WWE is gearing up for The Road to WrestleMania 41, which starts at Royal Rumble. Fans may witness a long-awaited return, which will result in must-see content.
WWE Royal Rumble will emanate from Indianapolis on February 1, 2025, and will officially start building matches towards The Grandest Stage of Them All. For now, the company has announced a Ladder Match between Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens for the title at Rumble. However, fans may witness a huge return during the bout.
Randy Orton, who has been out with a storyline injury since suffering a brutal Piledriver from Kevin Owens, could make a comeback at the premium live event. The Viper has not appeared on television after the November 9 edition of SmackDown. Considering the rivalry over the Undisputed WWE Championship heavily involves the injury suffered by the legend, his return during or after the much-awaited title match is something that could be in the plans.
A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.
If The Prizefighter loses the match, he could try a repeat of what he did at Saturday Night's Main Event and assault The American Nightmare. This time, however, Randy Orton could return and make the save. This could rekindle the rivalry between Orton and Owens, potentially leading to a WrestleMania 41 clash.
While the monumental return from the 20-champion in WWE would be perfect to conclude the ongoing feud, it is just speculation and nowhere near confirmed for now.
What could Randy Orton do if he returns before WWE Royal Rumble 2025?
While Royal Rumble 2025 will be the ideal stage on which to book The Apex Predator's return, it is still over a month away, so his comeback could also materialize before the premium live event.
In case Randy Orton returns before Rumble, he could continue his clash with Kevin Owens and potentially also have a heated interaction with Cody Rhodes. This could lead to the upcoming Ladder Match turning into a Triple Threat for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
It is safe to say the WWE legend's return could change the landscape of Titanland. Fans will have to wait to witness what Triple H has in store for the much-awaited comeback of his former Evolution stablemate.
