10 Times WWE Stars Went Viral For Totally STUPID Reasons

10. Alexa Bliss Pins Randy Orton

There were so many reasons for this match to go viral.

Firstly, it was the continuation of a storyline where Randy Orton burned Bray Wyatt alive on pay-per-view; he covered The Fiend in gasoline and set him alight. Did anybody at WWE call the police? No, they just packed the ThunderDome away and started thinking about Raw the next day. If you look closely when they do contract signings, the stipulation of if a murder takes place, everything is fine can be seen right at the bottom...

Anyway, The Fiend's squeeze Alexa Bliss started tormenting The Viper until he agreed to a match at Fastlane. It was the first intergender match in WWE for years, but that isn't why it went viral. Orton coughing up black goo and getting struck by lightning aren't either...

It's the end of the match where The Fiend returned and Little Miss Bliss pinned the Apex Predator for the 1-2-3. Instead of going for a traditional cover, she straddled Orton and stayed in that position for a long time after the match was won.

Sure, some fans drooled over this moment, (they'd be blown away by the Attitude Era), but it was Randy's wife who sent the internet into a frenzy. Kimberly Orton tweeted: "@AlexaBliss_WWE you might’ve just f***** up little girl." As word spread that a wrestler's partner was calling out a WWE star, fans who hadn't watched Fastlane 2021 flocked to see this moment for themselves.

You'll definitely have to sift through a lot of thirst if you go back and look at what people were saying, but it's worth it to realise how this moment, that WWE probably didn't think twice about, got everybody talking about Alexa Bliss and Randy Orton again.
