Randy Orton Inducts His Father "Cowboy" Bob Orton Jr. Into The 2005 WWE Hall Of Fame
A great match from the Philadelphia Spectrum, May 1985. This was only a little over a month since Mr. Wonderful turned face, so he was white hot with the Philly crowd. Pretty funny slip-up by Orton at 2:09 when he miscalculates a jump to the turnbuckle and ends up falling out of the ring.
