Signed Up: Randy Orton Makes Important Decision About WWE Future

He’s in. Survivor Series saw a few different major returns, and while CM Punk is getting most of the attention, Randy Orton’s is also quite the game changing move. Orton has since returned on Monday Night Raw but now the question is where he gets to go next. That could go in a few different directions, though now we have a better idea of the way he is taking.

This week’s SmackDown ended with General Manager Nick Aldis, plus Monday Night Raw General Manager Adam Pearce, wanting to sign Orton to a contract. Aldis offered Orton a chance to get revenge on the Bloodline, who put him out of action for a year. Following a brawl with the Bloodline, Orton attacked Aldis, making him an official SmackDown star going forward.

This should be good. Check out Orton’s time on SmackDown over the years:

Opinion: In theory, this sets up the Royal Rumble showdown between Orton vs. Roman Reigns. That should be more than enough to keep Orton busy for the time being, though we still have quite a little while before we get there. For now though, we should be in for a nice build as Orton having his home established should get things off to a nice start as an important first step.
