his jaw.

Anyone remember the AA into the RKO? Kinda disappointed that wasn’t on the list but I can see why having 5 would be a bit redundant

Honorable mention: Kurt Angle triangle choke to Undertaker during Last Ride attempt

Randy Orton as heel>>>Randy Orton as face

Legend killer > viper

How can you NOT include Wrestlemania 14??? HBK goes to sweet chin music on Austin, Austin catches the foot, spins HBK around kick to the stomach, stunner, 1-2-3 and Austin wins his first ever WWF Championship. That moment is ICONIC!

I also really like the FU reversal into an RKO mid air - after years of facing each other, that felt so new to me when it happened. Randy really epitomized the flexibility of his finisher

Let’s just say, we all here are fan boys of the RKO isn’t it just beautiful (:

My favourite was Edie Guerrero reversing the ankle lock by Kurt Angle at wrestlemania by loosening his laces

What about the Spear into a Pedigree reversal, Seth Rollins did to Roman Reigns?

Chokeslam was Taker's "Signature" at the time, not his "Finisher"

Honestly, Randy should have won that match against Taker and broke the streak as Legend Killer. Instead, what did we get? Well, now we have Taker still going on and putting on god awful matches because he needed to retire a decade ago. If not him, Edge should have gone to whole new levels of heel by using heel tactics (Ref bump + belt to head, then spear) to beat him.

I liked Orton reversing the AA through a table. It was the Monday prior to the Elimination Chamber with Edge, Barret, Sheamus, Cena, Orton, and Jericho. The annoucers called Cena the victor and then Orton popped up and got his hand raised and the crowd was confused as all hell. It was great.

I keep reading people's comments asking where is Shawn Michael's Super Kick to Shelton Benjamin. Can you please tell me when Benjamin's finisher was ever a springboard move?

It's not Fake Taker. It's UnderFaker.

Ortons counter of crispin wah's crawlspace was pretty sweet

I love the vids! But it would be great if you added a clip of the moments you are talking about. No hate, just a suggestion.

As an eye witness to #2 on the list, it truly was electric when he popped up literally from nowhere to hit even bourne, truly great moment

I've always hated Randy but I gotta give credit where credit's due - when he goes for it he REALLY goes for it

Would've been better if it was in video

I love how Randy performed his RKO after being positioned by Rollins to do his curb stomp.

The Twist of Fate spun out into the RKO is my all time favorite counter. They’ve done it a few times and I pop hard every time

Damn you forgot that super kick to Sheldon Benjamin by Shawn Michael's were by God do not know how did not loose the jaw

RKO Outta Nowhere started with Carlito.

Curb Stomp into RKO was amazing in theory and execution! Still one of my favorites ever.

I'm sure you can make a list of just top 20 (yes 20) best RKO reversals because that move is just that brilliant!!

Not WWE but AJ countering Ibushi’s Phoenix Splash into Styles Clash.

RIP Eddie Guerrero

Everyone asking about Orton vs. Benjamin. Where is Orton interfering against Rey Mysterio, running down the ramp and catching Rey in the RKO while Rey was in mid-air from the 619?

I think a good iconic one is Austin catching michael's superkick and spinning him around with the middle fingers and a stunner.

Before the RKO out of nowhere there was the diamond cutter

The saddest part in WWE was Undertaker lost his streak.

Love the Benoit mentions but his reversal of the pedigree into the crossface is definitely a top 10 also. You can watch that in slow motion and still not be able to comprehend that transition. Great list

That RKO on Jeff Hardy is underrated. I’m glad it got a mention here.

Do people really get mad about too many finisher reversals? I can understand the overuse of Finisher kick out but reversals add to the match. The finisher should end the match so someone doing all this crazy shit to not get hit with the move sells it as scary which makes sense. They should get rid of 3/4th of the near falls in wrestling and replace them wsith grwat reversals. The near fall, kick out, no selling fighting spirit stuff used to be amazing but its soooo overused now it comes off as a cheap way to get a pop. We also need to nack back to 95% of wrestlers having that one move that ends the match. Maybe you could do that by going back to 90s early 2000s thing were some wrestlers had that one move that they barley did but you knew when it was hit it was over. Also a move that they might tease every match or even every few matches but only hit a hand full of times a year. Kind of like what Kobashi, Misawa, and those guys did back then. They all had a weaker main finisher but there was that one move theyd pull out when they exhauated all other options in tough or big matches. Even RVD teased in promos he was debuting a new devestating move leading up to his match against Riggs where he did the Van Terminator for the first time. Tldr; Im high and want to make finishers matter again. There is no reason anyone should kick out of the F-5 unless they are maybe someone like Undertaker, Angle, or even Cena (character wise)

RKO into Skull Crushing Finale

You guys should do a top 10 list of RKOs Outta nowhere!

Yes!!! That rko on hardy was beautiful. I was going to comment that as soon as the video started

You didn't know that the grandy ortan reversed the khalahas into TO RKO

6:53 M-5?

That was a good one Adam I have to give it to you

Great video. Also have to add Rey Mysterio's counter on Eddie at Halloween Havoc 1997

Love how he tries to hate on Reigns multiple times to try to connect with “his” youtube fans #Simonculture

Lesnar reversed Tombstone Piledriver better at No Mercy in the Hell In A Cell 😏

Twist of fate to the rko will always be my #1. Such a turnaround of emotions so fast.

