Randy Orton was cocky tonight as he believed he could defeat Undertaker easily and Benoit was just a mere obstacle. Following up last years match at Sumerslam, Orton and Benoit were at it again in a 30 minute match. In the end Orton beat Benoit with an RKO after sustaining back and elbow damage. Suddenly the Undertaker came out giving Randy Orton a devastating Chokeslam in the middle of the ring.
