Randy Orton buried 36-year-old star recently, says former WWE manager (Exclusive)

Randy Orton squared off against a 36-year-old star at WWE WrestleMania 41. The Viper took on TNA World Champion Joe Hendry on The Grandest Stage of Them All. The match lasted almost three minutes as Orton took out Hendry with an RKO.

The match has since received mixed opinions on the internet. Some fans say Hendry making it to WrestleMania against a veteran like Randy Orton was an achievement in itself. Others, like Dutch Mantell, do not share the same opinion.

During a recent episode of BroDown on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge, the former WWE manager claimed Orton's treatment of Hendry at 'Mania screamed nothing but burial.

​

"He looked worse, who was the guy that opened up the show tonight? What was his name? He was in the tag team. Whatever. Well, he was down in NXT, right? But he put up a better showing than what Hendry did and Hendry went out there with Randy Orton. You knew he wasn't going to win and he got 3 minutes."

He continued:

​

"I don't even think he got one spot. And then Orton came back and just buried him a little more and then hit his pose. That didn't do TNA any favors, even though they thought they did. But they did put their, you know, symbol of the TNA." [From 38:30 onwards]

Despite the complaints, Joe Hendry had nothing but positive things to say about his WrestleMania experience. Fans can check out some of the comments from the TNA World Champion here.
