As we reported earlier, Randy Orton was involved in an incident with a fan on Monday before a Smackdown house show. The fan claims that he asked Orton for a photo while he was working out at a gym. Orton declined and got angry after the fan proceeded to take the photo after he had asked him not to.
The fan complained that Orton told him to F*** off. Orton took to twitter to respond to the complaining fan, telling him essentially not to bother him mid-workout if he wants a photo.
Lance Storm posted on his Facebook page a great response to the situation and fans that think wrestlers owe them something:

This was retweeted by Randy Orton, who seemed to agree.

Lance was also asked by a fan about people stalking wrestlers at hotels and airports, here is what he said:
Stalking is always bad. Politely approaching much better. Be aware that wrestlers are in their worst moods when at airports. https://t.co/KXXcq5MliU

Let us know what you think about the situation in the comment section below.
I agree with Lance. Look, wrestlers owe the fans a lot for their wealth, but at the same time, fans owe the wrestlers time and space to have a life. They’re human, and we owe it to them to be better people. We don’t take pictures of them while they’re not available, and we can’t force them to do something they don’t want to do. We wouldn’t want the same on our end. Instead, thank them for their time and be on your way. Period.
Oh, and to take a pic afterwards after they just told you not to, and post it online, bitching about it, it weak as fuck. Be humane. Walk away.
