Randy Orton gives his thoughts on Brock Lesnar

During an interview with The Fight Club Chicago in November, Randy Orton was asked about Brock Lesnar being showcased in THQ’s WWE ’12 video game.

“I think its great. I’m a big Lesnar fan and I’ve always been. We came up together about 10 years ago now. Me and him were buds. We’ve lost touch over the years as you usually do with guys like that, but I wish him the best,” the SmackDown Superstar said.

“I know he’s had a few health issues as of late. But, hell conquer those just like he’s conquered every other obstacle that has come his way. I true l feel he’s one of the few human beings I’ve ever met that have been able too accomplish as much as he’s accomplished. He puts his mind, body and soul into it and he’s gunna get it done.”

Randy Orton Predicts Rock vs. Cena, Hypes Match With Kane

Randy Orton recently spoke to CNYKiss.com to promote his match against Kane at Sunday’s WrestleMania 28, which he caims is the fourth biggest match on the card. Here are some highlights of what Orton said about:

Not Being In A Top Match This Year: “Being a part of WrestleMania is big enough whether I’m in a title match or not or whether I’m in a main event match. WrestleMania, there’s four main event matches every year. They have four top billed matches. We might still be one of those top four. We’ll know more as we get closer to the show and they start running ads and promos and vignettes for the matches. You definitely have Rock-Cena, Punk-Jericho, Triple H-Taker, and I think we might be that fourth. You never know, Sheamus and Daniel Bryan could take that from us. It is a title match, but I think there might be a little more people out there that want to see Kane-Orton as opposed to Sheamus-Daniel Bryan. That’s just me. Sheamus has been around a couple years, Daniel Bryan has been around less. I don’t know, I don’t know, we’ll just wait and see what happens. But no matter what match I have at WrestleMania, as long as I’m healthy and I can make the show and be a part of it, that’s good enough for me. This will be my eighth WrestleMania, I believe, that’s in a row, so with the few injuries I’ve had throughout my career, especially earlier on, I haven’t missed a WrestleMania, 20 all the way through 27.”

Triple H Returning At MSG Last Week: “He doesn’t do too many live events, so I think that was special for him. I think he’s getting the ring rust off, knocking it off and getting ready for April 1 is what he’s doing there, but there will always be a place in his heart for coming and entertaining the fans, whether it’s on TV or not. It just goes to show that anything can happen at The Garden.”

Rock vs. Cena: “Don’t be fooled, this isn’t all show right here. There is some legitimate hatred between these two guys and I think it’s going to make it all the more interesting, because they get in that ring with that many people, 80,000 some odd people, who knows what’s going to happen? Now what’s going to happen when we take the gloves off?”

Who Will Win Rock vs. Cena: “Oh, John Cena. I’d love to see him win 1-2-3 fair and square in the ring, no kind of stipulations last minute, no kind of run-ins at the last minute, no big schmoz going off the air where you see ten Rock Bottoms. I want to see John Cena hit an Attitude Adjustment in the middle of the ring.”

Maryse mentions Kelly Kelly

HTR: Okay, well one more thing before you get out of here. If you would, we’re going to play a little word association. You know I’ll say something and you give the first thing that pops in your head.
Maryse: Okay, let’s go.
…..
HTR: Kelly Kelly
Maryse: Blonde
HTR: Move on Shane, we will not talk about Kelly Kelly the whole time.
Maryse: No you know it’s funny because me and Kelly would always joke around to see who has the better blonde hair, we would always be like no it’s me, no it’s me, no it’s me. We would always joke around a lot about that. It was very funny.
….
HTR: I’m a little disappointed Maryse, my girl Kelly Kelly as not on your list. Whats up with that? (Maryse listed her favorite Divas to work with)
Maryse: Oh, well you wanted my favorite and I gave it to you.
HTR: Okay, alright. I’m going to step back. Or the black belt will come out.
Maryse: Well Kelly Kelly you got to give it to her, I was really happy for her when she won the Divas Championship and she has been working for the company for six or seven years and she deserves it, she’s happy and that’s what matters.

Kelly Kelly interview from St.Petersburg times

Kelly Kelly wearing a tacky Christmas sweater covered with lights and sequined Santas anytime soon.

But she will be at Jackson’s Bistro judging the seventh annual ugly sweater contest on Friday.

Kelly Kelly, 24, grew up in Jacksonville but has called Tampa home for the past year and a half. A competitor with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) since 2006, she won her first Divas Championship this year.

Kelly Kelly, whose real name is Barbara “Barbie” Blank, upped her celebrity status this month by landing on the cover of Maxim. She’ll have a meet and greet with VIP guests at Jackson’s Christmas party, which will benefit the Children’s Home.

In an interview with tbt*, she spoke about getting into wrestling and the actual pain involved.

How did you end up on this month’s cover of Maxim?

When I got named on the Maxim Hot 100 list … they called me and said, “We want you to be on the back cover of the Christmas issue.” I was like, “Oh, that’s awesome. I’d love to.” So we’re doing the shoot and I’m like, “Who’s going to be on the cover?” They were very coy about it and said, “We don’t really know yet. We have some people in mind.” A week later, I get a phone call from Maxim and they said, “We were just kidding. You’re on the cover and the back cover.” It was really cool how they surprised me.

