Randy Orton Advertised for 12/1 WWE SmackDown – Randy Orton will be in the building when WWE SmackDown comes to New York City this Friday.
The Barclays Center in Brooklyn announced on social media today that Orton will make his return to SmackDown this Friday night (December 1). This is the first SmackDown episode since Survivor Series.
At Survivor Series, Orton returned to the ring for the first time since May 2022. He had been out of action after undergoing double fusion surgery last year for a career-threatening back injury.
Orton teamed with Cody Rhodes, Jey Uso, Seth Rollins & Sami Zayn in the men’s WarGames match at Survivor Series. They defeated Damian Priest, Finn Balor, Dominik Mysterio, JD McDonagh & Drew McIntyre.
Orton also wrestled on Raw last night, defeating Dominik. There was a backstage segment on the show where Orton said he has unfinished business with The Bloodline. Orton told Jey Uso that, as long as Jey is out of The Bloodline, things are good between them.
An appearance by United States Champion Logan Paul has been announced for this Friday’s SmackDown. Paul won the title from Rey Mysterio at Crown Jewel earlier this month.
