Randy Orton WWE return is on the cards soon. Some rumors claimed that the Legend Killer is ready for a return soon and reports even surfaced that he could return at the Money in the Bank premium live event in London. While that did not happen, fans now wonder whether Randy Orton will return tonight.
Orton has not been seen in WWE since The Bloodline attacked him on a SmackDown episode in May 2022. More than a year has passed since then. Orton underwent surgery for his injuries and has reportedly returned to full fitness.
Tonight’s WWE RAW episode will air live from the CFG Bank Arena in Baltimore. While WWE has not drafted Randy to any brand, it is believed that he will join the RAW brand because his tag team partner Matt Riddle is also on the show.

Riddle recently challenged Gunther for the WWE Intercontinental Championship at Money in the Bank. He lost the match, and after the match, Drew McIntyre made a stunning return to confront. It seems like the storyline between Gunther and Matt Riddle has ended.
Will Randy Orton return to WWE and turn on Matt Riddle straightaway?
No rumor has surfaced so far claiming that Randy Orton will return tonight. Also, Fightful Select reported that Orton was not due to return to the company yet. So, Orton will likely be absent from tonight’s show in Baltimore.
Randy Orton's return is expected soon.

However, it is pertinent to note that nobody knew about John Cena’s return at Money in the Bank last Saturday. Perhaps, Orton can return on the SmackDown at Madison Square Garden this Friday in New York. If WWE wants to set up a high profile feud for Orton, they should book him to betray Riddle straightaway and set up a match for the SummerSlam show on August 5 at the Ford Field.
