Randy Orton is an American wrestler signed to WWE. He is a third generation wrestler: his grandfather Bob Orton Sr., his father Bob Orton Jr. and his uncle Barry Orton were in fact professional wrestlers between the 1950s and 2000s. He also has a brother, Nathan, who had a short career in mixed martial arts.

Won the WWE Championship ten times, the World Heavyweight Championship four times, the Raw Tag Team Championship twice, with Riddle, and the Intercontinental Championship, the United States Championship, the World Tag Team Championship, with Edge, and the SmackDown Tag Team Championship, with Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper, resulting in him being the tenth in history to have completed the Grand Slam. Orton has also won the Royal Rumble twice, in 2009 and 2017, and the Money in the Bank once, in 2013.

On August 15, 2004, at SummerSlam, he became the youngest world champion in WWE history, having won the World Heavyweight Championship at age 24 years and 136 days by beating Chris Benoit. He also holds the record for the most pay-per-view appearances in the history of the federation (181).

He has been married to Samantha Speno since 2007 and on July 12, 2008, the couple had their first daughter, Alanna Marie. However, it seems that Orton has been divorced from Samantha since 2012, but neither of them publicly admitted it until July 2013. He remarried Kim Marie Kessler on November 14, 2015, with whom he had their second daughter Brooklyn Rose.

He had a tattoo on his left arm that read USMC for the US Marine Corps, which he later covered up after he received a bad conduct discharge from the service. He was sent home after serving thirty-eight days in military prison at Camp Pendleton in California.

Orton suffers from hypermobile shoulders. After being medically advised against wrestling and breaking his collarbone in a Last Man Standing match at One Night Stand against Triple H, Orton made him worse in a motorcycle accident.

On July 31, 2013, during a WWE house show in Cape Town, South Africa, Randy Orton and Big E were attacked by a fan at the end of their respective match: while Orton was celebrating his victory, a fan climbed into the ring and hit in the nether regions. The meet and greet after the show has been canceled due to safety reasons.
