In July 2004, he won the World Heavyweight Championship for the first time after defeating Chris Benoit. 

Later, after successfully defending it several times, he was defeated by Triple H. When John Cena vacated the WWE Championship due to injury in 2007, Randy Orton was given the title for the first time at the No Mercy wrestling event.
