WWE SummerSlam 2023: 10 Things That Must Happen
5. Randy Orton Returns
Surprise!
Obviously, this is totally dependent on Randy Orton's health. The veteran's latest injury scare reportedly threatened his in-ring career, and it's completely up to him and his doctors whether or not a WWE return is a good idea at all. If he's game and gets the all clear, then bring it on though.
How about this: LA Knight wins that rearranged "SummerSlam Battle Royal" on TV before the PLE, then appears in Detroit to get a booming pop, shout catchphrases and ask what his prize is. His reward? Randy coming out to an even bigger pop, then blasting LA with an RKO.
Some won't like this, because they'll wonder why booking Knight with a legacy babyface is a good idea. Being honest, working opposite somebody the standing of Orton would be magic for LA regardless of who gets cheered and who gets booed. It's defo better than him slumming it with Hit Row, put it that way.
