WWE News: Brock Lesnar vs. Randy Orton at This Year's SummerSlam PPV?

Drake OzJun 7, 2018

When Brock Lesnar returned to the WWE just a few short weeks ago, he made it pretty clear who his primary target was: John Cena

Although Lesnar and Cena have yet to even face off at Extreme Rules, though, a lot of wrestling fans have already begun to speculate about who Lesnar will feud with next. 

Surely, he isn’t going to be feuding with Cena forever. He’s going to feud with a number of big stars throughout the duration of his one-year contract with the WWE.

Well, guess what? It looks like we may be getting yet another dream feud for Lesnar in the not-so-distant future. 

From F4Wonline.com (sorry, it’s for subscription users only): 

"

The plan as of today, and this could change, is to build towards Brock Lesnar vs. Randy Orton at SummerSlam, which would be a big match and probably do a very good buyrate if promoted correctly. 

"

When Lesnar returned to the WWE not even a month ago, a bout with Orton was one of the matches I said that I really wanted to see. In fact, the only non-Cena match I want to see more than Orton/Lesnar is Orton/Punk. 

Orton and Lesnar have a lot of history with each other, as they both debuted in 2002, which was one of the greatest years (if not the greatest) for debuts in WWE history. 

Orton would go on to become the youngest World Heavyweight Champion in history, while Lesnar would go on to become the youngest WWE Champion ever. 

Along the way, they crossed paths a number of times (even in Ohio Valley Wrestling) and became two of the biggest stars in pro wrestling in the process. 

A potential feud between Orton and Lesnar a decade after these two first debuted would be great for nostalgic purposes, but it would still be a matchup of two young guys who can still go (well, in Lesnar’s case, we think he can). 

Orton has proven capable of working with a variety of opponents, and if Lesnar is anywhere close to as good as he was in his last WWE run, then a potential feud and SummerSlam match between the two is something that must happen.
