5 WWE Superstars that Brock Lesnar could face off with at Royal Rumble 2020

#3. Randy Orton

Rematch?

Randy Orton and Brock Lesnar have a real history together. 'The Viper' and 'The Beast' go way back - all the way to OVW. Their careers have had different paths, but both are well regarded. Orton is a third generation wrestler with professional wrestling in his blood, while Lesnar has made it clear that he has always taken to wrestling, just for the money.

Think back to the infamous SummerSlam finish back in 2016 when Brock Lesnar left Orton in a pool of blood. While it was a worked shoot, several fans were unhappy with the gratuitous violence. Moreover, WWE never visited this story again on television or in a pay-per-view.

Randy Orton, however, has tweeted that he does want a rematch with 'The Beast Incarnate.'

The Men's Royal Rumble Match would be a perfect place to test that theory with the audience to see if it gets the pop that Vince McMahon could be looking for. It would certainly make for a great story, as Orton would want revenge on the man who annihilated him at SummerSlam.

The matchup could prove to be the building blocks for a potential match at WrestleMania 36. Whatever case may be, the audience at Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas will decide the fate of this potential clash.
