10 WWE Villains With Understandable Motives
10. Randy Orton - Underappreciated In His Own Time
Reeling off Randy Orton's career highlights is enough to make even the most storied veteran a tad jealous.
13x World Champion.
Intercontinental and United States Champion.
2x Tag Champion.
2x Royal Rumble winner.
Money in the Bank winner.
So, you'd think by now that he'd have earned a certain level of respect from the die-hard marks of the world.
Yet, even though he'd done all there is to do, Orton still felt that he wasn't being given enough credit from both the fans and current roster.
Finally, Orton turned his back on the lukewarm support he had garnered in his latest babyface stretch on SmackDown and relished in a darker edge to his character.
Citing his fury at being disrespected for too long by the fans and stars in the back who 'eat at the table (he) set for them', Orton set about targeting our heroes. Feuds with Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles and Kofi Kingston followed, with Orton growing more bitter by the day about being undermined throughout his 18 year service in WWE.
All he needed was a little love.
