Randy Orton, the iconic WWE star with a legacy spanning decades, holds significant influence both inside and outside the wrestling ring. Such is the might of The Viper that even the higher-ups pay heed to his opinions, which once led to an untimely end to Charly Caruso’s WWE career.
Charly Caruso, known for her roles as a ring announcer, interviewer, and host in WWE, joined the company in 2016, charming wrestling enthusiasts with her charisma and talent. However, her journey took an unexpected turn in 2021, when rumors circulated about her behavior causing dissatisfaction among WWE’s top talent, including Randy Orton and Sheamus. It was reported that her consistent tardiness to taped interviews scheduled for RAW infuriated Orton and Sheamus, leading to Vince McMahon’s unhappiness and her removal from television.
Subsequently, Charly Caruso parted ways with WWE, and Kevin Patrick stepped in as her direct replacement in 2023. Caruso embraced new opportunities, joining ESPN and Outkick as a television personality.
However, amidst speculations about backstage heat, Charly Caruso opened up about her departure in April 2021. She clarified that her exit was a personal choice, as her WWE contract was nearing its end, and she decided not to renew it. Contrary to the gossip, she affirmed that she left on a positive note, with no issues or ill feelings toward anyone.
