Randy Orton returned from injury a couple of months ago at Survivor Series. Since his return, he has made his intentions clear. He wants to break the Bloodline and take away Roman Reigns' championship. The Legend Killer blames the Bloodline for his injury and is on a path of retribution.
The 14-time World Champion will be competing for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship in a Fatal Fourway match involving AJ Styles and LA Knight as the other challengers. Ahead of the match, a statistic that Orton may be aware of came to light. While The Viper has retained titles at the PLE, he has never won a championship at the Royal Rumble.

The legend Killer will have his work cut out for him, given that this is his first huge match since his return, and he has more than one opponent to keep an eye on. In addition to his opponents, Randy Orton will be on the lookout for the Bloodline, who will be using the numbers game to its advantage.

Kishan is a WWE writer at Sportskeeda Wrestling and has been associated with the division for 8.5 years. Even though he doesn't work at Sportskeeda on a full-time basis, writing about wrestling keeps his passion for the sport alive. He reports on important updates from wrestlers and rumors from trustworthy sources.
Kishan recalls the best match he witnessed when he was just 6 – the Hell in a Cell Match at Armageddon 2000. Watching the six men push each other to their limits and then some made him realize how incredible pro wrestling is.
He graduated as a Chemical Engineer a few years before he began his journey with Sportskeeda. A couple of years as a non-contracted writer for the website became a full-time opportunity that included managing the pro wrestling division.
Kishan's favorite wrestler is Triple H, as he can pull him into any storyline. In today's era, one can call him a Seth "Freakin" Rollins fan for the same reason. When he is not writing for Sportskeeda, Kishan works as a digital marketing professional.
