Randy Orton Doesn’t Believe He’ll Ever See Anyone Break His Accolade Of ‘Youngest World Champion’

Randy Orton is confident he’ll forever be the youngest world champion in WWE history.

In 2004, Randy Orton broke an accolade that was previously held by Brock Lesnar to become the youngest WWE Champion in the company’s history. Orton was 24 when he did it, Lesnar was 25.

During an interview with Bill Apter of WrestleBinge, Orton spoke about how he doesn’t believe the talent today could break his accolade, noting that he believes he’ll hold onto that for quite some time.

“As far as someone becoming the youngest world champion and taking that from me, I don’t see that happening. Only because I think it was a very special circumstance when I became the youngest world champion. I was 24 years old and I don’t know if there is anyone young enough to make it to that yet. I think I’m going to hold that for quite some time,” he said.

Orton has been involved in a feud with the Bloodline, but thankfully has the help of Kevin Owens and Cody Rhodes by his side to battle them.
