Randy Orton has been one of the top WWE superstars for over a decade, recently celebrating his 15-year anniversary since his television debut.

Since then he's collected accolade after accolade, become The Legend Killer and is still at the top of the mountain as WWE Champion, defeating Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 33 to begin yet another title reign. 

The Apex Predator sat down with WWE.com to reflect on his long career, sharing some great insight. Orton cuts away from being The Viper and opens up, making for a great interview. Perhaps most interesting was Orton picking out his favorite RKO of all-time, and it's a doozy.

The RKO is one of the best moves in the WWE. It, quite literally, comes out of nowhere. There's no long setup, no calling card that it's coming and no turning back once The Viper has his opponent in his grip. 

Orton was asked what his favorite RKO of all-time is and he gave a great response, naming a handful of examples before settling on an amazing sequence with Evan Bourne back in 2010.

 

"I would say probably the one with Evan Bourne. It just shows you how important timing is and I felt like the timing on that particular one was harder to achieve than any of the other ones. The one on Seth [Rollins] at WrestleMania was difficult, too," Orton said.

Now what would this be without the visual of Orton nailing Bourne with the RKO? Let's observe the tape and see for ourselves what the hype is on this one:

"I've done some cool ones with Dolph [Ziggler] and Cesaro, too, and springboards in with Carlito and CM Punk. The timing is what makes that. But the hardest one, the highest-risk one to hit perfect was the Evan Bourne one, and that'd probably be why it's my favorite," Orton said.

Orton's RKO has become a cultural phenomenon because of how quick hitting it is, how simple it is in concept, and how creative he's used it throughout his career. The Bourne RKO was definitely a thing of beauty. 

Now we can only hope that his Payback House of Horror's match gives us at least one amazing and creative RKO spot to mark out to. You just never know when The Viper is going to strike.
