Randy Orton has continued teasing a mystery alliance following his recent heel turn, with a potential reveal now looming on WWE SmackDown.
Since turning on Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton has hinted at working with an unnamed “phone friend,” though he has yet to confirm the identity of the individual. The storyline has fuelled speculation that the alliance could involve another prominent wrestling family.
Orton recently shared an update on social media, suggesting that a meeting with the mystery figure is set to take place on the April 3 episode of SmackDown in his hometown of St. Louis.
“Likewise, man. I appreciate everything you’ve been doing for me. Yeah, I think we are good to go. This Friday, right? I’d see you in St. Louis,” Orton said.
