The Apex Predator, Randy Orton, is best known for sending his competitors to shadow realms after hitting them with an RKO out of nowhere. The Viper is a stunner when it comes to standing against his opponents inside the square circle. 

He has been the WWE champion fourteen times in his illustrated career and has plenty left; who knows, he can even come neck to neck with John Cena and Ric Flair as the superstar with the most WWE championship reigns in history. 

WWE fanatics might know a lot of Orton’s in-ring talent, but many fans don’t know The Legend Killer is also a big-time gamer. He might not look like a man like Randy Orton, who loves to RKO people inside the ring and would also like to smash his finger on a gaming controller. 

Recently, Randy Orton appeared on the WWE special podcast hosted by The American Nightmare Cody Rhodes, What Do You Wanna Talk About, where The Apex Predator and his old buddy Cody Rhodes had a fun conversation where Rhodes and Orton revisited their old times and talked about multiple things. The Viper even took shots at NBA legend LeBron James. 

While talking at one point, Randy Orton revealed he had completed about 600 hours on the Elden Ring game back in 2023. He even revealed he paid $1000 to someone to upgrade his ranking in the game.

Former WWE champion Randy Orton even revealed that he, too, wanted to lean more towards the entertainment industry and do some roles in Hollywood, just like his fellow former WWE superstars John Cena, Batista, and The Rock. 

While talking, Randy Orton revealed how he got auditioned for the ‘Cable’ character from Deadpool 2. 

Randy Orton stated, “I read for Cable, and in my head, boy, I was going to be Cable. I was going to be Cable. I was like, 'This is it'. Nope. No callback, no nothing. Josh Brolin gets it because, of course, Josh Brolin gets it. Kills it. I don't know what the f*** I'm doing. “ 

He further said, “I kind of realized then, 'Oh, okay, I can send in these auditions, but I'm a pro wrestler.'" I think I enjoy being a pro wrestler and everything it's given me. I don't think I'll ever leave this place.”
