Before facing @JohnCena in his hometown of St. Louis this Saturday at #WWEBacklash, @RandyOrton talks his favorite female rappers and why he's beloved in the hip-hop world with @billboard. billboard.com/music/rb-hip-h…

Randy Orton says it clicked for him in 09 as a bad guy. "I remember in ’09, it all kinda clicked as a bad guy. I just kind of let loose and acted a little bit more crazy. Even down to the body language and stuff. But I think what it came down to was who I was facing in the ring in ’09. I was booked really strong. I think I won the Rumble that year and main-evented WrestleMania with Triple H.I did the thing where he was handcuffed and I assaulted Stephanie [McMahon] in front of him and he was an inch away. He had to sit there and watch as I messed with her. I kicked Vince in the head. I destroyed the entire McMahon family, and looked real strong doing it." (@billboard)

WWE Legend Randy Orton Talks Final Match With John Cena, His Favorite Female Rappers & Why He’s Beloved in the Hip-Hop World billboard.com/music/rb-hip-h…

🚨| Randy Orton revealed that WWE had initially planned to change his entrance song for a major storyline or potential heel turn. However, after hearing the crowd in France sing it word for word, Orton decided to keep "Voices" as his permanent theme. FRANCE REALLY SAVED US 🙏

Randy Orton talks about his love for female rappers: “I think it’s a little bit of a lot of things. These women can fucking rap. It’s a little risqué, and I’m bumping it loud. I have a nice system in my home gym and when I’m working out, I’m playing Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi B, GloRilla, KenTheMan, [Sexyy Red], Baby Tate, Nicki Minaj, Bia. There’s a rapper from Italy and she was at the show. I didn’t meet her or anything. They just went to her and did a live shot, her name was Anna Pepe. I looked her up and she’s great. I put her on the playlist. There’s a Spanish girl. Snow Tha Product. There’s always a bad-ass bassline in the back. It’s just fun to workout to, but I like a little bit of everything, too.” (via @billboardhiphop)

Randy Orton names his Mount Rushmore of female rappers: • Cardi B • Nicki Minaj • Megan Thee Stallion • GloRilla (via @billboardhiphop)

Randy Orton says he kept pushing for Joe Hendry as his opponent at WrestleMania 41. "We put our heads together and it was actually my idea [for it to be] Joe Hendry. I kept pushing for it, and a couple of people were unsure, but I was able to talk everybody into it. I’m really glad they went with him. It was perfect." (@billboard)

I was booked really strong — I did the thing where he [Triple H] was handcuffed and I assaulted Stephanie in front of him and he was an inch away. He had to sit there and watch as I messed with her. I kicked Vince in the head. I destroyed the entire McMahon family — I think it was [a matter of] being given an opportunity in ’09 and I had a home run with it.” (via @billboardhiphop)
