WWE Monday Night Raw Results (10/7): Big Show Fired, Hall of Famers Return, Cody Rhodes & Goldust in the Main Event & More

RANDY ORTON VS. KOFI KINGSTON

Kofi takes the first part of the match, firing away with chops and right hands, knocking Orton out of the ring. Kofi keeps clutching his ribs, and appears to be in some pain after that loss to Bray Wyatt last night. Kofi follows up with a few kicks and tries for a top rope crossbody, but Orton rolls out of the way and throws him to the floor as we cut to a commercial. 

During the break, Orton dropped Kofi hard on the barricade and took control. Kofi breaks out of a rest hold and comes off the top rope with a flying forearm. He runs the ropes but gets caught with a standing dropkick from The Viper. They battle up to the top rope and Kofi fights back with right hands. Tilt-a-whirl DDT off the top rope, and Kingston has an opening. A series of three dropkicks takes down Orton, followed by a kick out of the corner. He heads up top again, and nails a flying crossbody with about 12 feet of air. He tries for Trouble in Paradise, but settles for the S.O.S. for a close two-count. 

Kingston heads to the apron and springboards off the top rope, but Orton catches him in mid-air and sends him down hard with a power slam. He tries for the Hangman's DDT, but Kofi gets free and sends Orton to the floor. They battle out around the announce table, and Randy tosses Kingston into the barricade. He picks him up and drops him ribs-first off the barricade, before hitting him with the Hangman's DDT. Orton rolls them back into the ring at a count of nine, and hits the RKO for the win. 

Winner: Randy Orton

Daniel Bryan hits the ring and attacks Orton. Bryan is on fire and throws The Viper over the announce table, following up and continuing the assault until about a dozen officially separate them. They keep going and Orton runs to the back as Bryan chases after him.