This needs a follow up for just some of the best reversals in WWE. Whether it's for how fans reacted or impressive looking ones. Such as Shelton Benjamin and HBK, AJ's springboard 450 into Shane's triangle or fan favourites like Austin reversing a super kick for the title.

*Wrestling.*

Why can't you guys add video to your top list. Looking at pictures of the best reversals are just lame...

I watched that Evan borne one when I was around 9-10 and I actually shed tears

Wrestlemania 14 HBK vs. Austin. Sweet chin music gets reversed twice and Austin hits stunner. Don't forget the classics What Culture

It’s has all been to odd and funny to see how big Randy Orton has become... Knowing him since we were kids and still making fun of him PM... At least he’s doing a lot better than you start off doing he used to get made fun of a lot when he started in the WWE Happy to see him really do this good for that long... over all I can remember the conversation we had as he was getting ready to go to wrestling school...

Rhyno needs push in WWE

My favorite wrestling moment Shawn superkick ING Shelton I love it . Brings back memories of ruthless agresion

Randy's reversals hats off 🙌🙌

Sin Cara should be in 205 live instead of SD Live

Undertaker is the best and will be forever

There are usually at least a 100 jabs in a boxing match so it's def not as common also the twist of fate and rko are real similar which makes it even doper

Lesnars reversal of the tombstone into an f5 at no mercy 2002 is still my favourite. So much blood

Chokeslam to RKO sucked. Seemed like a botched RKO. lol

Shit, the bad Adam is here...

Any chance of expanding lists like this to all of wrestling, or doing franchise-specific ones beyond WWE? I ask because for this list, DDP reversing the Jackhammer into his Diamondcutter at Halloween Havoc '98 would deserve a slot - especially since it was basically Orton's RKO before Orton even started wrestling.

The Knee! Lmao😂

"Done a fuckload on raw" - shows smackdown 😂😂😂

The one against Evan Bourne is so overrated because he was falling face first on the mat already. I'd take the original 'RKO outta nowhere' against Benoit any day of the week.

One of the best counters that nobody remembers is Ken Shamrock reversing Taker's chokeslam into an armbar at Backlash 1999.

This list is great

Unpopular opinion. Orton should have beaten Undertaker at Mania.

A great vid ruined by another adam.....I got no prob with the "adam" thing and guy's nice voice just somehting dosnt feel like watching through rest of vid when he speaks(Had to cause this list was awesome!)

Oh yes!! I totally agree, easily the best reversal ever!

#1 is the best thing I've ever seen. I remember my reaction first time.

Rko #2 looked like a botch. Lesnar"s head didnt hit that title vs. Eddie. Evan bourne was already falling.

Michaels sweet chin music on Benjamin not being on this list is blasphemy.

Wouldn’t be a list without some RKO’s in there. Remember the one vs Undertaker, was convinced that was the streak being ended, epic counter. Very good top 10

Austin reversing Sweet Chin Music at Mania should have made this list.

Just talk about wrestling in your videos don’t bring up jewels’s search history or try to get these new what culture personalities that nobody likes over. We are here for wrestling, your not like the old cast so just don’t.

What you said about Ortons arm pose is so true haha

How about Baron Corbin's reversal to the end of days on Kalisto's hurricanrana on SDL? Imo that was great.

Ortons reversal of the AA putting Cena through a table. That was an incredible reversal.

RKO's out of nowhere never gets old!

Can't believe Austin spinning hbk 360° to a stunner isn't on here. It changed the attitude era/ passed the torch and made for a damn good reversal in no mercy on N64

apparently a more underappreciated rko out of nowhere is the first one i can date vs. chris benoit at summerslam '04. a pretty huge moment considering it was his first world title win

Cena vs micheals entire fued was awesome

I got to #2 and was already prepping myself to go into the comments and ask how the Curb Stomp reversal from WM31 could possibly be left off of this list. ...good job shutting me up. LOL

Good list, but you left out the best one, 'Jurassic RKO' where Randy delivered an RKO to a T-Rex 😂

Love how u put Benoit in the vid

The knee!!!😂😂

I think the very first RKO "Out of Nowhere" was Orton vs Benoit. It literally came out of nowhere because Benoit was the champ and it was so damn fluid, a german suplex to both wrestlers spinning around and an RKO and a finish nobody quite expected.

Rollins reversal of Roman’s spear into a pedigree at money in the bank 2016 was dope.

That curb stomp rko reversal is easily my favorite

It's funny because you'll never be more than the third best Adam from Whatculture.

You really love the Diamond Cutter 😉

the Evan Bourne RKO is my favorite.

You forgot the RKOs out of nowhere he had with Shelton Benjamin, he flew from one end of the ring to the other just to get RKOd will never forget that

the f5 reversal of tombstone that I remember is the hell in cell one for the wwe title at No Mercy I expected it at Wrestlemania 30.

The Seth Frog Splash reversed into the Rko from Survivor Series 16 is the best ever

That RKO on Rollins was a masterpiece

You can do a how list of reversals just for the RKO

What about the reversal from the pedigre that Chris Benoit did to HHH? It’s beautiful
