#1 Randy Orton is next in line for a shot at the WWE Championship
Randy Orton, who has not been on TV for several few weeks, made his return on SmackDown Live this week. The Viper's last appearance was at Super ShowDown where he beat Triple H. Considering Orton is a gigantic name, the company might have big plans for the thirteen-time WWE Champion at SummerSlam.

Orton teamed up with Elias and Samoa Joe to take on New Day on SmackDown Live. Before the match, The Viper had an interesting segment with The New Day members. He also claimed he would take the gold from Kofi Kingston.
Kingston had a stupendous night at Extreme Rules where he pinned Samoa Joe. The match was certainly exciting but Kingston picked up a fair victory in Philadelphia, so, Joe doesn't deserve another opportunity.
Orton made a huge statement on SmackDown Live when he pinned the WWE Champion Kofi Kingston. Orton is a classic heel and he could produce an awe-inspiring feud with Kofi Kingston who is certainly a fan favourite. The thirteen-time WWE Champion hasn't been champion for a long time but the scenario could alter at SummerSlam.
