#1 Randy Orton has not been WWE Champion for a long time

When Randy Orton made his return on SmackDown Live this week, he had an exciting segment with Kofi Kingston. The Viper mentioned that the gold has not been around his waist for a long time, hence, he would like to win the WWE Title by using three most destructive letters in sports entertainment, RKO. Since Orton issued a direct warning to Kofi Kingston, he might be coming for the WWE Championship.

Orton's last WWE Title reign was two years ago when he won the WWE Title from Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 33. It was his first WWE Championship win at the Grandest Stage of Them All but the title reign didn't last long as he lost the belt to Jinder Mahal at Backlash. During his last title reign, Orton didn't have a notable momentum, however, the scenario is different this time as he pinned Triple H in his last bout at Super ShowDown.

Kofi Kingston already pinned Samoa Joe at Extreme Rules and the latter may not get a rematch. It will be the biggest challenge for Kingston in his current title reign if Orton becomes the number one contender for the WWE Championship
