WWE Superstar MVP has had a tough childhood. When his parents split when he was young, MVP lived with his mother and not his police officer father.

Despite his struggles in his teenage years, MVP grew up to become a successful man. He entered the pro wrestling business in the early 2000s and made his first WWE appearance in August 2006. The 47-year-old had a successful first run in WWE, winning the United States Championship twice and the Tag Team Titles before leaving in 2010.

After spending a decade wrestling in different promotions, MVP returned to WWE last year. He is now WWE Champion Bobby Lashley's manager.

Randy Orton is a third-generation WWE Superstar. He comes from one of the most famous wrestling families. His grandfather, Bob Orton, father, "Cowboy" Bob Orton, and uncle, Barry Orton, were all wrestlers. His dad was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2015.

Although the WWE Universe knows Orton's father well, many do not know what The Viper's mother does for a living.

The 14-time World Champion's mother, Elaine Orton, works as a nurse. In an old interview with Kevin Eck, he revealed that his mom did not want him to become a pro wrestler. However, her attitude changed once her son made it on WWE TV.

"Once I got in the business and I was on TV, that's cool for any parent. I made them proud, and my mom – I think her attitude turned around. She was happy to see me doing well. She's a nurse, and her friends at work – my mom would call me and say, 'I need 10 autographed pictures.' Now she's a little superstar at work because her son's on TV. I think my mom just thinks it's cool now."

Randy Orton is now a WWE legend. He continues to entertain the WWE Universe on Monday Night RAW.
