Mixed martial arts champion Georges St-Pierre posts a social-media video in which he practices WWE star Randy Orton’s signature “RKO.” The clip sparks attention among fans across both UFC and WWE audiences, with Orton eventually acknowledging the tribute.
According to NDTV, Orton responds on X after noticing the video, and viewers react to the unexpected crossover between the two sports. While the focus is on the gesture itself, the coverage centers on how the moment travels online and how fans interpret the tribute. The reports frame it as a light, indirect connection rather than any announced collaboration, matchup, or official event between WWE and UFC.
Overall, the outlets agree that the incident begins with St-Pierre imitating the RKO, followed by Orton’s recognition and widespread fan reaction on social media.
