WWE superstar Randy Orton has made it crystal clear where he stands in the LeBron James vs Michael Jordan GOAT debate.
The multiple-time world champion did not hesitate when asked about basketball’s greatest of all time, delivering a blunt verdict that left little room for interpretation.
Randy Orton picks Michael Jordan over LeBron James
Randy Orton was direct when weighing in on the NBA’s biggest debate. FadeAwayMedia on X shared the clip of Orton giving his take on LeBron James and Michael Jordan.
“I’m not a LeBron fan. If you wanna talk about LeBron-Jordan, or the GOAT, or anything and I hope my sons are watching: Michael Jordan takes the cake,” Orton said.
Orton’s answer mirrors the stance of many former players and fans who point to Jordan’s six championships and undefeated Finals record as the defining factors in the debate.
While LeBron continues to build on his longevity and statistical dominance, Orton made it clear his loyalty lies firmly with the Chicago Bulls legend.
