10 Creative Ways WWE Can Survive Without John Cena & Randy Orton

9. Book Kevin Owens As Randy Orton's Attacker

WWE announcers played up an idea that Bray Wyatt and the Wyatt Family injured Randy Orton. However, in having Kevin Owens around, there's actually a much better person to have filling that plot hole: Kevin Owens. It's as simple as having Kevin Owens walk out with a microphone and just flatly state that he and Randy had a fight at a hotel and that the result was that he broke Orton's shoulder. Kevin Owens being a bully who beat up Randy Orton would be the kind of moment that would allow Owens' skill as a great promo to shine. Giving Owens three months to go into business on Randy would be great. Owens using the RKO. Owens using the punt. Owens making all of Orton's traemark gestures. All money. Randy Orton vs. Kevin Owens at Wrestlemania? That's a solid idea, right?
