Dolph Ziggler said that not just him, but a lot of WWE superstars hate Randy Orton because “he’s so damn good”. Dolph Ziggler said that on the current roster, there are only a “handful of true naturals” and Randy Orton is one of them. Ziggler added that because Randy Orton is so impressive, he calls Orton out every time he makes a mistake in the ring. “A lot of people are afraid to do that, and that’s fine, but he won’t hear the end of it from me. But good god, no one is as good as he is, and that really p***es me off,” said Dolph Ziggler.

“A lot of people hate Randy because he’s so damn good. It’s amazing. I’ll be watching Raw, and say, ‘Damnit, he does this better than anyone.’ It makes me so mad. There are only a handful of true naturals, and he is one, and I hate that,” Dolph Ziggler added.
