March 2, 2009

is the date that Randy Orton vs. Triple H was officially announced for WrestleMania 25. The background information is as follows:

As the World Wrestling Entertainment had been hinting at a potential HHH/RKO rivalry since January 19, 2009, when Orton punted Vince McMahon in the head, it definitely came as a shock to the WWE Universe when Orton announced he would be facing the winner of tonight's World Heavyweight Championship bout between John Cena and Edge at WrestleMania. He stated this was his decision because HHH would be going to jail for attempting assault on him and his Legacy with a conceiled, deadly weapon (the sledgehammer). Triple H then hit the ring, sledgehammer in hand. He entered the ring and exchanged strong words with Orton until Orton finally changed his mind deciding he would face Triple H at WrestleMania 25 for the WWE Championship. His new decision did, however, come with a condition: Triple H can not touch Orton until WrestleMania. The Game agreed to this stipulation and then exited the ring. All seemed fine until Orton opened his mouth to continue the segment. Orton said even though he wasn't in control of his actions he enjoyed punting Shane and Vince McMahon in the skull, but he mostly liked RKOing Triple H's wife, Stephanie McMahon. Orton then talked about Stephanie in a more personal manner. For example, he brought up her scent and soft skin. The angered WWE Champion turned back and rushed the ring, forcefully going eye-to-eye with Orton. HHH said his final part, simply stating last time he faced Orton he broke his collar bone, this time he would break his neck.

The match is set, the story has unfolded, who will come out victorious. Will HHH avenge his wife and retain the WWE Championship OR will Randy Orton destroy the final McMahon standing, thus becoming the new WWE Champion? Find out when WrestleMania 25 goes LIVE! April 5th 2009!!!!!
