#3 The suspension of Andrade
If you caught this week's episode of RAW, you may have noticed the thrilling contest between Andrade and Humberto Carillo for the United States Championship. Even though there wasn't a title change during the course of the said affair, it ended with Humberto Carillo laying the current US Champion out with a DDT on the concrete floor.

Reports would emerge soon after that Andrade has been suspended from WWE for violating WWE's wellness policy and will be suspended for a month. This is a big blow to the brand, especially if you consider that he was the predominant male champion carrying RAW considering that Brock Lesnar does not show up every week.
WWE needed a heel to step in and fill this gap and who better than the future WWE Hall of Famer- Randy Orton? Whether or not Andrade returns in the same position in a month remains to be seen, but for the time being, WWE needs a dominant heel.
Who better than The Viper to fulfill this role?
