#3. The Viper DDTs and Kisses Stephanie McMahon
By 2009, no one was safe from Randy Orton, not even the McMahon Family. The Viper began feuding with his bosses in the early part of the year. It started with verbal insults, but quickly got physical in an ugly way. Vince McMahon was about to fire Orton, but was instead met with a Punt Kick.
Stephanie McMahon brought back her brother, Shane O’Mac, to neutralize the Randy Orton problem. However, Orton had two loyal partners in Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase Jr. Together, the Legacy easily dismantled Shane McMahon’s resistance. Finally, Triple H entered the fray, but he had to pay a heavy price for being the savior.
During a Handicap match on RAW, Orton handcuffed HHH to the rope. He was about to attack his WrestleMania opponent with a Sledgehammer before Stephanie McMahon came out to save her husband. This was an ill-advised move. Rhodes and DiBiase cornered HHH’s wife, and Orton delivered a draping DDT on Stephanie.
When things couldn’t get any uglier, the Viper kissed the fallen Stephanie McMahon as Triple H looked on helplessly with anger and the crowd was appalled beyond measure.
