Biggest Fan: John Rohner "He was called the Legend Killer. He was an icon."
As a third-generation superstar, professional wrestling is quite literally in Randy Orton's blood. The son of "Cowboy" Bob Orton, himself #87 on this list, Randy was destined for great things in World Wrestling Entertainment upon his debut in the year 2000. Randy's ascension to dominance was swift indeed. At age 24, he became the youngest wrestler ever to hold the WWE's World Heavyweight Championship, a title he recaptured just last month and currently holds.Nicknamed "The Legend Killer" for his proclivity for beating up retired, much older wrestlers, Orton's list of WWE accomplishments is nearly unparalleled. A six-time holder of the WWF/WWE Championship, only nine men have held that title for more total days than Randy Orton.
Clearly, this superstar's story is one that is still being written, and a decade from now the name Randy Orton could rank much higher, perhaps near the top of this list. But even if his career ended today, the latest member of the Orton wrestling dynasty is clearly a superstar in the sport.
