Randy Orton doesn’t have any shortage of rivals in WWE, having wrestled in the company for nearly two decades. In fact, he entered the WWE arena and made multiple fresh enemies every week. As the news of his WWE return after a year and a half gets confirmed, an old rival of his, John Cena gave a shoutout to Orton.

John Cena recently took to X and posted an old video clip where he traded blows with Randy Orton. Not so surprisingly, the eternal babyface Cena recalled his rivalry against the ‘Apex Predator’ in good faith.

Cena posted the video with the caption, “Cannot celebrate this day without being thankful for all the people who helped and grew along the way. Truly thankful for my time in OVW and @RandyOrton during those years. Take a look back at our final match in OVW! Happy Thanksgiving! @tiktok_us @WWE.” Cena’s special Thanksgiving wish for The Viper saw him reminiscing about his days when both wrestlers competed at Ohio Valley Wrestling.

John Cena and Randy Orton continued their rivalry further in WWE and grew as its top-rated superstars.
