Orton was last seen in WWE on May 20, 2022, when he teamed up with his RK-Bro teammate Matt Riddle to face The Usos for the Tag Team Championship. Unfortunately for The Viper and his partner, they lost the titles to Jimmy and Jey. Since then, Orton has been sidelined, nursing an injury.

The latest update regarding The Viper suggests that he may not be making his in-ring return soon. The 14-time world champion has seemingly not been factored into creative plans. However, he has reportedly been working out and intends to return to the ring but has not been medically cleared yet.

WWE Superstar Chad Gable reminisced about his storyline against Randy Orton

During an episode of After the Bell, WWE Superstar Chad Gable called Orton the "greatest of all time." He reminisced about the time when The Viper challenged him to a match and looked fully in character.

"Everybody puts Randy over. I've done it before, I know, he's the greatest of all time. But man, playing off of him in the ring. There was one moment specifically, I remember. It was after the spelling bee when they got the best of us. I spelled a word wrong and Randy challenged me to a match. I looked in his eyes and he was so in the moment, like in character but in the moment."

Fans are eagerly waiting for The Viper's return as he has not been seen on WWE television for over a year now. Only time will tell what the company has planned for him.
