"He makes work so much fun"- Randy Orton on his close friendship with current WWE Superstar
It's been two decades since Randy Orton made his WWE debut in 2002. The company is celebrating his anniversary with the hashtag #OrtonWeek.
As part of this anniversary, the company recently released a video on their YouTube page. The former world champion is seen reacting to several of his career's most significant moments in the clip.
When talking about his recent pairing with Riddle on Monday Night RAW, The Viper was able to open up about how the star has made his job so much more fun.
"It's no secret to the WWE Universe that I'm having a lot of fun in the ring right now and that's greatly due to the fact that my partner is a lot of fun to be around. He's reinvigorated my love for being out in that ring and I think it's because he makes work so much fun. Being with Riddle, it kind of lets me take the guard down, I'm reacting or like I wanna react instead of trying to be always serious." - (12:30-13:06)
