WWE Champ down in a 3-in-1 Gauntlet Match
Though it was for a short period that Trump was there at Raw but he has changed the whole scenario by shaking up the Superstars with a 15-Superstar trade. He has not only shuffled the Superstars but has done quite a remarkable job in making the whole world of WWE more entertaining with its increased uncertainty and shocks.
Although Randy Orton was able to make it at The Bash, grabbing his WWE title back from his long term foe but with the entry of five new Superstars from other brands to Raw and The Animal back in action but as a special guest host, it doesn’t seem he is going to have a hustle-free time ahead. He was to face three Superstars in a 3-on-1 Gauntlet Match as put in by Batista, unaware of whom to fight with before the match. Though he was aware of the fact that the three opponents he was going to face would be from the brand other than Raw but didn’t know would be all three from ECW.
First one to go was Evan Bourne. In the beginning, it seemed the high-flying ECW Superstar was going to wipe out The Viper but got a stunning RKO from the WWE Champion after showing some of his best moves in air. After that, Orton pinned him down for his first victory in that match.
Next one to go and with Orton’s surprise was Jack Swagger from ECW only. But it appeared he came just for the formality of being there. He didn’t even enter the ring and left Randy Orton bewildered after he got disqualified after 10-counts from the referee. After that, he shook Orton’s hand, making an impression at Raw. That earned the WWE Champion another victory in that 3-on-1 Gauntlet Match.
To his biggest surprise and fear too, next one turned out to be the Strongest Man in the World Mark Henry, he too from ECW. He also seemed to do the same thing as his ECW Co-Superstar Jack Swagger did and gave relief for a moment to Orton. It was at the last count that Mark Henry ceased referee’s hand and entered the ring, went after The Viper who was still under the impact of Triple H’s assaults at The Bash and hence no where to go. He thrashed him quite badly and made him taste the world’s strongest slam followed by a pin fall. That strong assault from Mark Henry must have left a mark in depth.
There is still a lot more to come, so wait for next surprise.
