There are many people who want Orton to win, like this fan who gives the reason that he shows no signs of retiring, as he is still working full time with WWE. Whereas, ‘The Prototype’ is only one more match away from retirement.
I think John Cena will want it for Randy to win it https://t.co/lOe816ihHS

Many people also suggest that John Cena will want Orton to win it, seeing their backstage friendship and long-standing rivalry.
It gotta be Randy because of his longevity, consistency, and his in ring ability, which is on par with the likes of Cena, Edge to name a few. So between Cena and Randy, it has to be Randy fo me. He is indeed the greatest superstar of this generation or any other. He's gifted.

This fan gives a lot of reasons, from longevity to consistency that Randy Orton has shown for over 2 decades on WWE TV. They also call him the greatest superstar and gifted from the beginning.

i dont think randy aint getting another world title— Roopal (@el_diablo_584) June 14, 2022
Some fans think it might be Cena as Orton’s influence and star power have dimmed and WWE might not let ‘THe Legend Killer’ be involved in the main event picture.
I’d love it to be Randy but I recon it will be Cena

Some fans are hoping it to be Orton but like this fan, they think it is going to be Cena as he is a bigger draw for WWE.
Yo Cena wins the title, he leaves for a couple months with the title. It annoys Orton that the title is gone, how can a celebrity just come to our business and take our title. Build up the feud, go mainstream. Just imagine Orton rkoing Cena during a movie interview

This fan has taken no side, but their fantasy booking is a really great storyline. Randy Orton RKOing Cena at a movie premiere, Cena returns from Hollywood to beat him, and Orton finally becomes WWE Champion.
Well @RandyOrton is injured right now and it isn’t said if he’s returning or not and @JohnCena hasn’t been on @WWE tv since his title match with @WWERomanReigns and there’s no telling when either of the two will get another title shot any time soon so there’s no telling who will
