— Randy Orton lost his temper during an appearance on the Televisa sports show in Mexico City this past weekend.
The program’s host was conducting an interview with Orton in English, with Spanish subtitles, and all was going well until he brought up the WWE Champion’s past history of injuries and called him fragile. While the host was simply joking, Orton took great offense to his remark.
He threw off the host’s glasses, stared him down and said in a bullying tone: “Listen, you wanna talk s**t to me on your own show here and make you look cool here. You wanna look cool? Say it to my face. Why you turning red? I’m serious. I’m serious. I’m serio… no look at me. Look at me. Look at me. Look at me! (raises voice) LOOK AT ME! Now say it again! Say it again! I dare you to say it again! CALL ME FRAGILE! I will headbutt your teeth through your skull! Do you hear me?”
The host took a few steps back and said, “That’s not polite.” Orton responded, “Say something funny again, boy. Say something funny.” He then said “I’m done” and stormed off the set.
— In an update on WWE Superstars, a new plan is in place for the creative team to have the weekly SmackDown match decided on by Thursday or Friday so they can arrange travel plans for SmackDown talent booked for Superstars for the Raw television taping. A decision was recently made to tape the weekly SmackDown match prior to Raw.
— WWE developmental wrestler Heath Miller is now going under the name Heath Slater. However, he is still listed as Sebastian Slater on the official Florida Championship Wrestling website.
