The one-half of the WWE RAW Tag-Team Champions Randy Orton recently gave a timeline about his retirment down the road. But it seems that is not coming anytime soon. He spoke about his future at the company and when he intends to hang up his boots.
Randy Orton is not leaving WWE
Orton had made his debut back in April 2002. His run with WWE has spanned with 20 years during which he won 14 World Championships, two Royal Rumble matches, and a Money in the Bank contract. He currently forms one half of the RAW Tag Team Championship RK-Bro with Riddle. ‘The Viper’ joined in for a special interview on WWE’s The Bump in honor of him week.
During the show, he spoke about when he plans to retire from the business. The third-generation star made it clear that he is a ‘WWE guy’ and will be in the business well into his 50s. Here is what he said:
“I think I’m going to be a WWE guy for the rest of my life. I’ve got a contract coming up in a couple of years, but I plan on not untying my boots for the last time until I’m well into my 50s. How could you stop?” Orton said. “When my neck, or my back, or my knee or my shoulder are gonna say, you’ve got to stop. No more for you young man. I don’t know when that is. So it’s funny, but I would love for it to play out to where say on my 50th birthday.”
Randy Orton was part of a star studded eight-man tag team matchup in the main event of RAW. RK-Bro teamed up with Ezekiel and Cody Rhodes to take on Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens and The Usos. ‘The Viper’ hit series of RKOs to his opponents before securing the win via pinfall. RK-Bro are set to lock horns with The Usos in the Tag Team Title Unification Match at WrestleMania Backlash.
