Orton's current hiatus is down to a couple of issues, with one of them being a serious sounding injury. After initially being scheduled to return at Survivor Series, Randy's return date has continued to be pushed back. The latest of which was last night's Raw in Denver. The Apex Predator was advertised to team with Roman Reigns, John Cena and Dean Ambrose to face Seth Rollins, Bray Wyatt, Kane and The Big Show in what presumably was set up to be a dark match to help him regain some fitness. These plans were shelved pretty late in the day which points to something going drastically wrong. Orton actually made a comeback of sorts on the last Raw of 2014, but only after the show went off the air. Since then, it was announced that he needed Deviated Septum Surgery and would miss another four to six weeks of action.
"A deviated septum is a condition in which the nasal septum -- the bone and cartilage that divide the nasal cavity of the nose in half -- is significantly off centre, or crooked, making breathing difficult."
Maybe there has been a negative reaction to this surgery.
