After Randy Orton burned The Fiend at WWE TLC 2020, Alexa Bliss was presented as a more sympathetic figure. However, in the months since, Bliss has started to hold a great degree of superiority over The Viper.

It has been established that The Fiend/Bray Wyatt is coming back soon, likely in time for WrestleMania. As a result, Bliss has no reason to mourn his loss anymore. Moreover, Orton has become a frequent victim of her sadistic magical tricks, some of which have cost him major matches.

While Bliss has supernatural associations, Orton is the one simply stuck in a supernatural storyline. He doesn't have any magical abilities up his sleeve. So the equation has changed in such a way that Orton has become the more helpless figure in this angle.

WrestleMania is approximately a month away, and The Apex Predator hasn't figured out a way to evade these mind games. The tables have turned, and one can't help but root for Orton to find some kind of advantage before the return of The Fiend.

Due to Randy Orton's current situation, WWE could capitalize on his helplessness to build sympathy for him as a babyface character.
