Randy Orton Called Out for WrestleMania 41 Match in Bold Two-Word Message

Randy Orton may have just found himself a WrestleMania dance partner—and it’s a familiar face with a lot of history.

After Kevin Owens confirmed a neck injury would sideline him from WrestleMania 41, Randy Orton was left without a match. That frustration boiled over on SmackDown, where Orton took out General Manager Nick Aldis with a brutal RKO. Now, another veteran has stepped forward—and he didn’t need many words to do it.

Sheamus, who hasn’t been seen much on WWE TV lately, threw his name into the conversation with a cryptic but clear two-word message on social media: “I’m available.” No tags. No names. Just perfect timing.

The former WWE Champion hasn’t wrestled a televised match since the Royal Rumble and has been notably absent during the WrestleMania buildup. Aside from a couple of matches on WWE’s European tour against Bron Breakker, Sheamus has kept a low profile. That made fans wonder if he was injured—or if WWE simply didn’t have plans for him.

But this week’s subtle call-out changes everything. With fans are wondering who could step up against Orton, Sheamus throwing his name into the mix is more than a suggestion—it’s a challenge.

Their rivalry goes back more than a decade, and the chemistry is undeniable. Both men are hard-hitting, battle-tested veterans. A Sheamus vs. Randy Orton clash at WrestleMania 41 would be a throwback to the brutal, no-nonsense wrestling era that both men helped define.

With WWE yet to officially confirm Orton’s opponent, this is the loudest hint yet that Sheamus might be filling the gap.
