As per the reports from fightful.com, Randy Orton approached Vince McMahon in order to push for a stable formed between himself and The Revival, Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson. WWE had eventually given a push to the group formed by the trio back at this summer.
Randy Orton was feuding with Kofi Kingston for the WWE Championship at that point. While some believed that they would carry forward the momentums to become stronger, WWE would leave the idea.
Dawson and Wilder would attempt to assist Orton in his attempts to become the WWE Champion by defeating Kofi Kingston. Despite their team gaining some heel heats, WWE would turn down the pitch created by Randy Orton.
These three eventually landed on the different rosters which may have brought the frustrations out of them. As a result, chances were there that the Apex Predator of the WWE might choose to leave the WWE and end up signing with the All Elite Wrestling.
During the most recent edition of the WWE Draft, The Revival had to move to SmackDown. ‘The Viper’ Randy Orton would end up on WWE’s red brand, Monday Night RAW.
Just around the same time, he stirred up the internet by uploading a photo of himself teasing interest in All Elite Wrestling (AEW). Orton would post a photo with the ‘Elite’ picture written behind her.
Meanwhile, Dawson and Wilder added to the speculation by commenting on those posts on social media. They also mentioned seeing Randy Orton down the road which means there’s a chance of seeing them reunited at All Elite Wrestling. As of now, The Revival’s contract is intact with WWE until mid-2020 whereas Randy Orton would be staying here for five more years.
