1. Bray Wyatt

The opponent that will make the most sense for Randy Orton at WrestleMania 33 is Bray Wyatt. Given the ongoing storyline, these two haven’t shown any sign of tension on SmackDown, especially after Luke Harper seemingly split from them at the Royal Rumble. They also worked together to double-team Roman Reigns in the final moments of the battle royal match, so all seems well with them.

With the Elimination Chamber PPV in less than two weeks, Wyatt may be a candidate to join the field for the match of the same name and compete for the WWE Championship. If he can walk out victoriously with his first-ever World title, it would set up a date with Orton at WrestleMania 33, a match that has seemingly been in the making since the Apex Predator joined the Wyatt Family.

Who walks into this match as the babyface would be interesting. Orton has played this role plenty of times before, and as recently as October. Wyatt teased this after WrestleManai 32, but would be thwarted by a calf injury that took him out of action for two months. He returned as a heel and has been this way ever since. So could WWE test the waters by having the cult-like leader being the good guy?
