What will happen to Randy Orton and The Fiend?

It's clear that despite the ending to WWE TLC 2020, 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt isn't going to be out for long. Randy Orton set The Fiend on fire to end TLC, but he got directly involved with Alexa Bliss afterward.

It seems clear that they're set for a match at the Royal Rumble 2021, and Dave Meltzer on the latest WON revealed that WWE is planning a Firefly Fun House match for the first pay-per-view of 2021.

According to the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE is reportedly planning Randy Orton vs "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt at Royal Rumble 2021 in a Firefly Funhouse match. If that does happen, it would become the second-ever Firefly Funhouse match in history after the one between John Cena and Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 36.

We hope this isn't true because it's an unwanted stipulation match that likely won't deliver. While the Firefly Inferno match certainly did, this is entirely different. We must admit, however, that the Firefly Fun House match with John Cena at WrestleMania 36 was fun and unique.
