Talking about the health update of Randy Orton, WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle also offered an update. During his podcast, he revealed that Orton is “doing good,” having recovered from his back surgery, and The Viper’s return to the ring seems inevitable. Additionally, being a 20-time champion, WWE might just have more plans for the Apex Predator.
It has also been said that WWE may defer his return until SummerSlam 2023. Leading to this, The Apex Predator could return to the Summer Slam to confront his former nemesis, Brock Lesnar, after the latter’s rumoured match against Cody Rhodes. The Viper could assist Rhodes in defeating Brock Lesnar, in their rumoured SummerSlam match in retaliation for what The Beast did to him seven years ago.
