Randy Orton spoke about the transition of WWE in the last few months. Vince McMahon stepped down from his role and Triple H has taken over since then. Speaking about the same in an interview, Orton gave a controversial opinion. The 14-time world champion claimed that he loves Vince for the number of opportunities he gave to prove himself as a top wrestler.

However, the Viper felt that it was time for WWE to move on from Vince. Randy felt sad about the way McMahon had to exit. The Apex Predator felt that it was important for Vince to be home for birthdays, thanksgiving, and Christmas. "Off the top of my head — and, listen, I love Vince, he gave me so many opportunities. But I think it was kind of time for him to move on," said Orton. 

"It’s unfortunate that it happened in the way that it happened. But it’s nice having people in charge of me who understand how important it is for you to be home for birthdays, and home for Thanksgiving, and home for Christmas," Randy added. He then referred to some of the toxic natures of Vince. The star wrestler narrated an incident where he highlighted the bossy nature of Vince.

Randy claimed that when he turned 35 and had a back problem, he pleaded with McMahon to allot a bit of rest. Orton claimed that McMahon was not convinced and asked him to be in the show. Orton felt that he had no option but to tire himself out until nothing was left in the tank. However, Randy said that Triple H has done a good job leading WWE.

Randy felt happy to have Vince around him for the opportunities he got. He felt Nick Khan and everyone else from TKO have been great. The star wrestler claimed it to be a different era as he felt everyone on the board understand that the wrestlers are humans at the end of the day. Randy said that the ability to extract talent from wrestlers under Triple H has been great.
