– Randy Orton made his WWE return at Survivor Series, and Freddie Prinze Jr. commented on the Viper’s physical condition. Orton was part of the men’s WarGames match that served as the main event and was on the winning team along with Cody Rhodes, Seth Rollins, Jey Uso, and Sami Zayn. Prinze was impressed with Orton’s physical shape, noting on his Wrestling With Freddie podcast (per Wrestling Inc):

“He like Benjamin Button’d himself. He legit looked 10 years younger than he did when he got hurt and he looked phenomenal.”

– Doc Rivers, the head coach of the Philadelphia 76ers, says he’d like to see NBA MVP Joel Embiid appear in WWE. Rivers spoke with Sports Illustrated about the topic and noted Embiid’s WWE fandom, saying:

“I want to see him do that. Joel loves WWE, and he’d be great at that. I’d love to see it.”
