UPDATE: It’s been announced that Kevin Owens will face Orton next week on RAW.
Woo! Ric Flair is back and managing Randy Orton again after his wife had a COVID-19 encounter.
Orton confronted Drew McIntyre, who said Orton should’ve been fired multiple times due to attitude issues, backstage incidents, and failed drug tests. “The Viper” said the WWE Champion was correct and that he should’ve been fired for when he messed up in the past. However, he’s more valuable to the company than Drew ever will be and that’s why he wasn’t fired but Drew was.

McIntyre then cut a passionate promo about how personal the match is and how Orton represents everything he sees wrong with WWE. The two will face off at WWE SummerSlam in two weeks.
How many things has @RandyOrton ever done to help his fellow Superstars?
