          Wrestler Randy Orton's signature move, the "RKO," blew up the Internet last week, as creative Web users added the WWE star to famous viral videos that showed people falling hard. The trend itself went viral, with clip after clip of Orton "wreaking havoc." (For examples, watch this and this and this and this.)

          On Saturday, a pair of Scottish soccer players/footballers brought the meme to life. After Gary Harkins scored what would eventually be the winner for Dundee (not this Dundee), teammate Jim McAlister came OUTTA NOWHERE to slam Harkins to the ground.

          Lest we think this was a sneak attack, Harkins tweeted his approval.

          Even better: So did Orton himself.
