With his amazing Olympic campaign in Paris, LeBron James has, according to some, taken another step towards the title of GOAT in the world of basketball. Randy Orton, WWE legend and sports fan, spoke about the duel for history between the King and Michael Jordan.

LeBron James has entered a little more into the legend of this sport following his amazing Olympic campaign.

At 39 years old, and after a long absence of 12 years in the national team, he led Team USA to a new gold medal in Paris. With 14.5 points, 8.5 assists and 7.8 rebounds on average, he did not steal his title of MVP of the competition.

Moreover, for some, seeing him at this level, at this stage of his career and facing such adversity gives him a definitive advantage in the race for GOAT status.

For comparison, at the same age, Michael Jordan was finishing his second season with the Wizards, without the playoffs, and especially without the slightest hope of representing his country on the international stage.

Finally, it will take more than that to convince WWE superstar Randy Orton.

During a show for his employer’s YouTube channel, the “Legend Killer” was asked about the notion of GOAT in high-level sport.

And when the debate between the King and MJ was mentioned, his instant reaction surprised a lot of people.

It’s hard to know why, but Randy Orton seems to have a real hatred for LeBron James, who he clearly doesn’t consider worthy of a spot in the race for the title of GOAT.

Born in 1980, he grew up watching Michael Jordan’s exploits with the Bulls, which must condition his perception.

In any case, the fans don’t understand him.
