1.) We’ve been receiving many emails addressed to Randy via our contact form, even more than we usually receive. We realize many people probably do not read our notice above the form, but it’s there for a reason and it would save everyone a whole lot of time if you would read it. As it reads above the form, all messages are screened by me and Angela, not Randy. We do guarantee that if it requires his attention and is of importance that he will see your message. The problem here is that many of our visitors seem to be abusing our contact form by sending fan messages to Randy. What we need everyone to understand is that the contact form is not meant for such use.

2.) There have also been many of you asking for autographs and merchandise and things of that nature. Sadly, we are unable to fulfill the volume of requests we receive. We apologize but these are the facts and it’s something we would love to be able to do for everyone who asks but it’s simply not being realistic.

3.) We notice many fans misunderstand that we are not Randy, nor the fact that Randy does not run this website, or the Facebook and Twitter accounts linked to this website. Randy himself does not have a Facebook account, public or personal. The only account on Facebook that is official is his WWE Universe Fan Page which is ran by WWE. As for Twitter, Randy has his own personal Twitter which you can follow him on.

Thank you for taking the time to read through these important issues and if you have any questions please feel free to contact us.

In light of the site’s return (and new title), we’ve renovated our pages, thus making them even more pleasing to the eye. Along with those page additions we have added the much requested updated workout routine, written by Randy himself.

We also wanted to mention a few changes which have taken place around here. Starting off, we will no longer be posting Smackdown spoilers. This was a mutual decision among myself, Angela and Randy. We feel they are not necessary to have on the site, especially when there are so many others sites on the internet where you can find them. We also gave a overhaul to our post tags, so those as you can see should be much easier to navigate through. Lastly, we no longer allow comment discussion on our posts. This has been a long time coming and is only the right thing to do with how troublesome they could be. All spam aside, there were some nasty individuals who found joy from sharing their hatred and negativity with others. We apologize to those who thoroughly enjoyed our comment discussion feature, and though it may be gone for now there is no telling if it may return in the future.

For those curious about the forum, we had a last minute change of heart about doing away with it and decided to keep it. However, we’re not sure what direction we want to take it in so until that is settled, it will remain closed.

We want to thank you guys again for everything. Seriously, without your love & support over the years we wouldn’t be where we are today.

Again thank you all for all of your support, if not for all of you the site would be nothing. And since today was such a special day, we thought it would be best to finally share this photo with all of you.

Lastly, we want to thank Randy again for everything he does. We’ve said this before but without you the site wouldn’t even exist. So thank you for sharing your talent with the world and supporting our site in the process. It really means so much and makes the ride even more worth while.

We want to ask everyone not to re-upload the photo above, however we know despite our asking nicely some will, so we have tagged it heavily to try to prevent all posers out there from cloning off our tag and passing it off as a “proof” photo.

We’ve said before and we continue to say it, Randy does not have a Myspace, Facebook, Twitter or messenger screenames. He’s stated it before and so has WWE. Despite some posers out there being harder to pin as a fake it’s simple, if and when he gets a Twitter and such WWE will likely announce it themselves or Randy will. In the mean time if your talking to any “Randy Orton” on anything, be aware it is NOT HIM.

When we began the “change” sometime last week our first intentions were to upgrade the forum’s script to better secure the forum since the version we were currently using was out of date, but during the upgrading process we hit a bump in the road. The upgrade failed mid way through, messing up bits and pieces of the forum. Now I tried for 2 days to repair what the upgrading process had messed up but as it turns out I couldn’t. So after much discussion we both decided, Ang and I that maybe it was a sign that the forum needed a fresh start. So from there we decided to see how another forum script worked since we had a little experience with it once before. As it turned out, we ended up liking it and it’s features much more than the one we were using all this time. That being the popular script XMB but we are no longer using it but instead using Simple Machines, also known as SMF.

Why did we change? Well to be short, because SMF is more secure and better put together with more features we find useful which we do not have to have installed separately as we did while using XMB. It allows us more control over just about everything using the forum and functions just the same as any forum does, as XMB does. So we’re sure most of you will not have any issues with using the new script however if you do we’ll be happy to help you out.

Why doesn’t my old login work? We know many have emailed us asking why, many thinking they had done something wrong or was banned but that is not the case unless you were banned before. The answer is quite simple. The old forum got screwed up in the upgrade process and ultimately we deleted the old forum and started anew with a new forum script. For more on that read above.

Now for the million dollar question: How do I become a member?! Now we are very aware that many might not like our new process, but frankly that’s just tough turkey. We have taken the time to discuss this thoroughly and agreed this would be a little more work but ultimately worth the work in the long run if it allows us to keep and maintain a nice forum where EVERYONE is welcome. Members of all ages, without being run off because of rude members thinking they have the right when they don’t.

In order to become a member you must first go here: http://orton-forum.com
Read the post and make sure you understand the rules, we don’t want people complaining if we do not get back to you as fast as you would like or at all. READ THE ENTIRE POST. Otherwise it will just cause everyone a much bigger headache than we all need. Now after reading the post, simply do as it instructs. Copy the email and email us the prewrote form in the post and fill it out. This is to help us learn a little bit more about you and who we are letting on our forum. If you also have any questions your welcome to email either myself or Ang.

