There are few things in this world more precious to Randy Orton than the WWE Championship. Unfortunately for the reigning champion, he’s hardly the only one who harbors such affinity for WWE’s most prized possession.
Triple H, his opponent at The Bash, has also been known to pine for the cherished gold – and to stop at nothing to obtain it.
The question of who will enter the match as champion, however, remains to be answered. Raw’s new owner, Donald Trump, couldn’t wait to see these two clash. Therefore, the billionaire businessman arranged a Last Man Standing Title Match between Orton and Triple H during the upcoming Monday Night Raw.
The WWE Champion and his opponent share a long and tumultuous history than spans nearly a decade. Most recently, their animosity reached tragic proportions when Orton and his Legacy henchmen Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase began systematically targeting the McMahon family, including Triple H’s wife, Stephanie.
After decimating the most storied family in the history of the squared-circle, the WWE Champion snuffed out their last shining light when he punted the skull of The Game at Backlash. In the wake of the devastating kick, Triple H wasn’t seen or heard from for weeks. That is, until the WWE Universe witnessed the return of The King of Kings to Monday Night Raw.
Prior to Triple H’s return, however, Orton and The Legacy attacked the then-WWE Champion Batista before a scheduled title match, sending The Animal from the arena on a stretcher. As The Viper waited to be ordained the WWE Champion, The Game crashed the coronation. Exacting a long-awaited vengeance, an enraged Triple H plowed through Rhodes & DiBiase en route to the man who attacked his family and put him on the shelf – obliterating his nemesis with a Pedigree onto a steel chair.
With Batista injured and the WWE Title up for grabs, a Fatal Four Way Match commenced the following week to determine who would reign. Animosity hung thick in the air as Orton, Triple H, John Cena and Big Show all collided for the honor. It was The Viper, however, who would emerge victorious among the wreckage.
And now, Orton must defend his title against the man who has vowed to extract every bit of flesh he feels he’s owed. Can Orton possibly evade the wrath that awaits him to retain the title? Or will Triple H be able to overcome The Viper and his network of annihilation, The Legacy?
