Randy Orton has become a 20-year-old veteran in the WWE who is universally loved by fans all around the globe. The originally introduced ruthless “legend killer” has gone on to become one of the most successful WWE Superstars of all time and without a doubt, he will go on to become a first-ballot WWE Hall of Famer.
During his two-decade-long run in the WWE, Randy Orton has accomplished a lot of things and he’s also the front runner in breaking the sixteen world championships record jointly held by Ric Flair and John Cena.
Speaking of Cena, many would accept that the rivalry between him and Randy Orton is one of the greats in the history of the WWE. The two have faced each other inside the ring on umpteenth occasions. Some of the fans were even frustrated to see WWE re-booking this match from time to time. No matter what, it’s undeniable that the two do hold great in-ring chemistry.

“I love John, he was my favorite opponent. Coming up, through my career, I learned a lot from him. I just remember it being like, every other match I had with John. Especially, big match John, whether it was Manias, SummerSlams, Royal Rumbles, you name it.
He always had the crowd in the palm of him hand. It was a little because they loved him so much, or they hated him so much. He really knew how to get those emotions from them. So it was not just some coincidence. Dude’s a genius. I miss you, John. I miss you.”
