WWE NXT: 5 wrestlers we’d love to see Randy Orton face

Pete Dunne

The former record-breaking United Kingdom Champion has been one of the most naturally gifted wrestlers in WWE since stepping foot into a ring with the company. And you know who is billed as the most naturally gifted male superstar of all time?

Randy Orton vs. Pete Dunne would be a psychological clinic, and it would bring something else out of Dunne, who should be playing a much bigger role in NXT than he is. Dunne’s work with Matt Riddle was fine, but Dunne should honestly be in the NXT Title picture. He should be one of the absolute top stars in the company, and a great way to bump him along that route would be to have him pin Orton.

Keith Lee

The current North American Champion, Keith Lee looks set to win the WWE NXT Title soon and may even unite both titles. Whatever happens, Lee is going to be a big winner soon, and he should be the top star for the Black and Gold brand to take over from Adam Cole.

There isn’t a more charismatic babyface in NXT right now, and he showed during the build to Survivor Series – and in the match itself while going toe-to-toe with megastars Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins – that he is ready to be a top star on any brand. Randy Orton vs. Keith Lee could be one of NXT’s best matches ever, as long as WWE makes sure Lee is showcased and central to the match’s story.
