Former WWE Superstar Matt Sydal/Evan Bourne recently spoke to the WrestlingINC Daily podcast. The high-flying star discussed a number of topics during the show, including working with Randy Orton during his run with WWE.
“I loved it. He and I are both from St. Louis.,” Sydal noted. “Like one of my best friend’s was one of the guys that helped him get started at the South Broadway Athletic Club way way way back in the day. Kind of his first few bumps in the ring and his first powerbomb ever was to my friend who still uses that as his claim to fame. ‘I got powerbombed by Randy Orton,’ but in fact, his dad, Cowboy Bob, was a Missouri State Athletic Commissioner, so a couple of times, when Randy was in OVW and even maybe on the main roster, he would come to these shows.”
“I really liked working with him. I always thought that there was even more potential to Randy than had been unleashed,” Sydal stated. “I think a lot of people are intimidated wrestling him. I think even like guys like The Miz were a little intimidated wrestling Randy, kind of almost afraid of him, and I didn’t really have that because he was always kind and generous with me.”
