Rumor Roundup: Original Royal Rumble Winner, Possible Wrestlemania 38 Match, More

1) Possible Wrestlemania 38 Match

According to @Wrestlevotes, WWE’s original plan was to do Randy Orton vs Matt Riddle at Summerslam. The match then got pushed back to Wrestlemania 38. Some creative team members want to keep them together as a tag team and if they do split up, they want their eventual match to be for the WWE Title.

Here is what the account Tweeted:

WWE had plans since the pairing began last spring for Riddle vs Randy Orton @ SummerSlam, which didn’t happen. Plan was to hold off til Mania. I’m told now only a handful of creative members want to spilt them, w/ the idea that if the match happens, it should be for the WWE title

My Take:

  • Orton vs Riddle would make a ton of sense for Wrestlemania. I can’t lie though, I want them to stay together as they are gold as a tag team.
