Randy Orton WWE Return Date Potentially Revealed

WWE

After over 13 months on the sidelines due to serious back injury issues, Randy Orton may thankfully be nearing a return to the WWE ring.

According to a new tweet from WRKD Wrestling, Orton’s comeback could come as soon as this Saturday (July 1) at Money in the Bank from London’s 02 Arena.

WRKD Wrestling states:

Randy Orton is expected to be nearing a return, possibly even as soon as this weekend’s Money In The Bank.

Orton has been out of action since May of 2022 with a serious back injury.

Fans’ hopes of a potential Orton return were recently increased by WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle, who revealed on his Kurt Angle Show podcast that Orton was potentially nearing a comeback.

Angle said:

“(Orton’s) doing good man. He recovered from his back surgery. I think he’s gonna come back pretty damn soon.

“He’s doing much better, yes. He’s coming back to life (regarding Orton posting more on social media).”

This was a welcome update following months of speculation that Orton could be forced to retire due to his ongoing back issues, something that was suggested to be a very real possibility by Orton’s father Bob earlier this year.

While its unclear whether Orton will in fact be back on July 1, his former RK-Bro tag team partner Matt Riddle is in action at the event, taking on Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship, so perhaps there’s a ready-made angle for the ‘Legend Killer’ to return to.

Regardless, we at WrestleTalk.com continue to extend our well wishes to Orton in his recovery.
