Can you sense it? Can you feel the tremors of anticipation rumbling as we all brace for the impending return of the WWE's Apex Predator, Randy Orton? Speculation swirls, conjectures boil over, and social media hums with the electric energy of fans tirelessly debating about the grand comeback storyline the WWE has in store for Orton. What intriguing narrative will our hero— or perhaps our villain— step into upon his return to the ring?
Before leaving the WWE last May to nurse an injury, Orton found himself potentially feuding with his former partner, Matt Riddle. In fact, leading up to Money in the Bank, many half-expected Orton to appear at the event, possibly to pick up where he left off. But, now, others believe that he could do so much more.
Orton could balance the scales in Riddle's still-ongoing strife with the Imperium, or maybe even "help" Cody Rhodes in his impending trilogy-ending skirmish against Brock Lesnar. But, there's an even better idea floating around right now. What if, just hear us out, Orton comes back and pulls off exactly what earned him his nickname, the Viper, by doing a reunion that culminates in betrayal, with Orton turning his back on allies at the last moment?
An interesting theory is for Orton to return at SummerSlam, throwing a wrench into Roman Reigns and Jey Uso's rumored championship match. You see, it was Reigns and his crew, The Bloodline, who dealt Orton a severe beatdown after a tag title unification match against The Usos, effectively sidelining him.
