It seems like Joaquin Buckley is a huge fan of The Viper, judging by the events of tonight's UFC show. Orton made his WWE main roster debut in mid-2002 and quickly rose through the ranks. He has done it all in the squared circle.
The Apex Predator has won multiple world titles and will most certainly headline his own WWE Hall of Fame class somewhere down the line. He currently performs on Friday Night SmackDown and is still insanely popular among fans.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
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.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
