WWE legend Randy Orton stunned everybody by returning at Survivor Series in seemingly better shape than ever before.
The 14-time world champion has been out of action for 18 months after undergoing back injury.
Speculation mounted during his absence from the ring over whether his health battles would lead to his retirement.
But The Viper silenced those doubters as he made his long-awaited comeback to help Cody Rhodes, Sami Zayn, Seth Rollins and Jey Uso to beat The Judgement Day and Drew McIntyre in the brutal War Games match at Survivor Series.
The 43-year-old, who received an insane pop from the crowd in attendance, looked in incredibly ripped shape as he emerged for the battle.
And Orton then appeared to signal that he would be wrestling in WWE for another decade prior to him leaving the arena – after CM Punk had shockingly made his own return.
The star, who is undoubtedly a future hall of famer, looked like he had never been away – especially when he hit an incredible RKO on JD McDonagh as his rival fell from the top of the cage.
And fans quickly took to social media to praise just how good he looked physically as they rejoiced in his return.
A fan posted on social media: “Randy Orton loves this sport, glad to see The Viper back and JACKED!”
Another wrote: “Randy Orton looks like the size of two Randy Ortons now.”
