Randy Orton has been one of the top stars in WWE for decades now, but it’s been months since the former WWE Champion has appeared on television. Kevin Owens set his sights on Randy Orton on the November 8, 2024 episode of Friday Night SmackDown, and KO took Orton out with package piledriver.
Following the brutal attack at the hands of Kevin Owens, Randy Orton was written off TV as he was stretchered out of the arena. Fans have been waiting patiently for Orton to return, and it sounds like he could be back sooner than later.
PWInsider Elite is reporting that Randy Orton is expected to be back in the mix by next month. As of right now the plan is for Randy Orton to return ahead of WWE’s European leading into WrestleMania.
Kevin Owens has been on a rampage over the last few months as he was involved in a heated feud with with Cody Rhodes. Following KO’s loss to Cody at the Royal Rumble, Owens targeted Sami Zayn who he also hit with the package piledriver.
Sami Zayn is looking to get revenge as he and Kevin Owens are currently set to face off in an unsanctioned match at Elimination Chamber. It was recently reported that WWE has an opponent in mind for KO at WrestleMania, and you can get more details on that here.
