Recently, American rapper Soulja Boy called WWE 'fake', and Randy Orton wasn't one to let this one slide by. The Viper took to Twitter to launch a tirade against the rapper. Orton made it clear that WWE is similar to a movie, except that wrestlers are actors who perform stunts without using padding, and don't complain about the injuries they sustain.

What’s a “Soulja boy”? 🧐 Well, whatever it is ... Randy is not happy with it. #watchmeyuuuuuu
Yowie wowie! that’s your dance!? 🙀 I was doing that to mock Asuka. (a bad ass champ. FYI) .... But... I mean hey, lemme know if u need help choreographing your next video... I also throw temper tantrums in pigtails if u wanna use that too. 👍🏻😉 https://t.co/FBY9DYpPQC
The former WWE Champion then claimed that Bad Bunny would easily beat up Soulja Boy, as the former has seen the business and respects it. Orton finished off his rant by calling out the rapper and daring him to come to WWE and call it 'fake' to his face. Several WWE Superstars and wrestlers from other companies took exception to Soulja Boy's comments as well.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
