There has been an ongoing debate on social media that compares WWE Superstar Randy Orton and young AEW star Daniel Garcia. Orton started his career at the tender age of 21 at Ohio Valley Wrestling and had his first televised victory on SmackDown against Hardcore Holly at 22. Then, two years later, he became the youngest World Heavyweight Champion by defeating Chris Benoit at SummerSlam 2004. Meanwhile, Garcia embarked on his journey at 20 with a couple of appearances on WWE NXT and 205 Live. He made his AEW debut in 2020 and still wrestles there while being the Pro Wrestling Guerilla World Champion. The constant comparisons between Orton and Garcia have been rampant over the past few months. A user finally decided to make a thread about it on Twitter.

George@CromulentFellowDaniel Garcia is simultaneously the future of the business, while being an integral, must watch part in the here and now. While a very different type of wrestler, his rise is reminding me a lot Randy Orton in 2004. Really hope it’s him vs. @IAmJericho at #AEWAllOut. twitter.com/garciawrestlin…Daniel Garcia@GarciaWrestlingMy match on Wednesday was the kind of match that I always dreamt of having when I was a kid. I hope there’s a kid somewhere that watched it and wants to have one like that.8414633My match on Wednesday was the kind of match that I always dreamt of having when I was a kid.

Really hope it’s him vs. @IAmJericho at #AEWAllOut. twitter.com/garciawrestlin… The Orton-Garcia comparisons might be coming since both emerged at the peak of their careers at a young age. The AEW star has been rising due to his technical skills, and it will be interesting to see if it will result in a world title reign. Daniel Garcia is in conflict with Randy Orton s former opponents Last week on AEW Dynamite, Daniel Garcia wrestled Randy Orton's former rival, Bryan Danielson, in a 2-out-of-3-falls match. The young star lost after tapping out to Danielson's LeBell Lock. Then, in what should've been a show of respect between the two, Chris Jericho interrupted by blindsiding the American Dragon. Surprisingly, the Dragon Slayer shoved the JAS leader away from Danielson. All Elite Wrestling@AEWThe disrespect shown by Jericho causes Garcia to intervene; is there dissension growing within the #JerichoAppreciationSociety? It’s #AEWDynamite LIVE on TBS!1892363The disrespect shown by Jericho causes Garcia to intervene; is there dissension growing within the #JerichoAppreciationSociety? It’s #AEWDynamite LIVE on TBS! https://t.co/7SxeWD7yf6 As a result, Jericho was infuriated and asked Garcia for a man-to-man conversation on this Wednesday's Dynamite. With dissension seemingly brewing within JAS, it will be interesting to see what happens next week in the upcoming segment. What are your thoughts on the Randy Orton-Daniel Garcia comparisons?
