Malakai Black believes Randy Orton is one of the best ever.
The AEW star and current reigning Trios Champion spoke about the Viper during a recent interview on Bobby Fish’s Undisputed podcast. As Black recalls working with Orton back in his WWE days he praises his detailed work and even calls him a “step above a ring general” inside the ring.
Me and obviously Randy get into it and obviously, Randy being the most, the greatest… I cannot express how it is to be in there with Randy Orton who is just — he is a step above being a ring general. He just knows everything and the slightest body movement and every body — it’s insane how crazy good Randy is.
Black then transitions into a story about Orton taking his Black Mass finisher during a house show match they had and the hilarious response he shouted after taking it.
So it’s time to come for the heel kick and you know, I hit him with it and as I hit him with it, he goes, ‘Oh brother, that’s amazing’ and he falls down. It’s one of my favorite stories.
Elsewhere in the interview, Black spoke about opening up his own gym and training individuals in Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. You can read about that here.
