Randy Orton has been out of action for a long time due to his back injury. He was written off WWE television after being attacked by The Usos.
During a GiveMeSport interview with WrestleVotes, it was reported that WWE’s original plans for The Viper’s return would have seen him immediately turn on Matt Riddle and begin a feud between the two.
When Randy Orton went down, the plan was for him to come back and immediately turn on Matt Riddle.

Randy Orton could also miss out on the remainder of this year due to his injury. Perhaps Triple H might still go with this plan if he wants to. We’ll have to see what will become of Orton in the end.
