#3 WWE legend Randy Orton reveals how he 'welled up' after seeing Tommaso Ciampa

Former WWE Champion Randy Orton recently spoke to CBS Sports and discussed NXT veteran Tommaso Ciampa and his ongoing social media feud with the former NXT Champion.

While talking about how he wants to face Ciampa and the reasons behind his 'leg-slap' comments on Twitter, Orton also talked about how he got emotional on seeing Ciampa's documentary on the WWE Network.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

That man has got a little baby. Just this morning I watched his 'Black Heart' documentary on WWE Network that followed him around after his neck surgery. I'll admit, I welled up and got a little tear in my eye when he woke up from the neck surgery and his beautiful little daughter was sitting on his lap and he was touching her face and just happy to see her and his wife. That's heartwarming.

The social media beef started when Randy Orton took a jab at NXT Superstars saying that he offers a 'leg-slap' for their efforts at NXT TakeOver: In Your House, to which Ciampa replied by calling Orton's matches boring and better than Nyquil.
