Orton: We Screwed Ourselves at 'Mania

Whenever Randy Orton visits The Sun you can be sure he’s going to be honest, insightful and entertaining. And whether he is talking about his disappointing WrestleMania main event with Triple H or booting his boss in the head – Randy certainly doesn’t pull his punches in this latest exclusive interview.

The newly crowned WWE heavyweight champion also admitted he is starting to like being cheered by fans, gave his tips on future stars and revealed why the company got rid of Manu:

Q: You are definitely a perfectionist, as is Triple H who is a mentor of yours. So were you both disappointed when your main event at WrestleMania didn’t live up to the expectations of some fans?

"was a storyline where Triple H needed retribution. He needed to beat the living p*** out of me because of what I did. I handcuffed him and made him watch while I beat up his wife and then kissed her while she was unconscious. Then to top it off after I do that, I knock him out with a sledgehammer to the head. I kick his father-in-law in the skull and put him in the hospital, and do the same to his brother-in-law. I think when all that happens and then you have this match where he can’t be disqualified or he loses the title, you kind of screw yourself. We were not able to do everything that the other guys were able to do. Matt and Jeff Hardy had a hardcore no-holds-barred match. They were able to use all the bells and whistles to beat the hell out of each other. Everyone was expecting Triple H and I to do the same, but we had rules that put a fence around everything we were able to do. We weren’t able to go to the extreme. If anything hurt us, it was that."...More?
