Kevin Nash Has A Great Idea For Randy Orton (It Involves Batman)

September 21, 2022

It’s an idea. Wrestlers have a weird connection with acting, as they often act in their roles as wrestlers but they are rarely seen as anything more than a wrestler in mainstream acting roles. That gives them a very niche role to fill but occasionally someone will break out with a different kind of appearance. One WWE legend has an idea about how another legend should be used. September 17 was the annual Batman Day, which prompted several discussions related to the franchise. WWE got involved by sending out a tweet asking which WWE Superstar should play Batman. Hall Of Famer Kevin Nash responded with Randy Orton, who has dabbled in acting over the years. Nash has also acted, including in the comic book movies Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 and The Punisher. Pick a WWE Superstar to play Batman.#BatmanDay — WWE (@WWE) September 17, 2022 @RandyOrton — Kevin Nash (@RealKevinNash) September 18, 2022 Opinion: This is one of those things that is little more than some fun and that is nev..

LOOK: Randy Orton Has Changed Up His Look While Away From WWE

June 26, 2022

It’s a different way to go. Wrestling is a lot of things, but ultimately it is a visual medium that needs someone to be able to see the wrestlers. If a wrestler does not catch your attention with their appearance, it can be a lot more difficult to find a reason to connect with them. That means a change in appearance can make a lot of difference and that might be the case again. Following WrestleMania Backlash and a loss to the Usos, RKBRo was attacked by the Bloodline, resulting in Randy Orton being written off of television. Orton has a real life back injury that could keep him off of television for the remainder of the year. Some photos have appeared on Twitter showing Orton with a clean shaven face, rather than his usual mustache, sitting by a pool in Missouri. There is currently no specific date on when Orton will return to the ring. Pics from yesterday of @RandyOrton at a pool in St. Charles,Missouri with a few lucky fans. He musta shaved the day before because he had a stache &..

WWE Offers Medical Update On Two Banged Up Stars

May 22, 2022

They’re a bit banged up. WWE has a lot of television time available to them and it can be difficult to find ways to fill in all of that time. The company has several wrestlers available to help, but sometimes they need to make a few changes for the sake of a little freshening up. That seems to be the case again, as we might not be seeing a pair of stars, at least for a little bit. The main event of this week’s SmackDown saw the Usos defeat RKBro to unify the SmackDown and Raw Tag Team Titles. Following the match, the Bloodline attacked RKBro and laid both of them out, including putting Riddle through the announcers’ table. After the show, WWE released a medical update on Riddle and Randy Orton. Riddle has suffered a bruised hip and lower back while Orton will be undergoing a medical evaluation. There is no word on when the two will be back in the ring. UPDATE: @SuperKingofBros and @RandyOrton are undergoing medical evaluation following #TheBloodline's vicious attack on #SmackDow..

WWE Confirms Another WrestleMania 38 Title Match (And It’s Bigger Than Before)

March 21, 2022

Put them on the list. We are less than two weeks away from WrestleMania 38 and the card is mostly put together. There are still a lot of wrestlers that need something to do at the show though and that can be a rather narrow selection for some people. There aren’t a lot of spots for some wrestlers but now two of them have their WrestleMania spots officially locked in. The official WrestleMania Twitter account has announced that RKBro will defend the Raw Tag Team Titles against the Street Profits and the Alpha Academy in a triple threat at WrestleMania 38. This is the first time that the match has been made official after RKBro accepted the Profits’ challenge last week on Monday Night Raw, with Alpha Academy attacking both teams after the challenge was accepted. The match will take place on Night Two of WrestleMania on April 3. #RKBro will defend the #WWERaw Tag Team Championship in a Triple Threat Match at #WrestleMania 38!@RandyOrton @SuperKingofBros @MontezFordWWE @AngeloDawkins @ot..

January 25, 2022

The field keeps getting stacked. The Royal Rumble is less than five days away and that means WWE has a lot of spots to fill in and not much time left to do it. There have been a lot of names set already but WWE likes to wait until the very last minute to make some announcements. That was the case again this week, as some more names were added to the fields. WWE has announced that seven more names have been added to the men’s Royal Rumble field. Before this week’s Monday Night Raw went on the air, WWE tweeted that the following names had joined the match: Omos Randy Orton Riddle Chad Gable Otis Dolph Ziggler Robert Roode With these new additions, there are twenty two out of thirty entrants announced for the men’s match. At the same time, there are also twenty two entrances set for the women’s edition. There is no word on if any more names will be announced.

Monday Night Raw Star Out Of Action With Broken Rib

September 17, 2021

Catch you later. With so many wrestlers and personalities on the WWE roster, it can be difficult to keep track of what everyone is doing. There are only so many spots available for all of those people and sometimes WWE needs to leave a few people off of the shows. That seems to be the case again on Monday Night Raw, as one prominent name is going on the shelf. WWE has announced that MVP has suffered a broken rib and will be out of action for an undisclosed amount of time. The injury took place on Monday when Randy Orton took MVP out with an RKO on the floor. There is no word on why MVP is being taken off of television or when he will be back. MVP has been serving as Bobby Lashley’s manager for the last year plus. BREAKING: Due to an RKO from @RandyOrton this past Monday night on #WWERaw, @The305MVP suffered a broken rib and is out indefinitely. pic.twitter.com/PbBPL0W1S7 — WWE (@WWE) September 17, 2021 MVP has been pretty great at what he does.

Burger King Weighs In On Current WWE Storyline

July 1, 2021

I guess that’s their taste. With so many things going on in WWE at any given time, it can be difficult to keep track of everything. Sometimes you have some angles which stand out more than others, but everyone is going to be impressed by something else. That is the case with run of the mill fans, but also apparently the case with a huge chain of fast food restaurants. This week on Monday Night Raw, Damian Priest and Riddle spoke backstage, with the two talking about going to Burger King to have the new CH*KING sandwich. Later in the week, Riddle sent out a tweet showing the two at the restaurant, with Riddle praising the sandwich and telling Randy Orton he needed to try it. The Burger King Twitter account responded, saying that this is the best storyline in wrestling at the moment. Riddle and Orton have been teaming together since April, though Orton was missing from this week’s Monday Night Raw. Thanks @ArcherOfInfamy for the stallion lunch and @RandyOrton you gotta try the CH’KING ..
