Randy Orton has been a WWE Lifer but he didn’t ever have a long hiatus in his career like the one had after Wrestlemania 38. It lasted for more than one and a half years before we finally got him back on WWE programming at Survivor Series 2023 in the WarGames Match.
Now that “Daddy’s Back” is home, he’s going after the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship held by Roman Reigns, a match that’s yet to be confirmed for Royal Rumble 2024. It should be noted that Randy Orton is a 14-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion and with 3 More World Title reigns, he would break Ric Flair’s 16 World Titles record which is the most coveted record in pro wrestling.

4. Even after spending two decades in the company, his drawing power remains at its peak.

6. Ric Flair himself wanted to see Randy Orton break his record instead of Cena, as he is a full-time performer, unlike Cena.
7. Besides, as the Legend Killer, Orton remained under Flair’s learning tree in Evolution, so it makes sense that he surpasses his predecessor.
