We should get confirmation for one of the last bouts to be added to the WrestleMania 31 card during the March 16 edition of “Monday Night Raw.”
“The Viper” Randy Orton is set to call out Seth Rollins and issue a challenge for a one-on-one bout on March 29 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.
Per WWE.com’s Five-Point Preview:
“Things have never exactly been amicable between Randy Orton and Seth Rollins, but the combustible situation between The Viper and Mr. Money in the Bank absolutely erupted last Monday night when Orton decimated Rollins in a cold, methodical assault that ended with an RKO through the announce desk.
Orton discussed the attack in an interview Thursday night on SmackDown, revealing that his plan for Monday night was to spit on Rollins’ face and challenge the so-called “future of WWE” to a battle at WrestleMania. Keeping in mind how Orton completely dominated Rollins at the conclusion of last Monday’s Raw, one might argue that Rollins would be foolish to accept such a challenge. However, Rollins might also see a clash with Orton as the ultimate chance for vengeance on The Grandest Stage of Them All. Expect some serious fireworks between these former allies when Raw goes on the air.’
Editor’s Note
It’s only taken forever and a half, but we’re finally going to get Orton vs. Rollins confirmed for WrestleMania 31. One of the biggest matches on the card gets made official last. Go figure.
