Will Randy Orton return for Money in the Bank in London?

Joining Orton in these swirling speculations is the enigmatic Drew McIntyre, the "Scottish Warrior." McIntyre vanished post his draft to Raw in April, allegedly due to creative and contractual disagreements. Despite hitting a creative wall recently, a dramatic heel turn for him at Money in the Bank would certainly make waves, making him a much-needed villain in Raw's roster.

If the Scot manages to ink a new deal with WWE before the end of the year, his dramatic return could revitalize the show, potentially leading into a captivating feud running up to SummerSlam.

Raw has indeed been treading troubled waters with the absence of its headline stars. The show's main event scene is clearly lacking the vitality and intensity fans associate with WWE. This presents a ripe opportunity for the potential return of Orton and McIntyre.

Orton's return offers intriguing possibilities. His previous partnership with Matt Riddle could see him return in a supporting role or as a heel antagonist in the Riddle vs. Gunther match at Money in the Bank.

Orton's popularity is undeniable, and his return will likely be met with one of the loudest reactions in recent memory. Orton might even throw his hat into the still-ongoing feud between Cody Rhodes and Brock Lesnar. Don't forget, Orton has quite the history with both stars. Rhodes, in particular, was part of his creation, The Legacy, during the earlier years of Rhodes' career. If nothing else, a potential three-way feud between Rhodes, Lesnar, and Orton, could help keep The American Nightmare busy and over with fans as Roman Reigns' own stable, The Bloodline, crumbles.

Ultimately, the Viper's return, regardless of the narrative, is a prospect that has wrestling fans around the world on the edge of their seats.

With the likes of Orton and McIntyre potentially joining Gunther, Reed, Balor, and Judgment Day in gracing the top of the card, Monday nights could soon become an unmissable spectacle for wrestling fans.
