We haven’t heard from Randy Orton for awhile, but that’s to be expected when you’re as injured as the former WWE Champion.

However, Orton has reemerged out of nowhere to address the latest hot piece of wrestling news that King Barrett will be leaving WWE when his contract expires this summer.

Barrett is reportedly unhappy with his position in the company, and he’s looking to explore other endeavours. He’s been hush-hush about his future plans, but Orton is taking exception to him leaving WWE.

He posted the following message which you can read right here from Orton’s Facebook page:

“One thing ?#?TheViper? doesn’t respect: A COWARD.”

It’s being reported that it’s a strong possibility that a WWE official who is in charge of the account is actually the one who posted the message to Barrett.

If it was Orton’s message to Barrett, this could potentially be a work that eventually leads to a feud between them if Randy can return before June.

Of course, there is the possibility of this message being genuine. If it is, there is a lot more going on in this situation than any of us know, and it doesn’t seem like Randy Orton will miss Barrett once he leaves later this year.