Randy,
You are one of the greatest wrestlers I’ve had the pleasure of watching week after week for almost 10 years now. I can’t really explain in a short little blurb like this of my admiration for you in and outside of the ring. In the ring you’re this star, that shines as soon as you step foot into that squared circle. As Bret Hart said recently you’re the best there is right now, and not only coming from him is that a huge compliment but I truly believe that. You have come a long way from where you began and unlike some you haven’t failed at earning the respect you need in this business nor the ability to show your true potential, which I believe we are only now finally beginning to see. It has been one of my few joys in my life to watch you every Monday night, and to this day I still get the same excitement when I think about getting to watch you in the ring. I know it’s part of the wrestling fan in me but it’s also the part of me that loves what you do, and that is why I’m a fan. You’re real and true to yourself and I think that’s what makes my admiration for you grow because you never seem to try to be anything your not. You’ve made mistakes and have proven you can learn from them, which ultimately has made you a better man. So to wrap this up, which as it turns out is anything but short, haha! It’s been a freakin’ awesome ride so far and the future is looking mighty bright, so maybe we should put on our shades and enjoy the show.

Hope you have an amazing birthday with your beautiful family.
- XOXO Carol

Randy,
I figure I’ll keep this short and sweet, happy birthday Randy! I’m extremely proud to able to say I’ve been a fan practically since the day you stepped foot into a WWE ring and, to this day I still get a jolt of excitement the very second I hear your music or see you on my television. You’re an absolute joy to watch and like Carol said, you are definitely one of the best wrestlers I’ve had to pleasure of watching. I hope you have an amazing birthday, here’s to many more!

xoxo – Ang

We want to see your birthday wishes, so be sure to post them below in the comments!

I also want to say that we now have a NEW website design (obviously) along with a NEW gallery design as well. We would love to hear your opinion so feel free to leave a comment.

Gallery Link:
- Magazines/Publications > WWE Magazines > February 2010

click the banner to full the captures!

From now on RAW captures will be posted the following Tuesday. We will continue to bring you the high quality captures you can now see of last night’s RAW. By doing so it will require captures not be up as quickly as they once were. We hope everyone understands and appreciates our hard work into bringing you Randy fans better captures week-to-week.

Feel free to let us know what you think of the change.

You can expect updates when we post new photos, results, videos, news, interviews to be posted as well as rumors which if you haven’t noticed aren’t really posted on the main site to save time of the clutter when 9 times out of 10 the rumors are false.

We’re ecstatic over this monumental mark in website history because as many of you know websites are created everyday but some don’t last 6 months much less a year. So to finally hit the 5 year mark is just astounding. Ang and myself have put so much hard work, time and effort into the site and we’re so proud to have been apart of the site for as long as we have for without the friendship of Jen we would have never had the opportunity and same goes for Solina.

As you can see we’ve put up a new website design along with a matching gallery theme as well. We’ve put alot of work into the new design and we hope you guys all appreciate and like it. If you notice with each visit or page refresh a new photo will become the main photo, there are 20 in all. We’d love to hear what you guys think so feel free to leave us a comment.

On a closing note we’d like to say that we may not be able to see into the future but all we know is we’re sticking around here for as long as you guys keep coming back. Here’s to another 5 years!

We have been seeing alot of fighting, bashing wrestlers, bashing Randy and as previously mentioned off topic discussions or unnecessary comments full of what seems to be the same message over and over. We have been watching the comments very closely here lately and have strung through the bad seeds, meaning we have banned or unapproved those who have broken the post discussion rules more then once. We’ve also deleted the unnecessary comments as aforementioned above. We would appreciate if people can stay on-topic of what the post is about, remain open minded to the changes that occur within Randy’s character/WWE career, and most importantly stop bashing fellow wrestlers such as Triple H and Batista etc. We do not want or will tolerate such disrespect to these athletes. We’re not asking you not to have a different opinion but to simply share yours in a mature way without name calling and curse words.

We’re all mature here so we hope you can all respect our rules. Last but not least to those of you who show up to simply leave harsh words about Randy, and even to those who email us with just the same we ask you to stop. It’s a very unnecessary act of rudeness, because Randy will never see your email so while your emailing us please keep in mind we’re not him and none of the emails listed on this site refer back to him.

After nearly 5 years of posting videos, we no longer have the time to bring this luxury to you. It’s very time consuming to upload videos only to have many complain they either don’t know how to use the site we chose to upload the video on or that it does not work. We simply do not have the time anymore, and we’re lucky as it is that we haven’t been shut down by WWE as they have taken down many websites in the past for simply posting videos. We hope you all can understand where we are coming from and please respect our decision.

Thank you.

It’s been in the works for months now and it’s taken forever just to find the right time to throw it up, and obviously now was a better time than any. Feel free to leave your thoughts of the new look, we’d love to hear what you think.

I’ve got a good amount of things I have to catch up on here in the next week or more and because of this the updates will continue to be far and in between minus the RAW updates until I can get more time. Also because of this I will be finally be going forth with my plans to move the gallery over to the site’s server so I’m hoping to have it done within the week so we don’t have to use a temporary gallery in it’s place. Following the move of the gallery, that is once it’s complete you can expect the new Randy-Orton.com design to finally be put up.

Once the gallery is moved you can expect a massive mega post of magazine scans and houseshow candids that I’ve collected and haven’t had a chance to upload.

Again thanks for the support and patience guys!

I ask you all have patience while I try to get this figured out. Thanks!

I would appreciate everyone’s patience and support while I place less focus on the site for the immediate time being. In the mean time I’m sure Jen will continue posting RAW Video and Ang posting up the digitals even if I’m late to posting captures, also speaking of captures I will get October 13th’s captures up soon enough.

I’ll keep everyone posted.

Many are aware of our issues with comments on updates through the past few years, however with this new script we can easily ban and monitor the comments more easily. Just so everyone is aware, comments are open again but can close at any time.

We’re going to be designing a new look for the gallery as well in the future, and possibly redesigning the forum. Feel free to leave your feedback on the new look, we’d love to hear what you think.
