Randy Orton Wants To Wrestle John Cena At WrestleMania To Break The World Title Tie
Randy Orton and John Cena are two of the greatest stars from the Ruthless Aggression era of WWE. The two men will always be tied together thanks to their countless feuds and matches over the years. Cena has 16 World Titles to his name while Orton currently stands at 13 World Title reigns.
In the coming years, Orton hopes to match Cena, setting up one final showdown between the two.
“How cool would it be, for me, to wrestle Triple H, win the title a few more times, and then have a match with Cena to break the tie,” said Randy Orton on a media call. “I don’t if Ric would be the referee, I think he would be a special ringside commentator or in one of our corners. Could you imagine Cena as the heel, Flair in his corner, me as the babyface, both of us at 16 World Titles and main eventing WrestleMania in 3-5 years to see who breaks that tie? To me, that would be the ultimate way to eventually ride off into the sunset. I might be dreaming there, but since I’ve been thinking of it, it proves the number or World Titles means a lot to me. I would love to at least tie with Ric and John, but to come out 17-time World Champion, I don’t know if there’s anyone else that can do it. I feel like we’d be wasting an opportunity if we didn’t try to make a big soap opera for six months or a year about the story of those reigns”
Orton had a chance to add to his number of reigns at WWE SummerSlam, but he was bested by Drew McIntyre in the WWE Title bout.
