Earlier this week WWE star Randy Orton was involved in an altercation with a man named Anthony Martin at a gym in Arkansas. The man approached Randy Orton while Orton was wearing headphones, and when he asked to take a photo with Orton, the former WWE World Champion told him he couldn’t hear him, and they went their separate ways. Martin later took a photo of Orton from across the gym, and when Orton confronted him the situation escalated from there.
The altercation has been a hot topic within the wrestling community as of late, as Randy’s peers have been standing up for him, noting that Anthony Martin picked an inconvenient time to approach Orton. Sean Waltman recently spoke out about the situation on his 1,2,360 show, and he held nothing back.
“Anthony Martin, go f**k yourself! You know, I mean people have headphones on when they’re in the gym and other places for a reason – because they don’t want to f**king talk to anyone. I’m not trying to sound like a dick, but I know it’s coming off that way. But you know there’s these things called boundaries. They’re like an imaginary line and you f**king crossed it. Sorry! I know some people are thinking I’m the dick right now for saying it like that. Nobody owes anyone s**t, OK. It’s all about gratitude, and I’m so grateful. But if somebody puts that in my face and tells me they pay my bills, f**k you.”

WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels was recently asked in an interview who he would like to face in a hypothetical dream match. Michaels named Samoa Joe as his ideal opponent for a dream match, noting that they have two contrasting styles which could make for an interesting match.
Samoa Joe responded to the idea on Twitter when he posted the following:
I'll be your huckleberry. https://t.co/5Fp7RsJAFL

I’m biased because Randy is a self centered asshole.
