Randy Orton might be a ‘Viper’ inside the ring, but he sure is a charmer, off the ring. One of the latest additions to the WWE Raw Roster, Mansoor recently shared how much of a help the Orton has been.

Mansoor, the Saudi Arabian made his television debut on the 6th of February in 2019, in an episode of NXT. He rose to fame after winning a 51-man battle royal at Super ShowDown in his hometown.

Mansoor then made a series of live appearances. He then featured in 2019 Crown Jewel, Super ShowDown 2020, before becoming a regular on WWE 205 Live.

He was recently roped in by the WWE RAW Roster; a huge step-up in his professional wrestling career. And right away, Mansoor found himself inside the ring against Sheamus.

Unfortunately he lost the match via. disqualification.

Mansoor recently opened up in an interview with Rick Ucchino about how helpful WWE superstar Orton has been since he made his WWE debut. He explained how approachable the Apex Predator was despite achieving so much in the WWE.

Mansoor was quoted as saying:

“Someone who has been really, really generous to me has been Randy Orton. He’s someone who… it’s very intimidating to go up to a guy like Randy Orton who has done so much and accomplished so much in WWE. And he’s just so incredibly approachable and kind and always offers honest feedback. Most of the locker room has been really amazing about that, you know? After my matches or after anything, I’ll go to the back and anybody who is watching the monitor, I’ll always ask them how I did and, you know, and Randy’s been great for that.” [via RingSidenews]

Mansoor’s loss via. disqualification ended his 49-match win streak

Mansoor who took on Sheamus on his RAW debut, lost the match via. disqualification. He was DQed as Humberto Carrillo, whom Sheamus has been targeting of late, entered the ring to have a piece of the Celtic Warrior.

It put an end to one of the craziest modern day WWE win streaks – 49 wins.

Mansoor hadn’t lost a match since 2019, and he revealed after the match that he was quite disappointed to have got his win streak snapped.

He then claimed that he was a target of a lot of wrestlers during his WWE 205 days, as almost everyone sought to end his win streak, which was gathering momentum back then.
