The most recent storyline on this list surrounds Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton who were friends turned enemies back in 2017. Randy Orton won the Royal Rumble in January which meant that he could choose which Champion to face at WrestleMania, a decision that became much harder when Bray Wyatt won the WWE Championship at Elimination Chamber.

Orton and Wyatt were Tag Team Champions ahead of the Royal Rumble and Orton declared that he had relinquished his Championship match at WrestleMania in order to show his devotion to Wyatt.

Of course, The Viper can never be trusted and just weeks later he proved that he was coming for that WWE Championship when he set fire to Wyatt's compound. The two men later went on to face off at WrestleMania with Orton taking the WWE Championship.

The rematch a few weeks later took place inside a House of Horrors and wasn't for the WWE Championship, which means that Wyatt was never handed his contractual rematch. This was due to the fact that Wyatt had been drafted over to RAW.
