So who do/did you like better and why?
While i think both teams had the great tagteam heel domination thing going on, I'll go with the power trip as Trips and Austin were more championship material in my opinion.

Rated RKO didn't live up to any standard and I just thought they were basically an egg and hammer to DX.
Power Trip on the other hand was a fantastic combination of two great heels working together and wrecking through everything.
In fact, I really loved their match with the Hardyz. Holy crap that was a good match

The Power Trip were pushed so much more than Rated RKO, Tripper was in it and anything Tripper is in gets pushed to the moon, RRKO were better for me as the 2 really gelled as 2 heels that are not the biggest but by any means necessary got wins under their belts in the main events, which unfortunately were far too sparse with DX around.

The point i was making is Team Rated RKO could have done exactly the same but because it was Orton & Edge, they didn't run with them that far. I'm sure if the opportunity arises for Trips to team with another Main Eventer they would then win all the straps, but with Trips as the world champ, because he believes he is the main man around today. |

I don't think they could have done the same. Edge nor Orton were anywhere near being the heels Austin and Triple H wear and from my memory I don't remember many Rated RKO matches being that good, GRANTED they were mainly all against DX.

The Power Trip is a much better team than Rated RKO. Austin and HHH were so over as heels, and basically when they held all the belts it was awesome. Rated RKO is awesome though. All four of these guys are some of my favorite wrestlers of all time though.

I'm gonna say Power Trip for the same reason most people did, Rated RKO didn't get pushed as much as them so we didn't get a chance to see what they could do. However, I don't think they should have pushed Rated RKO like they did Power Trip. At the time, Power Trip was meant to be the focus of the entire show. The Rock was in Hollywood, Undertaker and Kane were busy doing I don't even remember what (I think Undertaker was involved with the whole DDP stalker angle), and they were being used to simultaneously dominate the Federation while helping move guys like Jericho, Benoit, and the Hardyz to the next level. When Rated RKO were together there were other prime products on Raw like DX and John Cena. Given I think Rated RKO were more enjoyable to watch than both the aforementioned, WWE was focusing on them as their main product. It wouldn't have made sense to job them out Orton and Edge.

Actually you're wrong about a few things. Taker wasn't yet in volved with the DDP stalker storyline until around June, July. Then Taker and Kane had their match against DDP and Kanyon that Summerslam. But before all that, Kane and Taker were feuding with Power Trip while Hardyz were still getting in on their revenge also |
