#3 RKO - Randy Orton

Diamond Dallas Page is well known for performing a variation of the cutter known as the Diamond cutter. Former WWE Champion Randy Orton established the jumping cutter as his fibisher and named it the RKO.

The RKO can be used anywhere, anytime and the most important thing it will finish off the opponent. During his 14 year tenure in wrestling, Orton has used the RKO in every possible way to demolish his opponent.

Orton became the youngest World Heavyweight Champion in WWE History after defeating Chris Benoit at the age of 24. His nine months-long feud with the Undertaker is famous when he reversed a chokeslam from The Undertaker into an RKO eventually pinning him down.

Diamond Dallas might have made the cutter popular but nobody does it better than The Viper.
