WWE Raw: 3 Must-See Moments
Randy Orton’s 20th Anniversary Celebration

To kick off WWE Raw, Riddle celebrated 20 years of his tag team partner. Riddle has shown his love and respect for Orton ever since beginning their team last year. In celebration, Cody Rhodes came to the ring to show his respect for his former Legacy teamamte. Ezekial even came to the ring to offer up his praise. At this moment Seth Rollins decided to crash the celebration. Kevin Owens and The Usos followed up which led to a heated exchange between both sides. With tempers flaring, an 8-man tag team main event match was quickly signed for later in the night.
