Randy Orton Returns to In-Ring Action at Survivor Series
After an absence of several months due to a back injury, wrestling fans everywhere are thrilled to see Randy Orton back in action at tonight’s Survivor Series. This will mark his first in-ring match since May of 2022, and it is a testament to his incredible longevity in the sport.
Many had heard rumors that Orton may have to retire due to the severity of his back injury. However, with his return tonight, it seems that he has managed to overcome those obstacles. In a recent episode of The Kurt Angle Show podcast, Kurt Angle revealed that Orton had expressed his worries about the injury, stating, “Hey, man, it’s not looking good. I don’t know how my back is going to heal if my back’s going to heal.”
Despite these concerns, Orton has managed to recover and is ready to step back into the ring. The 43-year-old’s goal is to continue wrestling until he reaches the age of 50, and Angle believes that this is a realistic target, stating, “He still has a good six or seven years if he stays healthy.”
With tonight’s match at Survivor Series, Orton is taking the first steps towards achieving this milestone. Wrestling fans are undoubtedly excited to see the Viper back in action and are hopeful that he will continue to entertain for many years to come.
