You can’t have a successful career, spend several hours away from home, and also be the best ‘Elden Ring‘ player in the world, unless you’re a professional gamer, of course. But Randy Orton, who has been dedicating himself to the noble sport of professional wrestling in WWE for almost two decades (which some of us older folks still remember as ‘Pressing Catch’), wants it all. And with a stack of cash, he has achieved it.
Let someone else do the work
It is known that during his demonstration tours, Orton spends his time before and after matches playing ‘Elden Ring‘. Of course, battling enemies in the game is a lot of fun, but leveling up seemed, quite logically, boring to him. So much so that he decided to cheat and stick only to the most enjoyable experience possible from FromSoftware’s game.
As we’ve learned recently, the wrestler, tired of having to collect runes here and there, decided to open his wallet and pay $1000 to a “guy” to get infinite runes. The result? He reached level 100 immediately. According to the wrestling duo Brennan Williams and Mansoor Al-Shehail, Orton approached them after a match to talk about their mutual love for ‘Elden Ring’. And that’s when he dropped the bombshell.
“I love this game. It’s amazing. But I can’t deal with that shit, so I just paid a guy to give me a bunch of runes,” he told them. And you know, there are worse things to spend $1000 on. Yes, he cheated, but he hasn’t harmed anyone (well, in his life he has hurt a lot of people, of course). It’s not like he’s the first ‘pay to win’ we’ve seen in our lives!
