That makes him a babyface. Austin wasn't a heel because he was a disruptive malcontent -- he was a babyface because the crowd loved him. Orton can remain the same character forever and be positioned as a babyface or a heel -- it just depends on whether or not the fans want to cheer him or boo him.
Smiling and kissing babies' heads because "that's what faces do" is what kills a lot of guys' momentum a lot of the time.
