Ever since Cody Rhodes came back to WWE, fans have been wondering when the current Undisputed WWE Champion will run it back with Randy Orton. Former WWE Superstar Ryback recently discussed a potential feud between the two friends.
The two stalwarts share a rich history that dates back to their time in The Legacy, a heel faction led by The Viper (From 2008-10) also featuring Ted DiBiase Jr., Manu, and Sim Snuka. The group didn't last long, but it helped put Cody Rhodes on the map.
Orton and Rhodes last wrestled each other in a singles match back in 2013, where The Apex Predator defeated The American Nightmare in a 'career on the line' match. A few weeks ago on WWE SmackDown, the two men came face-to-face backstage. Many fans thought WWE dropped a subtle tease for an inevitable feud.
Speaking on the Ryback TV podcast, The Big Guy entertained the idea of Randy Orton winning the 2025 Men's Royal Rumble Match to challenge Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania in Las Vegas:
>"It could be. Yeah! That one could be very big if they timed that perfectly. I agree. I think that, I think Randy-Cody is money when they are ready to get into that and they don't need to rush that at all ... If Cody holds the title to WrestleMania next year, it'd be interesting to see if they let Orton win the Royal Rumble and kind of let that be the trigger to all of that. We'll have to see how they go into it when they eventually do. But I think that's definitely on the go, that's definitely on their board of storylines for Cody," Ryback said. (1:25:50 - 1:26:30)
