After making a sensational comeback at Survivor Series following 18 months of hiatus, a jacked Randy Orton again popped up with a massive reception from the crowd at SmackDown tonight. During the night Nick Aldis and Adam Pearce tried to provoke him to join forces with their respective brands.

Finally, Orton made up his mind and it’s a clear ultimatum to the Tribal Chief that The Viper is back to get him.

LA Knight might team up with Randy Orton to take down The Bloodline

Randy Orton had to put his WWE career on a halt after taking brutal bumps in his back from The Usos in May 2022.

It kept him shelved for a long time and everyone in the wrestling realm was pretty sure that The Viper couldn’t let it go easily. He will return to the lore with his eagle eyes fixed on The Roman Reigns’ family.

Things went exactly that way with Orton issuing a chilling threat to the faction on the blue brand show tonight after Nick Aldis handed him the opportunity to fire back. That said, he’s not alone in his aim to bury The Bloodline now.

When Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa came up to attack him, LA Knight made the save for Orton.

He has also been in odds with The Bloodline since Crown Jewel.

Now, it’s very likely for two Roman Reigns’ foes to make an alliance to dethrone him from the helm.
