5 Greatest WWE Superstars who used their real names

#4 10-Time WWE Champion Randy Orton

The Ruthless Aggression Era was WWE's way of finally attempting to move on from the infamous Attitude Era. With this dawning of a new period, there came an influx of fresh talent debuting on the main roster.

One of the major rookies that were introduced was Randy Orton. Billed as a second-generation superstar, The Viper was the son of Cowboy Bob Orton and came in with plenty of hype.

Because of his lineage, WWE allowed Randy to keep his name and go on to become the Legend Killer. He is one of the most decorated competitors of all time with 14 reigns with the top prize of the promotion.

Orton is still currently with the company as one half of the RAW Tag Team Champions with Riddle.

#3 Five-Time WWE Champion Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar is one of those rare WWE Superstars who has been able to have two phenomenal runs with the company. When he debuted in 2002, the promotion decided to allow him to keep his birth name because of his background as a former NCAA Heavyweight Champion. He parlayed this into a marvelous rookie year.

Brock Lesnar became the youngest WWE Champion of all time after beating The Rock at SummerSlam 2002. His first run was cut short early, but Lesnar made his return in 2012 and went on to new heights.

Lesnar defeated The Undertaker to end his WrestleMania undefeated streak and went on to win more gold. His success outside the company with UFC further adds to his legend.
