SOURCE: Randy Orton worked a singles match at last night’s Raw brand house show in Birmingham, England as he did a job to Rey Mysterio. WWE has been easing Orton back in the ring by letting him work tag matches as they wanted to give him a chance to work through any ring rust that may have accumulated over the past three months before putting pressure on him to work a singles match. Now it looks like WWE will let him work some singles matches on house shows before having him wrestle in singles competition on television.

SOURCE: Randy Orton is working Raw house shows on WWE’s current overseas tour. The company is being careful with Orton, easing him back in action by having him work tag team matches with Chris Jericho as his partner. The current creative plan is for Randy Orton to feud with CM Punk throughout the rest of 2008. While Orton is medically cleared to return, WWE does not want to take any chances on him re-injuring his broken right clavicle that has kept him out since June.
