During a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Bully Ray discussed Randy Orton possibly returning to WWE at Elimination Chamber: Toronto to exact revenge on Kevin Owens.

Ray said, "If Randy Orton gets involved in a match between Kevin and Sami in Canada, what kind of reaction is that going to get? You think Canadian wrestling fans are going to be pissed off that Randy took Kevin out of the match?"

He continued, "Imagine Kevin is beating the s**t out of Sami with a chair on the floor right, and enough is enough and somebody has to do something about it … he's about to give him the package piledriver on the announce table, Randy Orton's music hits. Randy will get the pop for making that save, but you have to set it up the right way, that people won't be mad that Randy's coming in on a Canadian."

Donovan Dijak is willing to accept a job anywhere; he simply wants to ensure it's a company that genuinely wants his presence.

Since departing from WWE last summer, Dijak has been active in the independent circuit as well as in MLW, and he spoke with “WhatCulture Wrestling” about the potential of joining AEW or TNA Wrestling.

Dijak said, "Everything is a possibility. I'm not gonna lobby hard for anything or say that nothing is a possibility. Everything is open. I want to go to a place where they want to have me, that's it. I learned the hard way through my time in WWE that if they don't see you the way that you see yourself, you need to find a place that does. That's okay, I'm not angry about that, I don't hold that against anyone. If some indie company looks me and says, oh, that's not the guy for us, then I don't want to work for that indie company and that's okay. Not everybody has to love me."

He continued, "I view myself in a very particular light and there are other companies that I work with, MLW is a very good one that also views me in a similar light. Those are the companies that I want to collaborate with. So, if AEW opens that door — I've made it very clear to them, TNA, WWE, I am completely open to working with you if you are interested in working with me in the same capacity that I would like to be worked with. That's how I view everything, that's what I want out of my career at this point and I think that I can take all of these companies to the next level. That's my goal."

Dijak will compete at MLW Battle Riot VII.
