Samantha Speno and Randy Orton Interview
Randy Orton is the superstar heavyweight Legend Killer of World Wrestling Etertainment. Standing at a daunting 6-foot-5 and weighing a mere 250 pounds, he’s slammed and smacked his way to South Korea and Finland and everywhere between.
Samantha Speno, his girlfriend, is 25 and a sleek 5-foot-6 and 120 pounds, teaches gymnastics part time. Randy’s fiancée and soulmate, she’ll walk down the aisle with him
this fall.
While arrogant in the ring, Randy says he’s basically shy. The night he met
Samantha, he’d broken his foot wrestling, and a buddy dragged him to a bar.
Randy spotted Samantha, hopped over and asked for her phone number. After
resisting, she said: “If you can memorize it, you can call me.” He did, on both
counts.
Randy graduated from Hazelwood Central High School, class of 1998. Samantha is
a Francis Howell North High School alum, class of 2000.
Their house is on country club grounds in High Ridge. It’s 10 years old and
has four decks and a hot tub and a lower-level gym. The couple moved in five
months ago.
Who did the decorating?
Randy • We kept a couple of the original colors, but Sam has to take the
credit for most things.
Samantha • My family helped me. Randy and I signed the papers on the house,
and then he went to Mexico. He came back to a completely decorated house.
Is this the lifestyle you imagined?
Randy • I’m a third-generation wrestler. My dad, my uncle and my grandpa —
Cowboy Bob, Barry O and Big Bob Orton — were all good hands. They did well in
the ring. But the money that’s in the business is so much better now. I’m lucky.
Samantha • I worked a full-time job for awhile, but with Randy’s schedule we
barely got to see each other. I stay home and take care of Randy and everything
around the house.
Whose idea were the clocks, set to different times?
Samantha • My mom (Michelle Speno) and I did that, like at an airport. One
clock is St. Louis time. The others are London, Tokyo and Sydney, Australia.
Randy • She knows if I’m sleeping or not. As a rule, before bed and no matter
what time it is, I always give Sam a call.
What does home mean?
Randy • If I need to find a happy place, like we all need to find, whether
I’m soaring on an airplane going overseas and I can’t sleep, whatever, all I’ve
got to do is think of the two of us, lying in the center on the couch
downstairs at home, watching TV together.
Samantha • We love it here.

And if everytone else cared like they say they do about randy , they would be happy for him . not telling him he’s worthless cause u “: LOVE ” him and he got married, and “BROKE” ur heart cause , it was just a crush, and saying his wife ia bitchnd his wifes a bitch is doing anything for u just making u look like an ass. GOOD LUCK RANDY & SAMANTHA

Comment by AqilahOrton on 4 April 2008:
Its not that late to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the dearest Randy (his birthday was actually on the 1st April). Needless to say I am a grand fan of you! I love you from head to toe and i love your on-screen arrogancy.. I was kinda frustrated to hear that your officially married. Nonetheless, now i can face the fact that you are meant together with your very wife. Wish you guys happy together.
And, why can’t you be more like a nice person in WWE? I wholly know that you’re not actually that flamboyant, but, please play more likeable character.. Anyway, i adore your personality. Ciao darling.
Love,
Aqilah

Comment by RANDYISBEAUTIFUL=) on 22 May 2008:
Hey! i am very disappointed in Randy! i really wanted Randy to stay single, cuz after all randy is a very appealing man, but i do understand that randy will not remain single forever, and he will EVENTUALLY get married. its a sad state of affair, and no offense randy, u have horrible, and i mean HORRIBLE taste in women, she is the most ugliest woman i have ever seen, and randy i know u can do better, wayyyy better, no offense. so, if u know whats rite for u, get a divorce, kk, thats all i have to say. i love u randy! take care =)
ur #1 biggest fan
XOXOXOX
Comment by Randy Keith Orton = Gorgeous, hot, appealing man on 22 May 2008:
Heyy,
Okay first of all Randy i am lost for words of you cause u r truly the best wrestler i have ever seen. I am not gonna lie..when i first saw u i wasn’t too fond of you, my dad has been watchin WWE for like forever and he wasn’t to fond of you but i could never tell cause if u were playing someone like Kane he would support you. As i was saying…i kinda hated you and thought u were a show off…but now i seriously regret saying and thinking of all those negative things i have ever said and thought about you Mr. Orton. So Randy, i am now fully aware that u r married. I know that u probably thought she was pretty…but randy u were probably drunk when u decided to marry her..you couldn’t even open ur eyes and think straight. Absolutely no offense Randy, i hope this does not hurt u or that Samantha in anyway…but my point: she’s ugly. But…Randy i’ve seen uglier woman, so Samantha ain’t so bad. Again i’ll say this once more no offense, but ur Randy and ur a hottie, and i love you Randy. Take Care. =)
Comment by Abby on 29 May 2008:

Comment by melllymelll on 11 June 2008:
yall need to stop hatn on samantha cuz yall just mad she is happy with ur little fantasy man.it wasnt her fault he was totaly into her.and nobody should have to stay single forever. and if it was one of u peeps marrying him u wuld be gettn hated probably worse than this so.and stop sayn she is ugly! i mean look at some of yall people, aint the best right.so stop hoping on someone u’ll never get and then hatin when they got someone, and go find u someone just like he did….have a good one, melllymelll(oh ps. u just got told by a twelve year old)

I LOOOOOOOOOOVE RANDY ORTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Comment by gbrown on 16 August 2008:
I think all you imature females making abusive comments about Samantha need some serious therapy. Maybe your attitude is why you don’t have that someone in your life. Furthermore, the appaling behavior all of you display, exibits great immaturity. So show some respect ladies. May God bless you both(Randy and Samantha) with a lifetime of love and happiness.
