This WWE Hall of Famer has called out the company for not utilizing Randy Orton to his maximum potential.
Speaking on the Double Coverage podcast in a new interview, Ric Flair praised former Evolution member Randy Orton as the “best male worker in the company” at the moment before expressing his disappointment over Orton’s lackluster booking.
“Randy Orton, I mean, he’s third generation,” Flair said. Randy is the best male worker in the company right now. They don’t utilize him the way I would if I was booker, but I’m not. So, he can still work his ass off. But, he’s making a lot of money. He’s doing good. He’s happy. And that’s all that matters.” [H/T: WrestlingNews.co]
Ric Flair picks Orton as a member of his modern-day Four Horsemen
WrestleZone spoke with Flair via CasinoBeats and was asked who he would want in a faction if he could manage a modern-day Four Horsemen. The Nature Boy picked Randy Orton, Roman Reigns, and Dolph Ziggler (Nic Nemeth), while heaping high praise on his final pick, Drew McIntyre.
“I would manage Randy Orton, Roman Reigns, Dolph Ziggler, and Drew McIntyre,” Ric Flair said. “I think Drew has just done a fabulous job. He looks a million dollars. He is a student of the game. He really loves wrestling, and he suffered a setback but has come back stronger than ever. So that alone makes me very proud of him.”
