We take a look at what happened at the start of Raw between Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre.
Randy Orton makes his way to the ring.
Orton says for the longest time he has done what he wanted to do when he wants to do it to whomever he wants to do it to. Last night, that wasn't the case.

He said he would kill the legend of Edge, Christian, Big Show, Ric Flair, and Shawn Michaels and that is what he did. I am the Legend Killer.
Drew McIntyre, you come out here and the opportunity presents itself and I kicked you in the skull not once, but twice and it felt so good. Do you want to know why I kicked you twice. You offered me a rematch out of pity. Who the hell are you? I will tell you who the hell I am. I am Randy Orton, I am the Legend Killer. I am the greatest.

You have been called many things, The Viper, Apex Predator, Legend Killer. I have been called many things. Game changer. Anomoly. I am limitless. Since the Limitless One is on Raw and since you are looking for a fight that no one has ever felt. With respect to his friend Drew McIntyre, I will step up if you are willing to accept the challenge. Right here, right now.
