Randy Orton Sends Message To WWE Fans Amid Hiatus

Randy Orton is currently in Saudi Arabia doing promotional work ahead of WWE’s 2026 Royal Rumble Premium Live Event, which is taking place in Riyadh. He is joined by other stars, including Liv Morgan, Grayson Waller, and Omos.

Saudi Arabian adviser Turki Al-Sheikh posted a video on TikTok of Orton promoting Royal Rumble 2026 and the Friday Night SmackDown episode that will take place in Saudi Arabia before the PLE. Orton confirmed he will be at both events.

“This is Randy Orton with the WWE. I am at The Grove and I just wanna remind everybody that tickets are still on sale for the Royal Rumble, coming here to Riyadh at the end of January, and tickets are still on sale for SmackDown too so make sure you get your tickets and I will see you at the Royal Rumble or I will see you at SmackDown, and I will 100 percent see you here at the one and only Grove,” Orton stated.

The 2026 Royal Rumble is scheduled for January 31 in Riyadh, marking the first time one of WWE’s “Big Four” events will be held outside of North America. The event will be part of Riyadh Season and continues WWE’s long-term partnership with the Kingdom.

Orton has been off television for the last several months with no return date reportedly set.
