Randy Savage vs. Randy Orton would have been a dream match

By the time Randy Orton came up to the main roster, Savage's star had fizzled away. Savage was one of the biggest Superstars in all of pro wrestling, back in the 80s. He was one of the most popular Superstars in WWE at the time, second only to Hulk Hogan. Savage's big moment came when he won the WWE title at WrestleMania 4, by defeating Ted DiBiase in the main event.

Randy Orton, on the other hand, is bound to join Savage in the WWE Hall of Fame sometime in the future. He is a 13-time World Champion and is deemed by many as one of the greatest villains to ever step foot inside the squared circle. It's been 18 years since he debuted, and Orton is still going strong. A match between Randy Orton and Randy Savage would certainly have been WrestleMania main event worthy if these two legends were active in the same era.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
