Published 02/02/2021, 1:01 PM EST

Randy Orton found himself caught between two feuds on Monday Night Raw as he fought Edge while dealing with Alexa Bliss at the same time. ‘The Viper’ has a lot of enemies, which may be more than he can handle.

However, it looks as if he wants all the possible enemies he can find. In a recent post on Twitter, Randy Orton called out NXT Superstar Karrion Kross, inviting him to a fight.

This was in response to Kross posting a video describing his in-ring character. Kross explained the meaning behind his ‘Tick-Tock’ call and what its backstory is.

‘The Legend Killer’ could not care less and openly challenged Kross to a fight to which the former NXT Champion has not replied. Although, we may get to see an interesting feud between the two in the near future.

Karrion Kross would make the perfect opponent for Randy Orton

Randy Orton has been the sinister heel throughout his career and is living the best version of his character on Raw. His evil ways have earned him praise and have been the fuel for many storylines.

Orton is known to backstage friends and rivals alike and has no close ones. His character portrays him as one who works for himself and the good of himself over the others.

Karrion Kross works on a similar dark theme in NXT. With Scarlett, he has a unique gimmick of a ticking clock and has one of the best entrances in the company.

After Randy’s feud against Alexa Bliss and “The Fiend” we may surely see an Orton vs Kross feud which would be extremely exciting.

Randy Orton suffered a final defeat in his storyline against Edge thanks to interference from Alexa Bliss. Alexa didn’t physically interfere, but her appearance was enough to distract Randy and let Edge deliver a Spear to end the long chapter.
