#1 Randy Orton
The Viper is still in the rehabilitation phase from his shoulder injury if reports are to be believed, but rumours abound this week that he may make his return on SmackDown, to be named as Lesnar’s opponent for SummerSlam.
Although both men were introduced into WWE programming at roughly the same time after graduating from the same OVW class, it is worth noting that neither has faced off with the other in a major PPV match till now.
Like the Undertaker – Sting dream match that never quite found fruition, the Orton – Lesnar match is also of the same ilk; but it remains to be seen if the WWE will pull the trigger on it.
And we won’t have to wait long to find out.
