September 15, 2003 RAW - Randy Orton gives The Fabulous Moolah an RKO
Sept. 15, 2003 was supposed to be a night of celebration for The Fabulous Moolah. RAW was in her hometown of Columbia, S.C., and Moolah took on Victoria in honor of her 80th birthday. Moolah even won the match, rolling up Victoria for the victory. Of course, Victoria was unhappy, and began to attack Moolah after the final bell had sounded.
Enter Randy Orton.
“Victoria, are you out of your mind? Do you know who this is? This is The Fabulous Moolah!” Orton screamed. “My father, my grandfather…they’ve told me stories about how tough this woman is. She does not deserve it, okay? She doesn’t deserve it!”
Orton then helped Moolah up, reminding everyone that Columbia is her hometown and that it was, in fact, her 80th birthday. At that point, Orton’s intentions became clear. After he told everyone that she was a legend, Orton turned to Moolah and shook her hand before uttering the nine words that led to Moolah’s demise:
“And by the way, I’m Randy Orton….Legend Killer.”
With that, Orton dropped Moolah with a vicious RKO as the crowd expressed their disgust. While it may have been a heinous act, it proved that no one (even an 80-year old woman) is safe from the wrath of the Legend Killer.
