10 WWE Stars Who Had Heat With Randy Orton

Randy Orton certainly didn't like everyone in WWE

2. The Rock

At WrestleMania XX, Randy Orton found himself standing across the ring from The Great One when Evolution took on (and beat) The Rock N’ Sock Connection in a two-on-one Handicap Match. 

That was Dwayne Johnson’s last match for eight years, as he went off to conquer Hollywood. When The Rock came back to act as the WrestleMania 27 host in 2011, Orton wasn’t convinced he was back for the long haul. 

In an interview with ESPN.com, Randy blasted The Rock for appearing via satellite, claimed that Rock didn’t want to be associated with wrestling and said that Cena was 10 times the performer Rocky was. 

This, naturally, didn’t sit well with The Rock, who had a word with Vince McMahon, who had a word with Talent Relations chief John Laurinaitis, who had a word with Orton.

The Viper later acknowledged that there was heat there, but it didn’t really amount to much in the grand scheme of things.
