WWE legend Randy Orton has once again been put on the sidelines for the foreseeable future. His wife, Kim Orton, appears to have accidentally shared an update on her husband's condition.

The Apex Predator hasn't been seen on TV since being taken out by The Prizefighter on the November 8 episode of SmackDown.

Owens and Orton were supposed to wrestle each other at Crown Jewel this year, but the match had to be called off after the two men engaged in a full-out brawl before the bell officially rang. The following week, the Canadian wrestler hit Legend Killer with a banned piledriver, sending him to the hospital.

WWE announced that Randy Orton has been diagnosed with cervical cord neurapraxia. While it usually takes two days to recover from such an issue, the company didn't provide any timetable for his return.

Earlier today, Kim Orton took to her Instagram handle to share a video of herself celebrating the holiday season with her family and friends.

Though Kim denied her husband wasn't behind the lens, the eagle-eyed fans caught Randy Orton hiding behind his wife in the clip. The Viper seemed to be holding up well and keeping the kayfabe alive.

When will Randy Orton return to WWE TV?

Assuming he was written off TV (in kayfabe), fans shouldn't wait much longer to see the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion back on their television screens.

Amidst his absence, Kevin Owens did the same to Cody Rhodes and put him out of commission with a banned piledriver at Saturday Night's Main Event. The Prizefighter has since been calling himself the "true WWE Champion."

With The American Nightmare out of action for an undisclosed amount of time, all eyes are on The Viper. Will he return to avenge himself and his friend? Only time will tell.
