After two losses to Eddy and Chavo Guerrero , Page would win another 14 consecutive contests, even defeating both Guerreros, putting them down with his finishing maneuver. In , it was the year of the Diamond Cutter.
Page added to his repertoire of gold when he defeated Christian in , to take over the European Championship. A not-so-good thing was his run in TNA, although it was a short one. Debuting as a third-generation wrestler, Randy Orton quickly became a popular face in the company. A charming look and personality, a physique most wrestlers desired, and athleticism to boot, Orton was the complete package.
During a match pitting Kane against Triple H, Orton interrupted a chokslam attempt while the referee was out cold and low-blowed Kane. The title RKO is an acronym for his full name, R andall K eith O rton, and it stands true to its name, knocking out opponents that take the maneuver.
While Orton was rehabilitating a foot injury, he observed tapes of DDP and Johnny Ace, learning the move and how to utilize it to perfection.
It was a cutter, but it was three-quarter facelock, leaping cutter, which created a unique twist to an already popular finishing move. There is a long list of victims that have fallen to the RKO. All three of his Evolution teammates suffered countless RKOs during his face-turn that came hand-in-hand with his departure from the stable. Throughout his career, Randy was a fixture on WWE programming.
Wrestling Observer Newsletter dubbed him the rookie of the year in , most improved wrestler in , most hated wrestler in and , and best wrestler in and On top of his endless count of victories over big names, Orton has amassed several Championship runs. The Royal Rumble win, and becoming the 17th Triple Crown Champion in WWE history, cap off his list of achievements, but his tenure in the business is far from done.
Unfortunately, his stock took a hit in , when fans grew tired of his character, labelling him as stale and cringe-worthy. From here, the attacking wrestler twists the opposite way and quickly switches back throwing the legs of the opponent out backwards and drops down to the mat while taking hold of the opponent's head to force him to fall into a high impact cutter.
It was innovated by Marc Mero. A standing variation of the Diamond Dust in which the attacking wrestler first holds an opponent in an inverted facelock before then jumping forwards to somersault over the opponent, landing back-first with the opponent's head driven into the wrestler's shoulder. The wrestler applies an inverted facelock before hooking the opponents thighs and lifts them up so the opponents facing upside down then grabs the three-quarter faclock and pulls them down with their face on the floor.
This cutter variation sees the wrestler jumping towards the opponent and grabbing the opponent head in a three-quarter facelock while parallel to the ground, and then slamming the opponent's face to the mat in a cutter. Randy Orton uses this move as a finishing move under the name RKO. This version of a cutter sees the wrestler place an opponent in an inverted facelock then spinning under the opponent while holding the facelock, twisting him or her into the cutter position.
This move has two major variants. In the first, the attacking wrestler rolls under their opponent. A modified version which involves hoisting the opponent off their feet before beginning the spin. The second major variation sees the wrestler spin and twist the opponent in the opposite direction into the cutter.
This variation of the cutter occurs when the wrestler puts his opponent in the three-quarter facelock then usually runs towards the ropes, then jumps onto the second or third rope to bounce off it, turning in the air to land the three-quarter facelock bulldog. Another variation of this cutter exists, called the springboard backflip three-quarter facelock diving bulldog. In this cutter the opponent and the attacker are in the corner, the attacker puts the opponent in the three-quarter facelock then runs up the turnbuckle, becoming vertical, then turns in mid-air to land the cutter.
The move is similar to the Shiranui. This cutter variation sees the wrestler first lock his opponent in a front facelock. In this variation, the wrestler first lifts the opponent, so that they are lying face up across one of the wrestler's shoulders as in a Canadian backbreaker rack , before flipping the opponent over into the cutter. It is common for the wrestler to not properly apply the three-quarter facelock and the move to end up more in a facebuster position. In this variation, the attacking wrestler first gets himself in position to execute a German suplex.
As the attacking wrestler is pulling the opponent backward for a German suplex, he flips his opponent in the air and ends up where the opponent is in the cutter position.
The attacking wrestler then drops his opponent face-first into the mat, thus making this the German Suplex Cutter. This move in always done in fast succession because going from a German suplex position to a cutter position is quite difficult.
The attacking wrestler gets his opponent in the Argentine Backbreaker position as to execute the Argentine Backbreaker drop. The attacking wrestler then pushes his opponents legs so that he flips horizontally degrees. This lead to him using the Kanyon Cutter. And he used it, all right. He used it on whoever he wanted to, from DDP himself, to random civilians, even to Buff Bagwell's mom. This move was first used by Marc Mero, and most recently by Alex Riley.
