View Full Version : Randy Orton's "Next Victim"

As seen on Smackdown, Randy Orton invaded the production truck to leer over footage of his violence on Jeff Hardy while he rubbed his disgusting hands over the producers face. As he did so, he threatened that what he did to Jeff will pale in comparison to what he has in mind for his next victim. That leaves us with a big ol' "who?!"

The easy answer is AJ Styles. Randy is easily a top heel on Smackdown with only Miz and Joe as his peers in quality. I see the program between AJ and Orton as likely, but only if they remove the title from AJ. I suspect the WWE Championship is earmarked for the conclusion of Miz vs Bryan, and a slow build to a match up with Orton might be a good place for AJ.

There's also this notion that Orton is going to tear down those who we fans hold up on a pedestal. For one, this brings us to Daniel Bryan. As good as that can be, well, been there, done that. Fans are also firmly behind Rusev lately, but the timing of his new feud with his former partner Aiden English won't likely work out. Not yet anyway.

So, I don't know, but Orton's been a damn good heel lately that I'm eager to find out who he's stalking.

Doesn't surprise me. I thought this would've already taken place.

I hope he goes after RAW's creative team honestly

Just never "Big League" him.

AJ is the only person that makes sense but at the same time Joe vs. AJ feels like it can be drawn out for a couple of more months.

Maybe Orton could do something with New Day. For instance, he could cost The New Day the titles and then just attack each one separately week-to-week. I know a 1 vs. 3 scenario where the one is a heel is odd but I think you could get creative with those four guys and do some unique stuff and fresh match-ups.

Yeah, I could see AJ Styles as Orton's "next victim" as it makes complete sense. Styles, in my opinion, is a great, traditional babyface, the SmackDown fans love him and he goe son about how SmackDown Live is the "house that AJ Styles built." I could easily see Orton just coming out of nowhere to interfere in one of Styles' matches, costing him the WWE Championship and his rematch against either Samoa Joe or the Miz.
