The Viper has his sights set on gold as the WWE Universe prepares for WWE SummerSlam 2018.

As the WWE Universe starts to get ready for WWE SummerSlam 2018, Randy Orton has everyone talking.

The former United States Champion had not been seen in the WWE since his defeat to Jeff Hardy at Backlash. Orton made his return to the ring at Extreme Rules, potentially turning heel by attacking Hardy after his defeat at the hands of Shinsuke Nakamura.

Orton and Nakamura also stared each other down, with Orton making it quite clear that he has returned to reclaim the US title belt.

While he may not be as relevant as he used to be, The Viper is still one of the most decorated stars still active in the WWE. So it would make sense that the company would want him to be competing on their second biggest show of the year, SummerSlam.

The company has had a somewhat lacklustre year on PPV in 2018, and they will want to pull out all of the stops to entertain the fans at SummerSlam. Randy Orton still remains one of SmackDown’s biggest draws, and choosing the right match for him could be essential in getting the event right. Let’s take a look at three potential opponents for The Viper at SummerSlam.
