Randy Orton Faces Assault Claim After Supposed Incident with Fan

Wicked Local Saugus reports that WWE’s Randy Orton is facing a court hearing after an alleged altercation with a fan.

According to the 15-year-old-male accuser, Orton assaulted him in the parking lot of Kowloon Restaurant on January 8.

The teenage boy told police that he took a photo of the wrestling superstar and then asked Orton if he would pose for an additional picture.

He then claims that instead of complying with the photo request, Orton spit gum at his face and called him a derogatory name.

The boy’s mother apparently responded by confronting Orton, at which point, “The Viper” remarked, “so sue me.”

Leonard Campanello of the Saugus Police Department reports that another juvenile has confirmed the story as a witness.

If charges go forward, Orton would face a count of simple assault and battery.

  1. Orton did not assault him all he did is spit gum at him that is not assault assault is when you beat the holy he’ll of someone I wish the media would get their facts right I hope orton wins cause this whole assault thing is a load of crap lol

  2. How can you assault someone by spitting gum at them…it’s stupid? since when is spitting gum at someone a criminal offence? He faces a count of simple assault & battery – my ass.

    Randy is not a criminal…and shouldn’t be treated as one over a simple misunderstanding.

  3. anytime someone exchanges a bodily fluid in that manner it can be take as asault not battery you dumb shits learn the fuckin laws

  4. Well you can say i’m biased but if i were that kid, that would be the best day of my life …wow! the Viper spat gum at me…i would cherish the gum, the alledged assault, battery & whatevethehelltheysaidhedid…..,for the rest of my life.., … lol

    Randy is a great guy and we all know it! The fact he said “so sue me” doesn’t mean he did it…..remember the saying…”the innocent fears no accusation”

    I wish i knew that kid…..men i’ll RKO his ass on a rock!!!

  5. You could not be charged with an assault if an assault didnt happen. Obviously this is concidered an assault. If some big idiot spit in my childs face, a much bigger assault would have been returned. If you dont want fans for your stunt tricks and little superman outfits, stay in your house, flex in the mirror, and do tricks off your bed. This parent is doing the right thing. Its actions like that, that turn people off. If he was a real man, he would apologize to this boy. Most of these mindless comments are probably from fans with no kids, or dead beat parents.

  6. futhermore, bodily fluids transfer diseases. There is nothing lower than spitting in someones face. If you think this is acceptable, then you really must check out your own selfworth and respect. I think this is such a shame. This young boy was probably a big fan and like most teenage kids have insecurity issues and im sure this will be a big impact on him. People need to stop defending bad behavior and make EVERYONE accountable for there actions. Especially public figures.

  7. I know I would have totally kept the gum and sold it on Ebay. That would have been hilarious. I know its considered assault ,otherwise you could just go around spitting on people. Orton saying “so Sue me”, I can def picture that.

  8. Another thing for the mindless fans who worship stuntmen who pretend to wrestle. In most states, especially Massachusetts. any attempt to project saliva, urine or feces on another person is assault since the onset of HIV, hepatitis and other communicable fatal contact diseases. This kid just wanted a photo. The useless piece of garbage who loves the money fans pay to see his circus show show, should have the minimal brains to interact with a fan without showing his subhuman IQ and lack of humanity. I hope the higher ups in the World Fake Wrestling organization suspend him and he ends up paying a civil fine to the kid for the ASSAULT. I’m a normal guy and I’d rather have a guy throw a punch than some pretend guy spit like a little fairy.

  9. Whoa. I just read this stuff. Please let this happen to me with one of my kids. I’m a bouncer, the real deal where people get shot and stabbed regularly. Please let some piece of garbage spit on my kid and I’ll end his career. There would not be enough left of him to to use him as the pussy who irons the sissy tights these morons wear.

  10. randy is no fuckin criminal and u know it!!!!!! i love randy orton 2 death!!!

  11. Hes not a criminal “HOPIE” hes an asshole. You dont treat your fans like that. Get a grip. Your probably a hopeless desperate person for any type of attention. Sad.

  12. Hopie, your a pathetic whore like alot of young mothers today. Do us all a favor and either never have kids, or give the ones you have to a loving “caring” family. Your comment allows idiots to abuse kids by there title. No kid should live with that mentality. Grow up

  13. Stfu Rocco, Randy Orton would fuck you up. He was in the marines! You act like your all tough…Tch I could even kick your ass cause your probally some loser and Randy Orton never did this because i met him at a resteraunt with my family and he ate with us for like 45 minutes. Hes a great guy.
