In the electrifying world of WWE, surprises are aplenty, but perhaps none more so than the return of a legendary figure like Randy Orton. Wrestling aficionados were treated to a recent video hinting at The Viper's resurgence at the WWE Performance Center. The buzz surrounding his potential comeback has ignited the wrestling universe.
It's been a substantial hiatus since Randy Orton last graced a WWE ring, and during that time, the landscape of the wrestling juggernaut has undergone significant transformation. It has been over 500+ days with Randy Orton on hiatus. So, we can expect his return soon. The burning question on every fan's mind is what the future holds for The Viper.
So, here are some things Randy Orton might do after his rumored return.
Interference at Fastlane 2023: A Grand Return Strategy?
One of the most tantalizing possibilities is Orton's potential involvement in the highly anticipated showdown between Seth Rollins and Shinsuke Nakamura, speculated to take place at Fastlane 2023. Nakamura, often heralded as The King of Strong Style, is on the verge of selecting a stipulation for his imminent world title rematch against The Visionary, Seth Rollins. And we can see him interfering between the two men and might see a new contendor for the WWE Heavyweight Champion.
The Rekindling of Old Alliances: The Authority Returns?
The WWE Universe knows all too well that in the world of professional wrestling, alliances can be fickle. It's worth noting that Randy Orton and Seth Rollins were once on the same side as part of The Authority, a faction that brought both chaos and order to the WWE. This history could potentially play a pivotal role in Orton's return storyline.
WrestleMania 31 will forever be etched in WWE history, largely due to an iconic encounter between Randy Orton and Seth Rollins. Their fierce clash left an indelible mark on fans' memories. As Orton contemplates his return, memories of this epic showdown could fuel his desire to restore order in the turbulent waters of WWE.
As the dust settles and Randy Orton contemplates his comeback, the WWE Universe eagerly awaits his next move. Could he align with Seth Rollins, rekindling the flame of The Authority, or will a completely new chapter unfold? One thing is certain: with The Viper's return on the horizon, WWE's landscape is bound to undergo a seismic shift.
Bringing The Bloodline down
Orton is someone all the rivals should look out for. Orton last appeared on WWE television on the May 2022 episode of SmackDown, when he allied with Matt Riddle to fight the Usos in a Championship Unification match. Following being victorious, The Bloodline savagely assaulted Orton, marking the Viper's final televised appearance to date. So, WWE could bring in Orton aligning him against The Bloodline as a new face who stand against the evil. But with Orton being The Viper, anything can happen at any time.
In the world of professional wrestling, one can never predict the path of a legend like Randy Orton. With an illustrious career behind him and countless surprises still in store, The Viper's resurgence promises to be nothing short of electrifying. Wrestling fans, fasten your seatbelts – a game-changing twist awaits in the squared circle.
