One of the biggest storylines heading into Royal Rumble this year is that between Randy Orton, Alexa Bliss, and 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt. Orton took the feud to the next level this past week on Monday Night RAW by interfering in the match between Alexa Bliss and Asuka and delivered an RKO to Bliss, costing her the match and the RAW Women's Championship.

The Fiend has been absent from WWE programming physically ever since Randy Orton 'burned him' in the middle of the ring at WWE TLC 2020. However, Alexa Bliss has clearly hinted at the presence of The Fiend around her, be it in her Playground segment or in the way she behaves.

The Fiend has been silent in a way so far, but Randy Orton took things a little too far by laying his hands on Alexa Bliss. The Fiend is sure to return to make Orton pay for that and that could happen this weekend at WWE Royal Rumble 2021. Randy Orton could enter the Royal Rumble, dominate the match for a while, only for the lights to go off and him disappearing from the ring with The Fiend's sadistic laugh echoing around the ThunderDome. The two can then feud on the Road to WrestleMania 37.
