1) Randy Orton To Win The WWE Championship?
According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, there are rumblings in WWE that Randy Orton will win the WWE Championship from Drew McIntyre.
This will lead to Randy defending the Title against Edge at Wrestlemania 37. Here is what Meltzer wrote:
McIntyre vs. Orton was as of this past week the new scheduled SummerSlam main event. There have been rumors floating that Orton goes over and leads to a match with Edge, but that seems so counterproductive to take the title off McIntyre for Orton.
Right now, and this can change 100 times (it seemed television this week along changed that many times), the plan is for Edge vs. Orton in an I Quit match as one of the key matches for next WrestleMania. It was already scheduled for SummerSlam before the Backlash “Best in the World” match took place, but Edge’s injury made that impossible.
My Take:
- This is a tough one because I think Drew is doing really well as Champion right now. Randy is also firing on all cylinders and I could see why WWE wants to put the belt on him. It will be interesting to see who walks out with the belt.
