Rhodes regained the Undisputed WWE Championship at the SummerSlam Premium Live Event by dethroning John Cena. He successfully retained the title against Drew McIntyre at Wrestlepalooza, setting up a match against Rollins in the process. The Visionary became the new World Heavyweight Champion at SummerSlam by cashing in his Money in the Bank contract on CM Punk.

One man who has also gotten involved in Rhodes' feud with Rollins and has had his equal share of issues with The Vision is Randy Orton. The American Nightmare's real-life mentor teamed up with him on SmackDown in a losing effort against Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.

Is Triple H getting overconfident? Here are the signs!

Over the past year, Orton has teased challenging for the Undisputed WWE Championship. A large portion of fans have also called for The Viper's heel turn, demanding that he turn heel by betraying Rhodes.

At Crown Jewel, Orton's heel turn could finally be in motion if he decided to get involved in the Rhodes-Rollins match and if he accidentally cost The American Nightmare the match.

Speaking on BroDown, Russo stated that the angle was quite repetitive. He said:

"How many times are we gonna play the card, you're boy, Paul Heyman, 'Can we really trust Orton?' How many times are we gonna play that card? How many times are you gonna have Big Purse go down there and try to buy the services of Ram Head?"

Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins have crossed paths on multiple occasions in the past, with The American Nightmare winning the majority of the matches.
