Nothing eats the orca whale besides, big Great White Sharks and humans
Young Killer Whales are theoretically hunted by large sharks, although this is considered unlikely and has never been witnessed. As adults, it is theorized that Great White Sharks may try to "sneak-attack" stray adult specimens. This, again, is theoretical, as it has never been witnessed, and Killer Whale almost never 'stray' from their family pods. Killer Whales are also far larger then even a very large Great White's normal prey size.

Man has hunted whales in general and killed the orca specifically (though not usually) since before recorded history. Native peoples hunted many whale species (including the orca) for substistance. These early peoples ate the animals and made things from them to sustain themselves. In a parting note, the orca has been know to perform acts of cannibalism. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on the orca.

Great White sharks and humans kill orcas,
Killer whales have no natural enemies. In their part of the animal spectrum, they are in the top part of the food chain.

naturally, nothing: great white sharks would rather flee and swim across oceans (LITERALLY!!) then face an orca. unnaturally, the human.
