Picking the right opponent for Orton is like playing chess with championship belts – high stakes and you gotta think a few moves ahead. The kind of stuff that can make or break a match. As we gear up for WrestleMania 40, everyone’s got theories about who Orton should tango with in the ring.

So, here are 5 WrestleMania 40 Matches WWE Should Book For Randy Orton

5. Drew McIntyre

With Drew McIntyre’s recent heel turn gaining momentum, a clash with Randy Orton could be a headline-worthy matchup leading into WrestleMania. While the two have a history, their dynamic has shifted, promising a fresh and captivating narrative. The prospect of this encounter playing out in front of a live audience adds an extra layer of excitement, allowing fans to fully savor the intensity of this anticipated rivalry.

4. Damian Priest

Despite The Judgment Day’s setback in the WarGames match, their dominance in WWE is far from waning. A formidable rival is needed, and Randy Orton could be the perfect foil. Facing Damian Priest, this matchup could be a first-time-ever spectacle, injecting novelty into WrestleMania. Such a clash would not only be a highlight for Priest but also continue the momentum of both competitors.

3. Cody Rhodes

Cody Rhodes, the man who facilitated Randy Orton’s return at Survivor Series, sparks intrigue about their shared history. Orton, the giver of Rhodes’ significant break, sets the stage for a compelling storyline. Turning Orton heel again by targeting his longtime friend could create a substantial narrative twist. While many anticipate Rhodes challenging Roman Reigns, a confrontation with Orton would be a robust backup plan.

2. Solo Sikoa

Solo Sikoa was absent from last year’s WrestleMania card, is poised for a more prominent role this time. Randy Orton emerges as a fitting opponent, linked by a natural storyline involving The Bloodline. This clash could offer Sikoa a major spotlight and a chance to prove himself against a seasoned competitor. Orton’s experience could guide Sikoa through the pressure, making it a pivotal moment for both.

1. John Cena

The epitome of WrestleMania 40 matchups would undoubtedly be John Cena facing off against Randy Orton. Their intertwined history, marked by numerous power struggles, holds an intrinsic allure. An envisioned “Legacy Match” between them would stand as a testament to their impactful careers, honoring their influence on WWE.

As the countdown to WrestleMania 40 commences, speculations run wild, eagerly anticipating Cena’s return to the grand stage. The stage is set, the potential opponents are diverse, but one thing remains certain: WrestleMania 40 is poised to be a monumental showdown etched in WWE history.
