Another world title (or two) for Randy Orton?
The Viper is set to challenge for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship in a four-way match at Royal Rumble later this month. He’ll walk in as a fourteen-time WWE world champion, but there’s always a chance he gets one step closer to breaking Ric Flair and John Cena’s record of sixteen world title reigns.
During a recent sit-down interview with Kayla Braxton on The Bump, Orton addressed possibly winning the big one again at this point in his career.
“It’s not something that I harp on because I’ve been so fortunate,” Orton said. “The fourteen title reigns that I’ve had, that means a lot to me. So making it fifteen, making it sixteen, of course I would love for that to happen. It doesn’t keep me up at night, dreaming of that next title shot, because I think I know that it’s in the cards. I feel healthy enough. I feel like I’ve got plenty of time left in my career to where I’m going to come back around, and I’m going to be wearing that title at least one or two more times.”
“I don’t see how it wouldn’t happen”
Recently, during a Virtual Signing, The Original Bro shared his thoughts on his partnership with The Apex Predator. Riddle also claimed that it is a guarantee that RK-Bro will reunite.
“I look at it like this, my big thing if I were to come back, I’d really like to finish the story with Randy (Orton). Unfortunately, he got hurt and the other thing too, even with Pete Dunne, it was unfortunate COVID happened. I feel like I never got to finish the story with The Broserweights. Seems like I always have unfinished business with my tag team partners.
“I would say unless one of us passes away, it’s a guarantee (that I’ll reunite with Orton). One way or another, I mean, ideally, it would probably be in the ‘E’ but I don’t see how it wouldn’t happen. There’s no way. I mean I’m gonna get to Randy one way or another,” Matt Riddle said.
