Randy Orton could face potential "Royal Rumble winner," says former WWE World Heavyweight Champion

14-time WWE world champion Randy Orton has shown that he still has a lot of gas left in the tank. Former World Heavyweight Champion Nic Nemeth, (fka Dolph Ziggler) recently made a bold prediction about The Viper’s future, including a 26-year-old star.

Most current and former WWE stars have had words of praise for Randy Orton's in-ring work. It has helped him carve a niche in the industry and become one of the most lethal heels in the business.

Nic Nemeth believes 26-year-old Bron Breakker has similar potential. He compared Breakker to Orton in a recent episode of the Busted Open Radio and stated that The Dog could win the Royal Rumble in a couple of years. That would allow Bron Breakker and Randy Orton to possibly main-event WrestleMania.

"What pops into my head easily is a 2025, 2026 Royal Rumble winner, main eventing WrestleMania... Him and Randy - Randy p***es me off so much 'cause he's so good and it's just in his body, I hate that stuff - the potential, 100% I see is possibly there, eventually you do need to see a different layer or two that actually pays off. And Randy, for the longest time, even when he wasn't trying and in trouble and didn't care, he was always still accidentally so in his blood that it happened whether he wanted it to or not," said the former WWE star.

Nemeth also stated that Bron Breakker was a nice guy behind the scenes. However, his backstage personality clearly does not affect his appearance in front of the camera.

Bron Breakker and Dolph Ziggler had a few matches against each other in NXT. Meanwhile, The Show Off has faced Randy Orton several times in his career. That would have surely helped him draw a comparison between the two WWE stars.

Randy Orton will face Gunther at WWE Bash in Berlin

Randy Orton and Gunther first locked horns in the final of the King of the Ring tournament in Saudi Arabia. The Ring General took the win over the veteran, but replays showed that Orton’s shoulders weren’t clearly on the mat.

The result opened the doors to a possible rematch between the two superstars. Randy Orton patiently waited for Gunther to win the World Heavyweight Championship before asking for his rematch. He made sure that the stakes would be high enough for him to benefit from a win.

The two men will now clash at the WWE Bash in Berlin Premium Live Event. The PLE will be held in Berlin, giving it the 'big-time feel' of the couple of non-US PLEs earlier this year that will allow both men to go all out with the title on the line.

Meanwhile, Bron Breakker could skip the PLE as he recently ended his rivalry with Sami Zayn. WWE could hold him back for now before unleashing him at his next rivalry soon.
