WWE RAW on Netflix is perceived to become one of the biggest deals for the global juggernaut. After signing the monumental $5 Billion deal with Netflix last year, WWE’s flagship show, Monday Night RAW, will move to the streaming platform starting January 6th. The historic milestone will be celebrated with a grand WWE RAW on Netflix debut show taking place at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles.
A star-studded line-up of top WWE superstars has been announced for the show. This has stirred up the conversation about whether Randy Orton, a bonafide future WWE Hall of Famer, would be a part of the show. With his remarkable tenure and status as a WWE legend, his star power could be a great addition to RAW on Netflix debut event. So, if The Viper does show, here are the three potential bookings for Randy Orton:
3. Re-ignite feud with Kevin Owens
Randy Orton has been absent from WWE television programming since Kevin Owens laid a heinous beatdown on him on SmackDown. This came after their scheduled match at WWE Crown Jewel ended in a no-contest, with both superstars engaging in an all-out brawl.
If Randy Orton chooses RAW on Netflix as his returning grounds, a logical booking would see him go after Kevin Owens. Moreover, KO is rumoured to battle Cody Rhodes at the show, so if that happens, it gives Orton the perfect opportunity to cost him the match for the WWE title and re-ignite their heated rivalry going on for months.
2. Declare himself for the Royal Rumble
Randy Orton made it clear upon his return to WWE in 2023 that he has at least ten more years left in his wrestling career. This could see WWE’s Apex Predator aim for higher goals at the onset of a new year that Orton could lay out if he returns to WWE RAW on Netflix debut show.
Orton could make a live appearance or appear in a vignette declaring himself for the upcoming Men’s Royal Rumble match at the namesake event in February 2025. This could become Randy Orton’s chosen path to WrestleMania, leading to him winning his record-third Royal Rumble match and headlining The Show of Shows again.
1. Face-to-face with John Cena on RAW on Netflix
The rivalry between John Cena and Randy Orton is one of the greatest feuds in the history of WWE. Moreover, the 16-time WWE Champion is expected to make his return on RAW on Netflix debut show as 2025 will mark the start of his highly anticipated Retirement Tour.
So if John Cena makes his monumental return at the show, WWE could plan for Randy Orton’s comeback as well, having both legends confront each other inside the ring. The moment that will surely lead to fans erupting could be the start of the last time they feud with each other, leading to a possible match as part of John Cena’s Retirement Tour.
