Randy Orton & Drew McIntyre Appear To Be On Track For Return By WWE SummerSlam

An update on Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre.

WrestleVotes on Fightful Select is told that an internal document that circulated earlier this month included the names of both Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre in connection with SummerSlam in August.

While both men have been sidelined since WrestleMania, sources indicate that both men appear to be on track for a return in time for the two-day event in Minneapolis.

No additional details regarding their possible returns were provided, but their inclusion on the document suggests both are at least being considered for plans as we inch closer to SummerSlam.
