Randy Orton and AJ Styles aren't strangers in the least. The two Superstars kicked off a rivalry on SmackDown Live on the road to WrestleMania 35, which culminated in a match between the two at The Show of Shows. AJ Styles won the match after hitting a Phenomenal Forearm on Orton.

The rivalry ended there and then, as Styles was moved to Monday Night Raw in the Superstar Shakeup. The Mania match has now become infamous for a completely different reason.

A large group of fans didn't get to witness the bout, as a beam of bright golden light illuminated from one side of the entrance set, directly on the opposite section of the stadium. Orton went on to apologize to the fans on behalf of WWE.

The heart of the matter

The rivalry between The Viper and The Phenomenal One is history, but Orton doesn't seem to share the same thought. He recently took a hilarious shot at his WrestleMania opponent on Instagram.

Former WWE Superstar Hornswoggle came to an event donning the AJ Styles look, and Orton was quick to use it against Styles.

Orton tagged Styles in the caption, and referred to him jokingly as a traitor. Several WWE Superstars chimed in on the discussion, most notably Sasha Banks, Matt Hardy, and Ali.
