5 Startling signs that Randy Orton IS being used at WWE Survivor Series 2018

#2 Team SmackDown lost Daniel Bryan, but will gain Randy Orton

With Daniel Bryan out of the team, Randy Orton would be the perfect replacement rather than Rey Mysterio

I may catch a bit of heat for this one, but hear me out. Daniel Bryan is, beyond the shadow of a doubt, one of the greatest professional wrestlers in the world today. However, while Bryan may be an excellent submission artist and technical mat wrestler, The Flying G.O.A.T isn't anywhere close to Randy Orton when it comes to pulling out the win out of nowhere.

Both Orton, as well as the WWE Creative Team, have embraced the "Randy Orton RKO Outta' Nowhere" meme, which has been in vogue on the internet over the past few years! While I'm not too concerned about the aforementioned meme right now, I have to note that the WWE has excellently capitalized on the meme, and Orton is now known for hitting RKOs out of any and every angle in the blink of an eye!

In a nutshell, Orton can end a match at any given moment, no matter how dazed or hurt he is. Besides, after Daniel Bryan was removed from Team SmackDown, won the WWE Championship and is now facing Universal Champion Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series; it's only logical to fill his spot by bringing in a legitimate megastar like Orton to the team...
