Randy Orton, football tastemaker?

Randy Orton may be missing substantial time thanks to a shoulder injury that may require surgery, but that doesn't mean his presence will be missed. People love them some RKO out of  nowhere shtick, including high school football players as referenced below:

Somehow, I don't think that's a legal takedown in any level of football, not because wrestling moves are explicitly banned (look at how many German suplexes happen in a given season), but because tackling a guy by his head will net a personal foul, especially if you grab the facemask. Still, it's a fun way to blow off steam in practice.
