WWE Universe has discovered a video from the latest UK tour in which Randy Orton was seen helping a young fan.
The one-half of the RAW Tag Team Champions was interacting with fans when he spotted a kid getting squashed against a barricade. Orton immediately stopped bumping fists with other fans and asked the crowd to go back, creating enough space for the little guy to breathe comfortably.
Randy Orton continued to instruct fans in the audience to step back until the young fan in question was safe. He then bent down to hug the kid and ordered the people nearby to be careful about their presence in such a crowded space. Although the security personnel were right behind Orton, The Viper took matters into his own hands and refused to move on until he was certain that the young fan was alright.

Brock Lesnar was involved in a brutal feud with Roman Reigns on SmackDown. The Beast Incarnate failed to beat The Tribal Chief for the Universal Championship at Crown Jewel. On the following episode of the Blue brand, Lesnar unleashed hell on half the roster for which he was suspended indefinitely. Adam Pearce later confirmed that Brock Lesnar would also have to pay a million-dollar fine.
Backstage reports suggest that Lesnar will be used extensively between January and April. Thus, we could see him make a big return at the Royal Rumble. The former world champion will reportedly make multiple appearances during the build-up to WrestleMania next year. He is also expected to continue his hunt for the Universal Championship when he returns.
