After visiting the locker room, Randy felt like he would never be able to fight with these behemoths of men present in the roaster. Randy added- “I was in the locker room at a very young age and saw this huge mountains of Men.. you know joking and laughing just behemoth it was and I am back there as a little kid. From that day forward seeing all these men, I never once considered myself to be able to go toe-to-toe with them or even be on their level in any shape of form.”

Wanting to be a herpetologist

Randy Orton revealed that from a young age, he always wanted to be a herpetologist. Orton was fascinated with animals, especially with reptiles. He also revealed having a big old Burmese Python Snake as his pet when he was in high school on the show. Being a huge nerd of snakes, lizards and other reptiles, Randy thought he would end up doing something related to animals rather than work as a wrestler.

Randy Orton, also known as the Viper in WWE, revealed that one who came up with that tag name had no clue about his fascination with snakes. Failing to remember who exactly gave him the name, Randy said that the heel persona that he portrayed always resembled the way he carried around in the ring to a Viper. Thus ending up with one of the most charismatic personas in the WWE as the Viper.
