WWE Night of Champions 2025 predictions: Why 14 time World champion can become the King of the Ring
Cody Rhodes vs Randy Orton (Image Source: Getty) WWE 's Night of Champions 2025 shines tonight in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on one of this year's biggest matches, the King of the Ring Final with 14-time World Champion Randy Orton vs. "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes. This will be an original student-vs-mentor dynamic for the Legacy stable has since evolved into a heated, personal feud, as one with the honor of being crowned the new King and the right to headline SummerSlam for the Undisputed WWE Championship on the line. This is more than just a crown. For each man, legacy, redemption, and the claim to the top of the WWE mountain are on the line in this match. There's plenty of stake, and plenty of emotion, so expect some fireworks when these two come to cross swords. Randy Orton's experience vs Cody Rhodes' momentum: Who will take the crown? Viable, higher-pressure space is perfect for Randy Orton, a.k.a. The Viper. Having won 14 world titles in his long and illustrious career, there is always more food to be found, especially the symbolic power of a King of the Ring victory. As Orton enters this stage in his career, he is trying to cement his legacy with one last addition to his resume — king, and then he will be back in title contention. He will be calculated, methodical, and probably utilize all his experience to slow the match down, work on Rhode's frustration, and hit an RKO from out of nowhere. By contrast, Cody Rhodes has fire and momentum heading into this match. Having gone through a roller coaster of emotional wins in the tournament, Rhodes is now on the verge of that crowning moment he has sought ever since returning to WWE. Along with his relationship with the audience, the need to complete his narrative in WWE once and for all, and the eternal chase of championship gold, make him a crowd favorite to win tonight. This is more to Cody than just the shot at a title—it is a path of redemption, a matter of honor, and a battle to prove that he belongs at the top tier of this sport. Orton will no doubt play his mind games, perhaps enticing Rhodes into errors. However, Rhodes won't go down without a fight, and he has plenty of motivation to keep him going. Prediction: Redemption for Rhodes, setback for The Viper Cody Rhodes should win here, even though Randy Orton has the credentials and ruthlessness to do so as well. It is hard not to view this tournament as custom-built to propel Rhodes into the SummerSlam main event, perhaps for that blockbuster rematch with John Cena. This feels like the ideal stage to further establish Rhodes as WWE's current narrative hero.

Orton could flirt with a turn and a post-match attack on Rhodes, or a cryptic promo could suggest that things are finished between the two. Even if he comes up short for the crown, The Viper rarely leaves his battle skirmish without inflicting casualties.
