Cody Rhodes cost Randy Orton the WWE Title at Sunday’s WWE Royal Rumble pay per view.

Orton, who was very much the fan favorite in the match, was working against Sheamus in a pretty good match at the time Rhodes drew the disqualification.

Rhodes hopped the guard rail and attacked Sheamus on the outside in clear view of the referee.

Once back in the ring, Orton hit the WWE Champion with the RKO, but the ref called for the DQ.

Orton confronted Rhodes after the match and then beat him down, saying that he “was done.”

Ted DiBiase ran in from the back to try to break it up, but Orton assaulted him as well until Sheamus regained his composure and laide out the leader of Legacy.

Prior to the match, WWE teased the breakup of the trio through a series of backstage segments with Rhodes and DiBiase each telling Orton to be careful of the other.
