5 reasons why Randy Orton should face Riddle at WWE WrestleMania 38

#4 Randy Orton is better suited as a star singles wrestler

It is not unusual to see Randy Orton as part of a stable or tag team in WWE. The Viper made his name in the Evolution faction and tried his hand at leading his own group with The Legacy. While he's enjoyed plenty of success as part of a team, there's no denying that Orton is better suited when the spotlight is solely on him.

Randy Orton vs. Riddle should happen at WrestleMania so the Legend Killer can resume his singles career. He can excel once again by himself, as he'll have more freedom to work with his character. By contrast, he's somewhat limited in his role as Riddle's partner.

The only way for Orton to once again go on a solo path is to disband RK-Bro. WWE has a few options, but one clear path forward would set up a bitter grudge match at WrestleMania.

#3 Randy Orton should once again turn to the dark side that brought some of the best work of his WWE career

Most fans would agree that Randy Orton's best work in WWE has come when he's been a heel. If Randy Orton and Riddle collide at WrestleMania, The Viper needs to be the villain.

The evil, conniving and twisted work that Orton usually provides as a bad guy is stellar. He can brilliantly play the part without even having to think about it. It comes naturally and, most of all, he loves playing such a character.

Could it be that we will see the master of the RKO drop Riddle in the middle of the ring in the coming weeks? Based on Orton's past, the fans would certainly not be disappointed to see his dark side again.
