There aren't a lot of contenders if one has to name the sports entertainer of the year, but some names instantly come to mind- Randy Orton, Bayley, Jon Moxley, Adam Cole, etc. Randy Orton truly has been the star of 2020, because he has just taken his incredible natural talent and stepped it up a notch or two to become the best heel in the business.
Going into the match at WWE SummerSlam, Randy Orton was the hottest heel in the entire business but, unfortunately, a lot of the momentum was lost when he lost to Drew McIntyre.
And then, when he took the pin to put Keith Lee over, Randy Orton, the Good Samaritan, wasn't as imposing a figure as he seemed to be when he delivered a punt kick to Ric Flair. Randy Orton needed a big win and he got it in the main event of WWE RAW this week.
Will he become the WWE Champion at Clash of Champions?
