Booker T recently shared his thoughts on if Randy Orton will be joining AEW following next year when his contract expires. Booker T stated that he wouldn’t be surprised by the decision but doesn’t think it will happen though.
Booker T had the following to say on if Orton will be heading to All Elite Wrestling:
“How cool [AEW] is, you know, Cody Rhodes and Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, and yeah he is an elite-level player. I always said, Randy Orton is an elite wrestler, he’s an elite superstar. He’s my guy, I always said that. One thing about Randy man, he’s always been a rebel. He’s always been a guy that walks to the beat of his own drum, you know what I mean? And if anybody was to do something crazy, it would be Randy… I’m gonna say it right now, man. If it happened, I would not be surprised.”
Booker T elaborated though and was asked if he actually thinks it will happen:
“But I don’t think something like that is going to happen. I think Randy Orton is safe, and I think he’s being taken care of very well in the WWE. I don’t think we’re going to lose Randy Orton any time soon. But anything’s possible. Like Randy ‘The Macho Man’ Savage said many years ago, ‘Always expect the unexpected.’”
