Riddle Uses The RKO To Beat Xavier Woods In Hard-Fought Match, Jaxson Ryker Pins AJ Styles

Riddle Uses The RKO To Beat Xavier Woods In Hard-Fought Match

RK-Bro isn’t just a tag team.

Randy Orton’s influence was apparent during Riddle’s match with Xavier Woods on WWE Monday Night RAW.

One week after Riddle shoved Woods to the ground, the two friends met in the ring and waged war in a remarkably competitive match. The two stars showcased their amateur wrestling craft and their impressive athleticism. Both men went all-out from the time the bell rang through the three seconds it took the referee to count the pin.

Riddle ultimately earned the win by using Randy Orton’s famous finisher, the RKO to defeat Woods.

After the bell, Riddle stole a page from Orton’s playbook by celebrating in the corner and hitting the former WWE Champion’s classic taunt.

Jaxson Ryker Pins AJ Styles

Jaxson Ryker scored the biggest win of his career on Monday night when he pinned AJ Styles.

Ryker had a little assistance, as Elias interfered to help him pin the former WWE Champion. Still, the result was quite surprising.

Ryker and Elias didn’t have long to celebrate, though. Styles’ tag team partner, Omos evened the odds and chased down Elias to punish him for his interference. He even trucked Elias into the entrance stage, showcasing his impressive power in the process.

Regardless, it seems like Elias and Ryker might challenge Omos and Styles for the WWE RAW Tag Team Championship sooner rather than later.
