In case you didn’t know…
Mundo began his career in the WWE after winning Tough Enough Season III. He would leave the WWE in 2011 as a 3-time Intercontinental Champion and a 5-time Tag Team Champion.
After working in various independents after leaving WWE, Mundo signed with Lucha Underground in 2014 and has been a main stay on the program since its debut on the El Ray Network. He also wrestles for Lucha Libre AAA where he holds the AAA Latin American Championship, the AAA World Cruiserweight Championship, and the AAA Mega Championship.
The heart of the matter
Mundo didn’t have a problem with Orton’s comments overall because he felt it was just the Viper’ s view. However, Mundo stated that despite understanding Orton’s stance, he still disagreed with it.
The Prince of Parkour then went on to say that the now former WWE Champion was entitled to his opinion on the topic and added that Orton’s comments helped because it gets fans talking about professional wrestling.
The conversation regarding Orton’s comments begin around the 15-minute mark:
What’s next?
Tune into the El Ray Network to see Mundo’s work in Season 3 of Lucha Underground. The show’s mid-season break comes to an end on May 31, 2017. Mundo is also one of 128 wrestlers who will be competing in 5 Star Wrestling’s upcoming tournament which will begin on June 10, 2017, in Liverpool, England.
Author’s take
Like many wrestling fans, Mundo seems to believe that fans can like the WWE’s style and the indy wrestling style without issue.
Mundo also seemed to believe that Orton was having some fun at the expense of wrestling fans and didn’t take his comments too seriously. If that’s true, then it’s easy to say that the now former WWE Champion definitely got one over on the fans a few days ago.
