A Memorable Moment at WWE Backlash

Summary

– Orton expresses gratitude for the international and US fans’ enthusiasm.

Randy Orton, a respected figure in the wrestling industry, recently shared his thoughts on fans singing his theme song, marking a significant moment in his illustrious career. The trend began at WWE Backlash and has not been seen for a long time, adding new excitement to his appearances.

During an interview with Kayla Braxton, Orton revealed that it was the first time in 16 years he heard fans singing his theme song. This moment occurred in France, Lyon, and it profoundly impacted The Viper.

“Well, I’ll tell you what; over there in France, Lyon, they were singing my song. And just to show you how impactful our fans all over the world can be, for the first time in almost 16 years that I’ve had that entrance music, they began to sing my song because they heard the people in France singing my song. Just an example of how impactful the WWE universe is,” Orton shared.

Orton emphasized the unique connection with international fans, noting that they often have fewer opportunities to see WWE live events than US fans. This rarity enhances their enthusiasm and energy, which has also influenced fans in the US.

“It’s not that you love the international fans more than the US fans, but international fans get to see you a lot less often. So that’s really cool to see how they’re kind of making an impact on our fans over in the US. Now they’re kind of taking on that same kind of feel and response. It’s contagious, it really is,” Orton added.

The trend continued at the King and Queen of The Ring event, where fans once again sang his theme song, even though Orton lost to GUNTHER in the King of The Ring tournament finals. Despite the outcome, Orton expressed his happiness with the fan reactions, highlighting the energy and connection within the WWE Universe.
