EC3 recently discussed Randy Orton's impending WWE comeback, saying he was hopeful The Viper would return in his best physical condition.

The former WWE Champion has been inactive since May 2022. He underwent a back surgery earlier this year and is rumored to be on course for a return. Considering Orton was a fan favorite the last time we saw him on TV, viewers can expect him to retain his babyface avatar when he's finally ready to return.

On the latest episode of Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Outlaws, EC3 explained that Randy Orton might be taking good care of himself during his months-long absence. The NWA World Heavyweight Champion also mentioned that he hoped to see The Viper have a great final few years before he hung up his boots:

"He (Randy Orton) takes care of himself. The year and a half might have comfortably allowed him to heal up. I'm big into recovery and all the assets and the modalities that are possible now, from stem cells and software therapy and red lights. He's not gonna be coming back old and crusty. He's gonna come back better than ever, and then hopefully, he has a good two to three years," said EC3. [4:47 - 5:15]

WWE veteran EC3 is also a fan of Randy Orton's looks

On a previous episode of The Wrestling Outlaws earlier this year, EC3 lavished praise on Randy Orton, saying he was an athlete who led from the front. Moreover, apart from pointing out he was one of the best in-ring workers, the former WWE star added that he was in awe of The Viper's looks and termed him "gorgeous."

"He's [Randy Orton] one of the coolest dudes, dare I say, chill. He's a guy that leads by example. He's not very vocal, but he definitely leads by example, and he's, in my opinion, one of the top five workers of all time. And, dare I say, one of the top five hunks of all time. I think that the man's gorgeous," said EC3.

No matter which brands he shows up on, it's safe to say Randy Orton would quickly assert his dominance and become a force to be reckoned with.
