Randy Orton has been active in WWE for the last 25 years, and no doubt he is one of the biggest legends of the promotion right now. He was introduced among the main roster audience of WWE back in 2002 during the early Ruthless Aggression Era, and he got an early big break when he became a part of the Evolution faction.
In 2004, he created history when he won the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam. He became the youngest World Champion in WWE history, and the record is still intact after 21 years. That was just his beginning, and he went on to become one of the biggest stars of the wrestling world in the following years. Presently, he is treated as a legend in WWE.

“It was the best rub ever, dude. I’m sure y’all know this about the Viper already, but none of that happened in rehearsal. In rehearsal, I was supposed to push Dom into him, and he was supposed to table him, you know, the Randy table drop. So I was gonna push him back, Randy’s gonna be there, and I was gonna push him. Instead, it was like so when Randy does it, walks over to me. I was like, Oh, this is the coolest thing ever, dude.
"And it was cool because obviously I was getting stoned in the back, so that’s what he’s alluding to. I smelled like a big reefer, but he’s just so awesome. And then I was in the back that night doing my interview, I think maybe with Jackie, and he stopped and crashed my interview and put his arm around me and was like, Man, I’m proud of you, man.
It remained Jelly Roll's only wrestling match in WWE
"A lot of the celebrities have come here, gave the big rub on camera right then too. And I would have never guessed that that was going to us being able to wrestle together.”
Randy Orton is presently active on Friday Night SmackDown, and he is maintaining his main event status in the promotion. Rumors have it that he would challenge Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 42. We can expect the Legend to continue wrestling for at least another decade.