How did you get your ring name?



It was my first week and Vince (McMahon) asked me to come up with five names that I like. So I wrote down five names and, honestly, Kelly wasn’t one of them. Later in the day, they said, “Okay, we came up with Kelly.” (laughs) The next week I come to work and look at the script and my name had changed to Kelly Kelly. Vince thought it was cute.

Did you ever think you’d get into wrestling?

I was in my first year of college and wanted to be an anchorwoman for ESPN. I love sports and I had an athletic background. When I got the phone call from my agent who said, “The WWE called me and they are interested in you.” I was like, “Oh, my God,” because I used to watch it when I was younger. I said, “Okay, let’s try it.” They kicked my butt for a week. I was throwing up. I had bruises all over.

Is wrestling really painful?

Your body is not meant to do the things we do. The girls are brutal. We really punch each other and pull hair because we want it to look like we’re beating each other up. I feel like the girls take it to another level. A lot of times those tears on my face are real.

What will you be looking for when judging the ugly sweater contest?

I was looking online and love the ones that have the lights on them. I’m going to be looking for some with lights and some that you wouldn’t expect to see.

Have you ever worn one?

Probably when I was younger. I’m sure my mom put me in a few.

Trish Stratus mentions Kelly Kelly

TRISH: I always wished I had a Steel Cage Match, so now I can finally have that. The first thing I want to do is put me and Natalya in a Canadian Cage Match.
WWE.com: Does that mean you side with Kelly Kelly & Eve in their war against Natalya & Beth Phoenix?
TRISH: I think my M.O. is more in line with that of Beth & Natalya. Once I entered WWE, it was a conscious decision for me to not be about modeling anymore — my career focus was all about what I did in the ring. I can, however, relate to Kelly Kelly & Eve. It’s tough, coming from one industry, to try and be taken seriously in another. That’s when it all comes down to just going out and proving yourself. All those girls are capable of doing that and leaving an impact in any world they decide to rock.

Randy Orton: Not bitter over The Rock's return

Dr. Pete and Steve of SportsTownChicago.com sat down with Randy Orton to discuss the release of THQ’s WWE ’12 video game, being “over the bitterness” of The Rock returning to WWE while being excited to see him face John Cena at WrestleMania XXVIII, and more.
Brock Lesnar in WWE ’12: “I think it’s great. I’m a big Lesnar fan and I’ve always been. We came up together about 10 years ago. Me and him were buds. We’ve lost touch over the years’ as you usually do with guys like that. But I wish him the best. I know he’s had a few health issues as of late. But he’ll conquer those, just like he’s conquered every other obstacle that’s come his way. I truly feel he’s one of the few human beings I’ve ever met that have been able to accomplish as much as he’s accomplished. He puts his mind, body and soul into it and he’s gonna get it done.”
Bitterness with The Rock: “As far as The Rock and myself are concerned, you know I’d love to see that [himself vs. The Rock], are you kidding me? That’s huge.
“Right now, the WWE Universe is geared to see Rock/Cena at Wrestlemania 28. And to be honest, I’ve caught a little bit of the buzz too. We all want to see it. The crowd is ecstatic. When he comes out, there’s nothing else quite like it, it really is. Sure, I hate that the guy is back. I wish I was in his spot working with Cena at Wrestlemania 28… but yeah, I’m happy that Rock’s back. I’m over the bitterness (laughs) so to speak with him being back saying he never left and all that BS.”

Kelly Kelly is "Maxim's" latest cover girl

 

Maxim’s latest cover girl. The blonde bombshell graces the front of the magazine’s December 2011 issue, on newsstands now. (WATCH)
“It’s just been such an amazing year – being on the Maxim Hot 100 and being on the cover. I feel like they’ve really gone above and beyond for me,” the Diva told WWE.com.
While the cover shoot was intense, Kelly Kelly is sure the WWE Universe will be very pleased with the results – gorgeous photos and a revealing interview.
“It was so crazy. We were there for about 10 hours. They wanted all these different poses and had me interacting with different props, like the car. They wanted it just right with that,” she explained.
“I posed with a Camaro. It was a special edition, and there were only four made when I did it. They were like, ‘Don’t touch it with your heels! Don’t do this…’ And the owner was freaking out, watching the whole time, making sure I wasn’t scratching it or anything,” she laughed.
The Chevy made it out unscathed, thanks to hard work by not only the Diva, but everyone on set at the Maxim shoot.
“We took a lot of time doing poses, and taking time out to get the light just right and everything. It was a long day, but it was worth it. I had a lot of fun. The photographer was great. The car was great – everything!” she said.
“I feel that the final product that came out is so amazing. It’s so much more than I ever could have asked for. I am so happy with it,” Kelly Kelly smiled. “It’s just an honor to be a part of the magazine and I hope I’ll get to be on another one sometime soon!”
While the Diva wouldn’t specify if there are any other magazine cover shoots in the works just yet, she did want to let the WWE Universe she has one very important thing on her mind.
“Hopefully I’ll be getting back that Divas Championship,” Kelly Kelly said with confidence.” That’s my next goal.”
