WWE WrestleMania 33: 5 Potential Opponents for Randy Orton

3. AJ Styles

AJ Styles just lost the WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view and probably isn’t a favorite to walk into WrestleMania 33 with a title. However, as long as he remains one of SmackDown’s top stars, he’ll stand a legitimate chance of being in the headlining match in April.

The Phenomenal One has already faced some of the top stars in WWE like Chris Jericho, Roman Reigns, John Cena, and Dean Ambrose in just one year on the main roster. Going head-to-head with Orton would be another one of those “dream match” scenarios. It could be a wrestling clinic of two excellent in-ring workers that put on an instant classic, getting the Camping World Stadium fans on their feet.

However, given that Orton and Styles are heels, this would probably need a third Superstar involved that’s a babyface. There’s one clear-cut option for this and it’s someone who had himself a record-tying night at the Royal Rumble.

Orton vs. Styles would be an intriguing addition to the WrestleMania match card. However, it seems unlikely given their paths to and from the main event scene, respectively.
