WWE is hyping the following heading into tonight’s Smackdown, and as always be sure to join WZ tonight at 8pm EST for live coverage of the show!
On John Cena rekindling his feud with Randy Orton:
Tonight, in the wake of his victory over WWE Champion John Cena in tag team action last week, 2017 Royal Rumble Winner Randy Orton will take on The Cenation Leader for the first time on SmackDown LIVE.
Having recently dispensed of estranged Wyatt Family member Luke Harper, Orton and the family’s patriarch, Bray Wyatt, are clearly zoning in on Cena’s WWE Title. It will be very interesting to see how The Champ will respond, just five days before he defends his championship inside the demonic Elimination Chamber against five other Superstars – among them, The New Face of Fear himself.
Bray Wyatt, of course, won’t be the only Superstar battling John Cena inside the Elimination Chamber this Sunday –AJ Styles, Baron Corbin, Dean Ambrose and The Miz will also enter the twisted steel structure in pursuit of the WWE Championship.
With such an explosive contest on the horizon, just about any action by any of the six Elimination Chamber participants will surely be the proverbial light to the fuse – especially when you consider the all-out chaos that overtook SmackDown LIVE’s main event between Chamber adversaries last week.
