Randy Orton and AJ Styles faced each other in WrestleMania 35 where AJ Styles beat Orton to score a massive victory. Since then, both the stars lost much of their momentum. They have been without a credible storyline for much of 2019. WWE had been teasing a rivalry between the duo since Survivor Series. Randy Orton turned face a few weeks back after he helped Rey Mysterio win the US Championship from AJ Styles.

While the duo failed to appear on WWE Tables Ladders and Chairs (TLC) due to the match card being stacked, Orton and Styes got their much-anticipated fight on WWE RAW. After dominating the early proceedings, Orton soon found himself locked in a calf-crusher by Styles. With Orton clearly struggling to get back on his feet, Styles went on the top ropes for a springboard-DDT. Randy Orton reversed the move for a brutal mid-air RKO to get the pin.
