Randy Orton has formed a new team in WWE. His teammate has now reacted to it as well.

On WWE's The Bump, Kevin Owens is not happy with The Bloodline, but he's enjoyed teaming up with Randy Orton to take them on. He said that he could not respect them, but the fact that he was teaming with Orton was a great experience for him.

He said that to have Orton as his partner was one of the best things he had experienced.

"If I'm going to team with anybody against those guys, Randy Orton's the best pick I can think of. And beyond the fact that I need somebody like Randy to be in a match against those guys, just getting to team with Randy at all, it is something so amazing to me, the chance I have to get to have him as my partner for anything.

Randy Orton and Kevin Owens are expected to respond on WWE SmackDown

Although Orton is set to face AJ Styles on this week's episode of SmackDown, he will likely also have unfinished business with the Bloodline.
