10 Wrestlers Most Hated By Their Peers

8. Randy Orton

Like JBL, Orton has certainly cooled down over the years but at one point he was a massive headache for WWE management and deeply unpleasant to be around backstage. The cocky Orton was initially humble as he climbed up the card but, once he was chosen to be a member of Evolution, his ego started to get out of control and Orton began talking down to members of the crew and other wrestlers. Randy admitted as such in his WWE bio DVD The Evolution Of A Predator and rare behind-the-scenes footage of an under-the-influence Orton seems to back it up. Orton was particularly nasty towards new WWE divas and notoriously went after rookie diva Rochelle Loewen after Loewen didn't realise who Orton was on her first day in the company. He filled her bag full of tanning oil and lotion and would verbally abuse her when he saw her backstage. This is just one of many Orton/WWE diva stories out there. John Cena, the man with whom Orton has competed against more than anyone else, has disclosed that in his early WWE years that Orton was 'a d*ck'. There aren't many stories about Orton making the rounds these days but he still has his moments and has his enemies in WWE.
