MHizzle85 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 20, 2009 -> 10:31 AM) That last segment was fantastic last night. Even the Orton haters have to admit that he has gotten better on the mic. Agreed. Secretly i've become an Orton fan. He's finally come into his own. The only problem with the last segment last night that it seemed to be all about the McMahons again. RAW's 2 top heels might of lost steam due to this, IMO.

The Critic Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Orton is much more interesting on the mic lately, I have to admit, although I'm not too keen on him leading the Legacy faction. It doesn't help him and it doesn't elevate DiBiase or Rhodes. It could (and still can) be a much more effective vehicle for a batch of midcarders to get over. Manu, Snuka, Natalya Neidhart, DH Smith, Mike Rotundo's kid (can't remember his name, he's down in Florida right now) - they could all be helped by the rub a heel stable could provide. DiBiase seemed like he was capable of handling the mouthpiece role. Orton doesn't need them, and they really don't need him either. He could continue using them for numbers or sneak attacks, but not as underlings (which they look like right now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His exile from the legacy faction wasnt as much storyline as it was Ortons true feelings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan562004 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I'm a long time wrestling fan, basically as long as I can remember, and I just don't see it in Orton. I think it's contrived and he lacks charisma. I think a lot of it to me was he was overpushed. That's the think with wrestling though, not everyone is going to see it in the top guys, Vince's opinoin is worth more than mine and obviously Orton seems to draw, so I'm in the minority.

nitetrain8601 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I prefer Orton as well when he had that smirk. The brooding thing blows. The legacy idea is pretty cool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's one thing I know about the WWE, Wrestlemania plans always change. I know this has been the plan for awhile & I wouldn't doubt it, it just makes too much sense for Orton to get a huge push right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orton wins Rumble, we find out Steph was in on the entire thing. Vince comes back next night on Raw to fire Orton. Orton reminds him that since he won the Rumble he has to get his shot before that can happen. So Vince starts to back Cena. We get a good couple of months of Cena/Orton build up with the McMahons in each corner. WM25 rolls around, Vince pulls the swerve. Orton wins the strap, SuperCena's pissed. It can then potentially setup a Cena/Vince feud if need be. The Mr. McMahon character CAN'T be a face, just can't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
