#2 To mislead news outlets
Trending
Today's fan tends to trust websites like Sportskeeda over WWE's official website because our team of writers tends to go beyond storyline alone and examine events behind the scenes. And hence, they decided to work news portals and convince them that Randy Orton is out of the game for a while. They knew that it would lead to a lot of speculation and convince people that it was real.
WWE is trying to peel back the fourth wall and bring up 'behind-the-scenes' details in their storyline. Is it any wonder then that this era has been dubbed the 'reality era' of WWE programming? They are doing pretty much the same thing with Becky Lynch's contract situation as well.
The only problem with this whole plan is that fans came to know that this whole angle was a work long before RAW even aired, undermining WWE's plans.
