WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray has openly spoken about his relationship with Randy Orton. Regarded as one of the greatest WWE superstars of all time, Orton has had quite the journey as a professional wrestler.<\/p>

Ray was one of the many veterans who worked with Orton during his early days in the ring. While the latter was able to impress people with his skills, his attitude outside of it was not appreciated by many.<\/p>

Bully Ray calls Randy Orton a ‘miserable prick’<\/h2>

While speaking to Busted Open Radio, Bully Ray recalled how there was a match between Dudley Boyz and the team of Orton and Batista that left those involved in the contest injured. Moreover, it soured their relationship as well.<\/p>

However, they have nothing against each other at the moment. While recalling how Randy Orton was a ‘miserable prick’, Ray said:<\/p>

“Me and Randy have squashed all of our issues, all of our problems. Neither one of us wants to speak a bad word about one another ever again. We have a nice relationship now. Hugging and kissing when we see each other. But yeah, there were times, as I said before, that he was a bad apple early in his career and that ‘miserable prick’ thing, as Hunter pointed out, kind of followed him. This is probably the least miserable we’ve ever seen Randy since he’s come back from injury.” [H\/T – WrestlingInc.<\/a>]<\/p>

That said, it is safe to say that Randy Orton has come a long way in is professional career. Despite his attitude not being appreciated by many in the industry, it is his skill that has helped him attain the status of being one of the best ever in the business.<\/p>
