WWE will host its WrestleMania 41 Premium Live Event on Saturday, April 19, and Sunday, April 20, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.
One of the matches scheduled for The Show of Shows was supposed to feature “The Prize Fighter” Kevin Owens facing “The Viper” Randy Orton in a singles match. Unfortunately, Owens suffered a serious injury that will keep him sidelined for over a year.
Betting odds have been released regarding who is expected to face Orton at WrestleMania 41. SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis is the clear favorite to be named as The Viper’s opponent, with re-signed WWE star Aleister Black as the next likely candidate to face Orton on The Grandest Stage of Them All.

Randy Orton was scheduled to face off against Kevin Owens at WrestleMania 41. It would have been an amazing match.
Unfortunately, KO was advised by doctors to get neck surgery and is on the shelf for the foreseeable future.
We know there is zero chance that a healthy Apex Predator will be sidelined for Mania.
The oddsmakers at BetOnline.ag have opened lines on who will face Orton in Las Vegas and most likely fall prey to the Viper.
