WWE Hall of Famer recalls Randy Orton being fined $800 for hilarious reason

Randy Orton recently appeared on the Kurt Angle Show, where he discussed his early years in WWE. It was here that Angle shared a story about when he first met Orton.

Kurt Angle recalls being on the road with a young Orton and the two were headed for a show in Florida. Unfortunately, Angle, who was driving at the time, had a poor sense of direction, and the duo ended up in Georgia.

Randy Orton got incredibly nervous, as they were late for the show. Once they reached the venue, they realized the doors were closed, and in his fear, The Viper kicked the door down, for which he was fined $800.

"I just remember travelling with you the one day when we were going to Florida and I ended up going the wrong way to Georgia. We ended up being an hour and a half late, and when we got to the arena you were so nervous about being late. The door was locked so you kicked it down and you shattered the window, and you end up having to pay $800 for it," said Kurt Angle.
