Randy Orton On Knowing He's Going To Suplex City, Brock Lesnar, Idolizing Jake "The Snake" Roberts

As noted, Randy Orton spoke with WWE's Scott Stanford on the PIX11 Morning News Show in New York City this morning. Below are some highlights from the interview:

* Orton said that the reason he's never crossed paths with Lesnar (they have wrestled before, as seen in the video above) is because Lesnar "took off." Orton admitted that Lesnar was very successful in UFC, and said that he's coming back from an injury and wants to face the biggest guy in the yard. He added that he's fully aware that he's going to Suplex City, but he's feeling good and as long as he can survive 20 suplexes, he can hit one RKO and it's done.

* Sanford passed along a tweet from Paul Heyman, where he wished Orton a speedy recovery after Lesnar takes him to suplex city. Orton said that he's facing Lesnar and it would be a mistake for Heyman to step in the ring. He said that he doesn't care what Heyman says on Twitter, and Sunday's match with Lesnar is what matters.

* When asked about his favorite place to perform, he talked about wrestling in Seoul, South Korea and said that he doesn't know if he's ever seen a crowd as lively as that one.

* When asked he grew up idolizing, Orton replied his father and Jake "The Snake" Roberts.
