Hey guys, this is Denise Salcedo with the world's strongest man, Mark Henry, and welcome to the

Busted Open podcast. To begin the show, Mark and I talk about the return of Randy Orton and how he

fits into the WWE title picture. This is the busted open podcast. Do we want to kick things off with

Randy making his return, confronting Cody Rhodes as well as kind of

mixing in Cody Rhodes with Drew McIntyre because there's a lot there in terms of what the

prospects are going to look like for Cody Rhodes, given that, hey, we're officially getting

into, you know, Royal Rumble season. This is, you know, things are going to get very important.

And then from there, WrestleMania is going to hit us like a big fish pretty soon.

It's going to happen.

And like, that's it.

We had Randy return.

He's been gone for what feels like forever, even though it's probably just a couple of months.

But he's back.

Tells Cody Rhodes that he's interested in the title.

This is not the first.

This is not the second time he has said that.

So he's clearly made his case that he wants that title.

And out of respect for Cody Rhodes, he's letting him know beforehand.

But at the exact same time, we are working into a match, three stages of hell,

that we are going to be seeing next week in Berlin on Smackdown with Drew McIntyre versus Cody Rhodes.

So start wherever you want.

What are you thinking in regards to the storyline?
