The 14-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton recently joined Cody Rhodes on What Do You Wanna Talk About? During the appearance, Orton discussed the possibility of facing John Cena one last time during his upcoming retirement tour.
He stated, “I would love to work with the man and have a couple TVs or more to set it up and really make something special of it. Because no matter how much we faced each other back in the day, almost to the point where people were sick of it when people look back and think about it, they’re like, ‘Oh, Orton-Cena, wow. It was this amazing rivalry.’
“To have that callback, that nostalgia concept, and to do it for the fans who I feel like they’d appreciate it, and we go out there and have some fun and tear the place down. I would love to do that, but I guess, according to John, we’re just gonna let it, you know, if it organically happens, it’ll happen, but I think it’ll happen. I think it’s in the cards,” he added.
John Cena and Randy Orton’s rivalry is one of the biggest in WWE history. Many fans are calling for them to face off at WrestleMania, a stage where they have never had a singles match. It will be interesting to see if WWE plans to book this match for next year’s WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.
