Randy Orton Doesn't Need a Neck Surgery !!!!

It’s been said numerous times already and it won’t be the last; the WWE had its worst years of injuries in WWE history. Seth Rollins, Cesaro, Sasha Banks, Tyson Kidd, Daniel Bryan, John Cena, Viktor, Sin Cara, Natalya, Randy Orton, Wade Barrett, Sting, Nikki Bella, and Rusev. Lana also sustained an injury, but she wasn’t an active wrestler at the time. Either way you look at it, something negative was in the water at World Wrestling Entertainment.

None of those injuries included the WWE NXT roster. Sami Zayn, Dana Brooke, and Hideo Itami were the three-top ailments that bothered NXT programming. It was challenging to find good news, as Daniel Bryan struggled to come back from a concussion. He still is waiting to be cleared. As soon as the rumor of Shinsuke Nakamura coming to WWE came out, Bryan tweeted that he wanted to face him.

Despite all of the bad news surrounding the WWE and its injury situation, they received good news from one of their top stars. Randy Orton, who was rumored to get shoulder and neck surgery, underwent one of those operations already. His shoulder was fixed several weeks ago. However, the rumored-neck operation never happened.
Will it actually take place? According to WrestleZone and F4WOnline, Randy Orton could appear at WrestleMania 32, which dispels any rumors of a neck surgery.

“Orton met with doctors sometime in the last week and was informed he would not be needing neck surgery at this time, but he is still rehabbing a shoulder injury which initially sidelined him.”

“As for Orton’s WWE ring return, the updated word is that he is not a lock for WrestleMania 32 on April 3rd, but WWE officials are hoping to have him back in the ring sometime between mid-March and May.”

All of this began when Orton addressed his followers on social media. The former-WWE champion never actually talked about surgery, rehab, or his injury specifically on social media when it happened. John Cena at least commented on the situation, so fans weren’t left in the dark. Orton certainly didn’t do that. Here’s his Instagram post clearing up the issue of his rumored neck surgery.

“I see many of you think I need neck surgery. I heard weeks ago that Meltzer stated it as a fact. I don’t keep up with gossip, so I didn’t think anything of it. As far as my shoulder, I was cut on 12/8. Things are ahead of schedule and I’m pumped to get back to work. As far as my neck, and I’m only debunking this ‘fact’ for the sincerely concerned fans, I DONT need neck surgery. Remember, unless you hear about it on WWE.com, you really should take everything you read online concerning pro wrestling with a grain of salt.”

Since a portion of the WWE’s main event is depleted, having Orton back for WrestleMania 32 is anything but negative. They won’t throw him into the main event, but look at what he completed with Seth Rollins last year. Orton vs. Rollins was the opening match of the night. Orton’s RKO on Rollins was one of the coolest moves that the WWE Universe has seen.

It was easily one of his best RKO’s in his career. WWE officials should book Orton if he’s healthy, unlike Bryan and his situation. They need all the help they can receive, because WWE Raw doesn’t have many stars to keep it a float.
