As the WWE Elimination Chamber PLE draws closer, fans await in anticipation as to who will end up winning the whole thing. Drew McIntyre, Randy Orton, Bobby Lashley, LA Knight, Kevin Owens, and Logan Paul would be squaring off in the men’s elimination chamber match to get a shot at Seth Rollins’ World Heavyweight Title.
But for Orton, even if he loses, he could take solace because he etches a new record, anyway. Why? Well, he will become the superstar to make the most appearances on the PPV.

Currently tied with Chris Jericho with eight appearances in the event, Randy Orton will be breaking the record with his next appearance in the PPV. However, he would surely want it to be a more memorable one, as what better than winning the whole thing on the day you break the record?

Randy Orton made his long-awaited return to WWE programming at Survivor Series: WarGames. The Viper returned to the ring after more than a year and a half away from action due to a complicated back injury.
And since his return, he has been part of a feud with Roman Reigns as he faced the undisputed champ in a fatal 4-way match with LA Knight and AJ Styles in the mix.

However, it seems less likely that Orton emerges as the winner of the elimination chamber. The reason? His feud with Solo Sikoa. The Samoan star has continuously launched vicious attacks against Orton for quite a while now. Moreover, he played a pivotal part in Orton’s loss at the aforementioned fatal 4-way. Being The Viper that he is, it is tough to imagine him not seeking vengeance against Sikao and moving to a new storyline.
Also, Solo Sikoa does not have anything planned for WrestleMania. Orton’s loss at the Elimination Chamber PLE could culminate in a storyline between the two leading to a match at the ‘Showcase of the Immortals’.

But considering the fan support that The Viper has amassed, the WWE may decide to grant him a title shot for now, and maybe Sikoa will continue to launch an attack at WrestleMania 40, costing Orton the match again. This surely would be a fun storyline for the fans. What do you think? Would Orton be able to win the whole thing? Let us know in the comments!
