Randy Orton Talks About Being The Top Heel and John Cena’s Injury

Randy Orton recently spoke to DetroitNews.com about getting another chance at being the top heel in the company. Orton who has obviously had his troubles in the past won Money In The Bank earlier this year and then cashed in on Daniel Bryan to become WWE Champion at Summerslam. It seems that Randy Orton is getting another shot at being the top guy and below he mentions how it feels to get another chance.

“It feels really good,” says Orton, on the phone Monday from Toronto before going live on “Monday Night Raw” that night. “I’m glad I can get another shot. Not to harp on the past or anything, but I’ve made a few bad decisions here and there, and this is my chance to prove not only to the fans but to the company that I can carry the ball and represent the company.”

Randy Orton also commented on how John Cena’s injury presented the perfect opportunity to be on top again.

“I’m not saying that’s the sole reason, but it doesn’t hurt,” says Orton, referring to the sidelining of John Cena, who recently underwent surgery on his tricep and is out for four to six months. “They needed somebody, and they looked around and they go, ‘There’s our guy!’ It’s not like I said, ‘Hey guys, I got an idea. Help out.’ ”
