Randy Orton hopes that John Cena will induct him into the WWE Hall Of Fame.
Randy Orton and John Cena's WWE careers have been connected since their days in OVW together. The pair have faced off with world championship gold on the line several times, and have a storied rivalry together inside the squared circle.
While speaking on Cody Rhodes' What Do You Wanna Talk About? Randy noted that if he could chooseanyone to induct him into the WWE Hall of Fame, it would be the sixteen time world champion.
"If I’m lucky enough to be in the Hall of Fame, I would want it to be when things are settled and over. That’s how it has to come about. As far as, gosh, I don’t even want to say because I feel like he will hear this and then feel obligated, but maybe John (Cena). There are a few reasons. Selfishly, I know he would knock it out of the park. He’s done a few inductions. William ‘Refridgerator’ Perry. I don’t really follow sports. I wasn’t aware of who that man was. Cena inducted him, and sitting there watching John for what he does, I was completely captivated. I know John can do me better justice than just about anybody because John is John. Of course, there are other candidates, but I feel John would be at the top of my list. I almost hate saying it out loud because I can’t imagine how busy that dude is with everything he’s got going on. I have a tendancy to sell myself short. Maybe he would love to do it. I don’t know that I could ask him. I almost don’t want to think about it until that time comes, if it comes."
Orton is currently scheduled to challenge Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship in Germany at WWE Bash In Berlin later this month.
Elsewhere on Cody's podcast, Randy noted that his wife has told him she will let him know when it's time to hang up his wrestling boots. You can read more about that here.
