Randy Orton Says He Won’t Leave Las Vegas Without The WWE Title

Randy Orton is heading into WrestleMania 42 with one goal in mind — capturing championship number 15 — and he made it clear that he doesn’t plan on leaving Las Vegas empty-handed.

While speaking with Wade Barrett during a sit-down interview for WWE’s YouTube channel, Orton opened up about the upcoming Undisputed WWE Championship match against Cody Rhodes. The conversation focused on their shared history and what this moment means to both competitors.

Despite admitting he still cares about Cody Rhodes like a brother, Orton made it clear that personal feelings won’t interfere with his mission at WrestleMania. As the discussion shifted toward the reality of the title match, Orton made his intentions crystal clear with a blunt warning about what lies ahead.

“He's gonna leave Vegas, if he's lucky, on his own two feet, but I ain't walking out of Vegas without that title. And likely, he's gonna have to be carried out.”

That statement reinforced the idea that Orton sees WrestleMania 42 as a defining moment in his career. With legacy on the line and history within reach, he appears fully prepared to embrace the ruthless version of himself that made him one of WWE’s most feared competitors.

Cody Rhodes has built his career around perseverance and resilience, but Orton’s warning shows just how dangerous this matchup could become once they step into the ring.

WrestleMania often brings career-defining moments, and for Randy Orton, this opportunity could reshape the history books if he succeeds in capturing his 15th world championship.
