"There was something missing" - Randy Orton names WWE Superstar that revitalized his career

WWE Superstar Randy Orton believes Riddle has played a big role in bringing about a renaissance in his career.

Orton and Riddle teamed up last year to form an unlikely alliance. Since joining forces, the pair have become fan-favorites and also won the RAW Tag Team Championships at SummerSlam. They lost the titles to Alpha Academy on the January 10 episode of RAW but managed to regain the gold again on March 7.

WWE's The Bump released an exclusive interview with Randy Orton to celebrate his time in WWE spanning two decades. During the interview, Orton spoke about how Riddle helped revitalize his career:

"Riddle has kind of revitalized my career, so to speak, as far as how I feel in that ring. He's unlocked the amount of fun that I can have in that ring. I think that before Riddle, no matter how you considered me as a performer, there was something missing that is there now that wasn't there before. And what exactly is it I don't know, but I know that it's a direct result of partnering with Riddle." (01:31)
