Randy Orton has been accused of trying to engineer a way out of WWE after more than 2 decades with the company.

Drew McIntyre took no prisoners when he sent WWE Champion Cody Rhodes crashing through the front of the announce table with a Claymore recently. A WWE Title match is surely in their future, but with Rhodes forced to take time off, Randy Orton has come to his old friend’s defence and targeted Drew McIntyre.

But McIntyre has claimed that Orton might be doing Rhodes’ bidding for more selfish reasons as he looks to make peace with his career coming ever closer to its end.

Drew McIntyre Happy To Oblige Randy Orton

Taking to social media, Drew McIntyre shared a video where he discussed his issues with Randy Orton and how Orton might have looked at his long-time rival John Cena’s retirement tour and thought it was time to go out in his own blaze of glory:

What I’m concerned about right now is my side quest. Once again, Randy Orton is in my business, and I don’t know why. Randy, we’ve done this dance more times than we can count. Randy, try figuring out what’s going on in your own head. Randy… you see Cena, is that it? The retirement tour?

You think to yourself, ‘I started with Cena back in OVW. His path was perfect, planned out, organized.’ But Randy, you’re self-destructive. You’re Old Yeller. You want to go out in a blaze of glory. I think you see the end coming, and you’re trying to find your way out of this industry. And I’m happy to oblige.
