Randy Orton is getting ready for another clash against The Fiend at WrestleMania 37, and WWE's Viper recently revealed his retirement plans on Stone Cold Steve Austin's Broken Skull Sessions podcast.

Randy Orton is currently 40 years old and has been wrestling for a very long time. The 14-time WWE Champion said that he intends on wrestling for at least ten more years. However, Orton realizes that he needs to work on his physical condition to extend his career.

"I'll see pictures from five years ago where I'm like, 'I gotta get back to that kind of shape.' My wife brought it to my attention the other day, 'Back then, in 2014, when you looked like that, you thought you looked like shit.' You're never going to be happy. At 40, I want to wrestle another decade if I can. I know it's not about getting my pecs up here, like Bobby Lashley and Batista; it's about making sure my shoulder stays in.

Randy Orton is focused on career longevity, and he wants to wrestle for as long as he physically can in the WWE. Orton is proud to be a pro wrestler, and he can't think of anything else that he would like to pursue.

It's about longevity for me. I want to do this as long as I can. I don't see branching off to do this or that like a lot of guys do. This is my home and what I do. I am a professional wrestler. H/t Figthful

Randy Orton has been in the WWE since 2001, and his desire to wrestle until he is 50 could lead to several records being broken along the way.
