Guest Undying Fury Report post Posted August 16, 2004 Randy Orton as the World Champion...I knew it was coming but this just doesn't sit right with me especially winning it from Benoit. Damn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Staravenger Report post Posted August 16, 2004 God damn it, oh well, at least Benoit had a decent reign. Don't try and kid yourself. Benoit was treated like crap as World Champion, couldnt' beat Triple H clean in the last month, was in a secondary feud with Kane, and has barely been on RAW as the World Champion. Some good reign.

Guest Tjhe CyNick Report post Posted August 16, 2004 People are going to pop huge for a title switch, just because they got to see history. Oh BTW, whoever said Toronto killed the HHH/Jerihco match at Mania 18, do you thinkt he dog crap angle had anything to do with that? Or should people get excited about an angle that is built on dog crap rather than a world championship? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JMA Report post Posted August 16, 2004 I guess they really didn't want Brock to have the "youngest champion" title, huh? I think that's one of the reasons Randy won tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Report post Posted August 16, 2004 I'm really interested in seeing this show now, I root for the heels most of the time (sans MUGATaker) and I want to see HHH get a monster pop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2004 Orton won clean? Shit. I guess they really didn't want Brock to have the "youngest champion" title, huh? Brock is still the youngest WWE Champion. Orton is just the youngest World Heavyweight Champion. That is, until Shane and Marissa's baby defeats JBL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LooseCannon25 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2004 Randy Orton cried with joy in the middle of the ring, while Benoit's music plays.....lol The seeds have definitely been planted, Orton showing respect to Benoit, and Evolution not celebrating. I say Evolution turns on Orton in 3 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vyce 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2004 So, they put the belt on THAT chump, with only about 2 weeks build for the match at that. Fuck the WWE. And also, fuck Toronto.

Guest Bitterness the Star Report post Posted August 16, 2004 Well, all I can say is shit. Not necessarily because it was, but because I'm so shocked. Who honestly expected Benoit to fall to that RKO? Agreed Deon, that was a beautiful ending, and Orton turning after this would have the ability to get rid of his entire heel past. Quite a match as it progressed. Who could've fathomed Randy Orton leading the Raw pack? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
