But the night wasn’t over yet, and what happened had fans sitting on the edge of their seats.

With the words from Orton’s mouth still echoing through the arena, Ludwig Kaiser suddenly appeared and tried to ambush Viper. However, Randy Orton, drawing from his extensive experience, reacted promptly. Long-time WWE fans could easily predict the outcome of this scenario. A numbers game is often an unbeatable strategy, especially when it’s against a lone wolf. Gunter soon joined the fray and a two-on-one attack began. Tensions rose as fans watched Orton get beaten down despite his valiant efforts. It wasn’t long before the fight between Orton and Kaiser was announced as the main event of the night.

Is this a glimpse of the future?
The Viper’s previous comments during the promotional event, referring to him winning the Berlin Bash and becoming a 15-time champion, suddenly took on new meaning. WWE’s tweet seemed to hint at what many fans have been speculating for weeks: is Randy Orton about to end Gunther’s reign? The Viper’s recent actions suggest he’s ready to reclaim the top spot, and with the champion looking vulnerable, the stage is set for a potential explosive fight in Berlin.
The Return of the Viper: Age is Just a Number
At the age of 44, Randy Orton has shown that age doesn’t define him. Many people would claim that he is currently in the peak physical condition of his professional life. The WWE’s choice to renew Orton’s contract through 2029 demonstrates the company’s confidence in his talent to engage viewers and provide exceptional performances. This decision from WWE shows their trust in Orton and indicates that they believe he still has what it takes to be a champion.
Last week, there were rumors of a contract extension with Orton, but at that time, neither WWE nor Orton had confirmed it. The speculation ended when Shawn Ross Sapp announced on social media that Orton himself had confirmed the five-year extension. In an interview, Orton said: “I intend to do this for longer. I just signed a five-year contract extension. There is no need to hurry. As far as I’m concerned, I have unlimited time. I feel fantastic. I am in good health.”
With Orton’s tenure in WWE extended for another five years, the next step for the Viper is uncertain. Will he become a 15-time champion, or can Gunther manage to hold onto his title? Certainly, the WWE Universe is closely monitoring every move as this rivalry heats up.
What is on the horizon for Randy Orton and Gunther?
With excitement growing for the WWE Bash in Berlin, spectators are curious about the outcome of this heated rivalry. Could Randy Orton’s risky decision on RAW result in another title win, or will Gunther be able to change the outcome? The response will be unveiled during one of the most thrilling battles in recent WWE history. What is your opinion? Is Randy Orton poised to take the World Heavyweight Champion title from Gunther, becoming a 15-time champion himself? The WWE Universe is eagerly anticipating.
