He successfully comes close to the ropes but when he is inches way from them Edge pulls him back to the center of the ring. Orton continues to scream in pain and frustration and Pepsi Center start chanting: “Randy, Randy, Randyâ€. Orton once again starts making his long way of reaching the ropes. He stretches in despair his right arm and accomplishes to reach the ropes, and when he reaches the ropes he pulls and pushes his legs making Edge ran toward the referee bringing him down. Edge looks shocked at the knocked down referee and finally turns around, only to get connected by a surprising and unexpected RKO, which is received by a lot of cheers from the entire audience. Orton grabs his previously punished leg and after seconds of agony he drags and covers Edge, but there is no referee.
Styles: One…Two…Three…Four, c’mon Randy, wake up that referee!
Orton gets up whining and complaining. He goes toward where the referee is and shakes him, first quietly but then violent trying to wake up the referee, but with no avail. He gives up and goes toward Edge. He tries to lift him up but Edge fights back and connects a low blow that brings Orton down. Edge then drags himself, really punished, to the opposite corner, and starts taunting the Spear.
