Randy Orton vents about his last entrance theme, says video games helped him rehab his collarbone injury, reveals which wrestler ended up with an entrance theme that was pegged for him

Randy Orton discussed video games and entrance music in an interview with GameDaily.com. "Any movement I could do with my left arm for my collarbone was great," Orton said of playing Nintendo Wii. "First I thought I wasn't good enough, because I couldn't lift the controller, but eventually it got to a point where that stuff's really helpful.'
Orton also sounded off on his last entrance theme. "I wish we could pick our theme music," he said. "For the longest time, I had the Burning My Light or whatever the entrance music was that started with 'Hey, nothing you can say,' and I hated that shit for all four years. I hated it from the first day I heard it. They even tried to tweak it a bit and I still hated it." To read the full interview, visit GameDaily.com.
I told Vince (McMahon) and Kevin Dunn, the producer, that I hated my music, so they said they'd get me something new, but it was four years. Finally, I gave them a CD and said that I wanted this music, so they bought the song and they played it for two weeks until Vince said it didn't fit my character. The following week, CM Punk debuted and they gave him my music."
Powell's POV: This story meshes with an item I posted months ago regarding Orton's hatred of his old entrance theme and his attempts to have it changed. I'm with Orton on this one. The last entrance song he had was terrible. Now if only he could talk them in to changing that tired Raw theme song.
