Randy Orton’s Most Despicable Moments in WWE

#4. Orton Punted John Cena’s Father in the Head

The worst part of Randy Orton’s run of terror in the late 2000s is that he grew more dangerous with each passing year. In 2005, he was burning the Deadman in a casket. By 2007, he was terrorizing and physically tormenting a middle-aged businessman just because he was John Cena’s father.

John Cena Sr. was casually sitting in the front row watching a match between his son and Booker T. Things took a turn for the worse when Orton interfered and attacked Cena. Although it appeared as if the Viper would punt the Champ in the skull, he quickly turned his attention to the front row.

The unhinged Viper pulled Cena’s father over the barricade and nearly kicked his skull off his body. It looked brutal and left fans appalled. Getting physical with a non-athlete is already deplorable, but nearly concussing them is a heinous crime.
