The complete background of Randy Orton’s impending in-ring return

Randy Orton has seen and done it all in his long staggering WWE career, but still, people have been hurting over his hiatus. Now, as the veteran is only a week away from bringing back his mojo, let’s take a deeper look at the backdrop of the situation.

Randy Orton was, is, and will be a forever asset to WWE. He has very little left to add to his legacy at this point in time. The Legend Killer was last seen in action on the May 20, 2022, episode of SmackDown when he alongside Matt Riddle had to drop the Raw Tag Team Championship titles to The Usos during a Championship unification match.

Not only did he lose the converted gold but Orton also suffered a grave injury. The injury’s severe nature kept him on the fringes until now. After he had undergone back fusion surgery and a long rehabilitation period, fans started to foresee his return. The speculation ran high after Cody Rhodes made a sly hint at his ‘old friend’s return at last week’s Raw before coming up with the full-fledged revelation tonight.

After a long back and forth in the process, fans finally got their prize with Orton gearing up for butt heads against the Judgement Day monsters next week.
