Randy Orton's father talks about historic possible return to WWE
Randy Orton has been a major player in WWE since he made his debut in 2002 in the Evolution faction with Triple H, aka Paul Levesque, Ric Flair and Batista, whose real name is Dave Bautista. Orton became the youngest world champion in history at the age of 24.
Orton made his WWE debut in 2002 and quickly rose to prominence as one of the company's top stars.
He has won numerous championships throughout his career, including the WWE Championship
World Heavyweight Championship, and the Intercontinental Championship. Orton is also a record setting winner of the Royal Rumble match, having won it in 2009 and 2017.
Orton has been off television for nearly a year after he suffered a legitimate back injury in a tag-team match with his partner Matt Riddle and his timetable to return to the ring is unclear.
His father, legendary pro wrestler "Cowboy" Bob Orton, seemed to believe his son may not return to the ring at all.
"He's training, so we'll see what happens; I don't know," the elder Orton told Sportskeeda. "If he feels like he's ready to go back, I think he might, but again he's pretty well taken care of.
I don't think he needs to. And I think the doctors have told him not to. But Randy will do what Randy wants to do."
The WWE sensation known for his intense in-ring style and his signature move, the RKO (a jumping cutter), Randy Orton has become one of the most popular and polarizing figures in WWE history.
He has had notable rivalries and matches with several top wrestlers, including John Cena, Triple H, The Undertaker, and Edge.
Orton's wrestling career has been marked by various character changes, including portrayals of a cocky and arrogant villain as well as a more anti-hero persona.
His athleticism, ring psychology, and ability to connect with the audience have made him a fan favorite and a perennial top star in WWE.
Randy Orton was his encounter with Edge at WrestleMania 36 in 2020.
The match, dubbed "The Greatest Wrestling Match Ever," was highly anticipated and received positive reviews from fans and critics.
