WWE RAW: Randy Orton & John Cena To Renew Rivalry? Apex Predator Strikes 17-Time World Champion With Vicious RKO; Video

Randy Orton struck newly-crowned undisputed WWE champion John Cena with a vicious RKO in the latest episode of RAW held at Las Vegas, Nevada. With Cena turning around immediately after completing his address to the WWE Universe, Orton struck his long-time rival with his signature move as a video of the same surfaced on social media.

Cena broke the legendary Ric Flair's long-standing record of being a 16-time world champion by winning the championship for the 17th time in his career. The 47-year-old defeated Cody Rhodes in the main event of the second night of Wrestlemania; however, Orton looks to have established himself as Cena's next opponent.

Orton, a 14-time world champion himself, was slated to fight Kevin Owens at Wrestlemania 41 but the latter had to opt out due to a legitimate injury. However, the Viper threw an open challenge on the second night of the grandest spectacle, with Joe Hendry accepting it. But Orton won it by pin fall.

"I love where John’s head is at" - Triple H

In a press conference after the the marquee event, HHH said he is enjoying Cena's character quite a lot since he is doing as per what the fans demanded. He stated, as quoted by USA Today:

"I love where John’s head is at. I love that John Cena — he’s the flip of a coin right now. And the funny thing is that people were flipping the coin for him before. Now he’s flipping the coin, right? So all the things that they — they booed John, they were relentless on him, they pushed him to be great in some ways, but it was — you know, it was not easy for him sometimes. And I think now he gets to be the puppet master and he gets to flip that coin for them, and be the polar opposite to everything he was before."
