Kevin Nash questions the booking of this top WWE Superstar. On the latest episode of Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast, the WWE Hall of Famer spoke on the company’s recent lack of using Randy Orton and questioned why the company hasn’t positioned him to become their first 18-time World Champion.

Randy Orton has been off WWE television since the October 3rd episode of WWE SmackDown when he took a curb stomp from Seth Rollins and a tsunami from Bronson Reed. It is unknown when he will return, but he has said he’ll be part of the 2026 Royal Rumble. Speaking on his Kliq This podcast, Kevin Nash wondered why WWE doesn’t utilize Randy more.

WWE took an unprecedented approach to John Cena's retirement by booking an entire tour throughout 2025, starting with Raw's Netflix premiere on Jan. 6 and culminating with a special Saturday Night's Main Event built around his last match.

Randy Orton was one of the most important parts of John Cena's career and faced him at a lot of different occasions.

Orton hasn't stepped inside the ring since the Oct. 3 episode of SmackDown. He teamed with Cody Rhodes in a loss to Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. Like Punk, retirement is broadly far from Orton's mind. He told Complex's Raj Prashad in April he re-signed with WWE on a five-year deal.
