The latest episode of Monday Night Raw sure had its moments as always. We see a lot of things happening, but none as shocking as Randy Orton betraying his own mentor Ric Flair. 

Following a match with Kevin Owens, Randy Orton was sickened at Ric Flair and blamed the entire fight on Flair’s ego. He then proceeded to trick Flair into thinking they were both good but then he delivered a low-blow to the WWE Hall Of Famer.

As Flair cried in pain, Orton took a few paces back and proceeded to deliver a devastating Punt-kick to Flair, incapacitating the 71-year-old legend. Ric Flair was knocked out cold.

Before Orton could do more damage, Drew McIntyre intervened and forced “The Viper” to flee. However, things got worse. Ric Flair couldn’t get up after that kick and had to be carried away.

WWE’s medical team arrived with a stretcher and proceeded to carefully place Flair on it. The 16-time WWE World Champion was in serious pain and won’t be ok for a while.

Ric Flair did an excellent job through the segment

Randy Orton on the other hand, has added “The Nature Boy” to his long list of legends that he has killed. Bringing back the gimmick from his early days in WWE, Orton has never looked better with this heel character.
