We knew that former WWE champ Randy Orton, absent from WWE television since Raw on June 15 where he lost a non-descript match to Kane on the Money in the Bank fallout show, was on vacation.
Now we know a little more about what The Viper had planned for the trip to Bora Bora with his girlfriend Kim Marie Kessler:

This will be Orton’s second marriage. Both Orton and Kessler have children from previous relationships, he a daughter and she three boys. No word on a wedding date or plans, but congrats to the happy couple from the whole community at cSs.
Now, on the wrestling/sports entertainment side of things, most outlets (including our Rumor Roundup) put Randy back on WWE television tonight. It will be interesting to see what use Creative has for him; he’s been adrift since turning on The Authority late last year at the height of the “RKO Out of Nowhere” Vine craze, then disappearing to film a movie and nurse an injury.
If the third generation Superstar has more time off coming for a wedding and honeymoon in the not-too-distant future, it’s worth wondering if he’ll be given much of import to do. Based on how he was booked before this latest vacation, it’s likely he’ll be returning to the state he was in prior to winning the MitB briefcase back in 2013 and becoming the first Authority-picked World champion – as a big-name to feed to guys for whom they do have plans.
Something with current Mr. Money in the Bank Sheamus is pretty much set-up for Orton and would most likely go just that way. We’ll start to find out tonight.
Send you well-wishes to the happy couple, and/or talk about The Viper’s return below, Cagesiders!
