However, this latest report confirms that the 14-time world champion will return sooner than later.
WrestleVotes disclosed, “Randy’s name, I’ve started to hear a little bit over the last couple of weeks. He’s getting close. He’d like to show up at WrestleMania.”
Therefore, fans of the Apex Predator could finally witness their superstar kicking it in the WWE again.
Randy Orton previously missed WrestleMania 32 in Dallas, due to a shoulder injury. This news had dejected fans. However, Orton suffered the most from this. According to WrestleVotes, “Missing WrestleMania 32 in Dallas through injury killed him. So I think if he’s going to return, let’s say the night after, he’d rather just show up in some form at the stadium.”
‘The Legend Killer’ is gearing up to return, according to reports
Insiders speculated Orton would initially return to RAW, after WrestleMania. But the ‘Legend killer’ is adamant about making his presence felt at the biggest event. Fans are speculating that he could start a rivalry against the 2023 Royal Rumble winner, Cody Rhodes. That is if Rhodes defeats Roman Reigns and takes the crown for himself.
