The Legacy

The Legacy was a heel tag team in World Wrestling Entertainment. Legacy was founded by Randy Orton and formed out of the Priceless tag team of Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase Jr.. All members of The Legacy consisted of either second or third generation superstars.

At The Slammy Awards Episode of Raw, on December 8, Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes, and Manu announced their partnership after Cody and Manu accepted Orton's offer for an alliance, calling themselves The Legacy. Later that night, on their debut/first match as The Legacy, they defeated Orton's past partners, Triple H and Batista (Evolution). In their second match, they faced John Cena and Batista, where Cody & Manu kept Cena distracted long enough for Orton to punt Batista's head, kayfabe injuring him. On December 22, Sim Snuka asked Orton if he can join The Legacy, but The Legend Killer didn't made his answer clear. On the December 29 edition of Raw, Orton put his potential teammates to the test. Cody, Manu and Sim Snuka had to compete in separate matches, the condition being: 'If you win your match, you're still in The Legacy, but if you lose, you're out'. They all succeed the test, except Manu who lost to the ECW Champion Matt Hardy. The next week, Orton said to Manu that he was indeed out of The Legacy. Rhodes and Snuka won tag match later that night, however Cody was the one who got the pin, therefore Cody was still in the group, but Snuka was out of it, just like Manu. On January 12, edition of Raw, Ted DiBiase Jr. made his return, apparently siding with Manu and Snuka as they walked towards the ring, ready to confront Orton. At the last second, DiBiase and Rhodes suddenly started beating on Snuka and Manu, with Orton joining in. Soon afterwards it became apparent that DiBiase had joined The Legacy.
