Randy Orton recalls a story in Mexico.
Once upon a time in Mexico, Randy Orton acquired some dynamite. What happened next is a story that only Randy can tell.
Speaking with Cody Rhodes on So, What Do You Want To Talk About? Cody mentioned stories of Randy's past, including one where dynamite blew up in a hotel.
"Were you there in Mexico?" Randy asked. "The federales were after me, Paul London, and Brian Kendrick. We jumped in a taxi. They were quarter sticks of dynamite. You can buy it down there in Tijuana. I ditched the last stick under the bus that was taking us to the venue the next day. We jumped in the taxi and we were followed the entire time by the federales. Paul London spoke a little bit of Spanish, and he was like, 'Guys, guys, the cops are following us.' He talked to the driver and he's saying, 'Take them here.' I was dying. Looking back now, he could have been really ribbing the hell out of us. We ended up making it back, and the next day, we're loading the buses up. I look under the bus, quarter stick is right there. 'Oh, save that for later.' I think that's the one that blew up in the atrium of the hotel."
WWE held a live event on July 4, 2007 in Tijuana that featured London, Kendrick, and Orton.
Elsewhere during the interview, Orton recalled auditioning for "Deadpool 2." Fans can find his full comments by clicking here.
