Randy Orton didn't think Dominik Mysterio would make it into WWE.
The Viper appeared on the Pat McAfee show recently to promote the upcoming Elimination Chamber PPV. He discussed topics such as Tom Brady calling wrestling cute, his longevity in the business and more.
During the interview, the former World Champion also revealed his thoughts on Dominik Mysterio. Randy Orton recalled his first impression of the 28-year-old when he signed with the company in 2019 and discussed how things have changed since then:
He's a piece of shit. But let's be serious [amazing talent]. When I first saw that guy, five, six years ago, I thought, 'oh, man, poor kid,' look at him now. He's got the world by the balls. He's smart. He's got a look. He went from not having a look, and I'm thinking, like, 'Man, what's this kid gonna do?' And now all of a sudden, he's, like, got more heat than anybody.
Dominik Mysterio last competed during the February 16 episode of Raw. He failed to qualify for the Elimination Chamber in a triple threat won by Je'Von Evans.
Orton, on the other hand, successfully qualified for the match. He will now compete against Evans, Cody Rhodes, LA Knight and Jey Uso for an opportunity to challenge WWE Champion Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 42.
