It seems that there’s still some bad blood brewing between “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton, as the former recently took a shot at Orton on Twitter.

Randy Orton continued the mind games earlier today with yet another mysterious post on Twitter. Following up on his previous video of a snake, “The Legend Killer” once again featured a snake, but this time it was just a black and white photo with a weird caption.

Replying to this post, Bray Wyatt shared a GIF of Jean Claude Van Damme punching a snake. This was a scene from the hit movie Hard Target (1993).

Clearly taking a shot at Orton, we don’t know what Wyatt is hinting at. Could we be seeing a rekindling of the major feud between the two back in 2017?

As part of the Wyatt family, Randy Orton did well to rise up to Wyatt’s trust link. However, after a falling out, the two were set to have a huge fight at WrestleMania.

Needless to say, the outcome was extremely disappointing and the match fell short of a lot of checkpoints. It left fans wanting.

Randy Orton is open to fighting “The Fiend” in the future

Randy Orton has not disregarded the idea of fighting Bray Wyatt in the future. He claimed that Wyatt was not the type of wrestler he was comfortable working with and hence did not entertain the idea much.

Although, in an interview with Sportskeeda, he did mention that he would be open to the fighting “The Fiend”.

“I’m going to wrestle until I’m 48, 47, whatever, into my late 40s, a long time,” Orton continued. “I’ll cross paths with The Fiend at some point and hopefully, we’ll put on a good show and tell a great story.

“The story’s there because, I think it was 2017, maybe 2016 that I was actually in the Wyatt Family. I got to wrestle Bray at WrestleMania. Beat him for the title. If The Fiend has a bone to pick with anybody, it will be “The Legend Killer”. It will be very interesting.”

We don’t know whether the Twitter joust was just a teaser or a prelude of what’s to come. Although, it surely will be an exciting feud to watch, should it materialize. We may soon see the two big Superstars give us the fight we wanted back in 2017, and this time it won’t disappoint.
