Batista vs. Randy Orton

Batista came out first, and Orton then came out with Rhodes and Manu. Orton got a big pop, which seems to be common lately.

Early on Orton threw Batista outside the ring and Rhodes and Manu started beating on him, prompting the referee to send Rhodes and Manu to the back.

At one point Orton charged Batista and Batista moved, sending Orton flying over the top rope and landing similar to the time he got his shoulder injury. Not this time though, and Orton was able to quickly regain the advantage with that DDT while the opponent's feet are on the ropes move. He then followed it up with the chinlock of doom, which he held onto for awhile.

There is a surprising lack of heat in this match, especially considering who's involved. Late in the match, Batista hit a spinebuster and got a two count. He then went for the Batista bomb, but Orton reversed for the RKO, but Batista pushed him off and slammed him to the mat. He then went for a spear but met Orton's foot. Orton hit the neckbreaker for another two count. Orton positioned himself to get the RKO, but Batista caught him for another slam and a two count. Orton got up and hit a DDT and then went for the punt, but Batista caught him and worked away on Orton in the corner. Orton tried to pull him off, but Batista had him caught and hit a Batista bomb and got the three count.
