Anonymous sources that work for the EBWF are reporting that after the finish of last week's chaotic episode of Warfare, Randy Orton stormed into the backstage area and got into a heated argument with EBWF CEO Chris Jericho. Stories are conflicting about the subject matter of the argument, but the general consensus is that Randy Orton was unsatisfied with some aspect of the closing segment of Warfare. Orton and Jericho exchanged words in front of a large portion of EBWF staff members, then the two finally took the conversation behind closed doors.

This is not the first time that Randy Orton and CEO Chris Jericho have butted heads, several arguments on Twitter and some scattered reports of disagreements at EBWF Headquarters in St. Louis, MO have arisen ever since Jericho took over for Wes Ikeda in October.

Wes Ikeda's long absence from cameras, and Chris Jericho's continued work as the new head of the company have fueled speculation that Wes' condition has deteriorated since the horrific shooting last year at the EBWF building.

With Randy at odds with the current CEO, one can only wonder how this affects his chances at becoming World Champion at Summerslam.
