3. Ooey Gooey Orton

Let’s keep this one simple: Randy Orton spat up black goo during a backstage promo after talking about getting distracted by Alexa Bliss.

If you recall, Bliss distracted Orton in a match a while back when she showed up sitting on the turnbuckle and spitting up the same goo. That doesn’t make it all better, it just shows that it’s a continuation of this never-ending awful story.

The worst part? The goo-spitting didn’t save us from having to endure most of Orton’s promo. Alexa! You could have saved us by afflicting him 2-3 minutes sooner!
