Following his WWE return Randy Orton has made it clear that he has his sights set on The Bloodline. Jey Uso went out of his way to make peace with Randy Orton on Monday Night Raw this week, and it appears that their issues are settled for now. However, everyone knows that Friday Night SmackDown is the brand that The Bloodline calls home, so it will be interesting to see how Orton goes about giving his receipts to the members of the group.
Stay tuned for more updates on this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown as they become available.
