Randy Orton’s music hits and out he comes to the ring. The fans chant “Randy” and he says for almost the entirety of his career, he has listened to the voice in his head but now he listens to their voices. Orton thanks them for singing along to his entrance music. He says he has won a lot of titles but there is one world title in particular that he loves most. And that is the World Heavyweight Championship. The reason is because that is the first world title that he won and he is the youngest in history to win it.
Orton says 10 years ago he was given the honor of unifying the two world titles that the WWE had. And at that moment, he retired the World Heavyweight Championship with his name engraved on it. One year ago, the new World Heavyweight Championship was reborn but he was on his couch recovering from spinal fusion surgery. But he knew that if by the grace of God he was able to perform once more, he would one day make sure that his name would be engraved. And on Saturday he gets that opportunity. New World Heavyweight Championship, new title, new legacy.
The fans chant “You deserve it”. Orton says he does know that he will be stepping into enemy territory in Berlin. And that he will be facing a living legend to the people in Europe. He says Gunther is a legend over there. He also knows that he will be facing a man who has his head shoved up his own ass that he doesn’t realize he will be facing Randy Orton.
He says he grew up in front of everyone, he signed his WWE contract at 19 years old. They have watched him grow up and get humbled over again and learn from his mistakes. Until eventually he had to step up behind the shadows and earn every ounce of respect that comes with his name. When Gunther stepped foot in the WWE, he was a 30 something year old egotistical prick. And that tidbit might be the one thing they have in common.
Orton says the difference between them is that he was humbled, Gunther has never been put in his place but at Bash in Berlin, that is what he intends to do. All the match had to be about was the title but Gunther wanted to make it personal. He spoke about his family, his demons and Gunther is right, he faced his share of demons. And each of them was tougher of an opponent than Gunther is and he beat them just like he will beat him. And if Gunther is curious at all as to how he will do it, he will do it by using the three most dangerous letters in sports entertainment, RKO.
He drops the microphone and Orton’s music hits.
