I think Randy Orton is awesome.
I know he may be a dick out of character as well but he does does his in-ring job very well. He sells everything awesomely and integrates alot of psychology into his matches. Easily one of the most convincing workers in WWE at the moment.

Agreed.
And I think people make a much bigger deal out of this whole 'rest hold' business than it really is. |

I loved his first heel run, back when he was doing the RNN vignettes when he was hurt, and than his time in Evolution, as the legend killer. His feud with Foley was awesome, and I thought he was such a good heel, but as soon as he turned face, I stopped liking him so much. Since then it's been hard to become a fan of him as he really hasn't done much outside of his feud with DX.

Actually, yeah it is. If any of the SS should have gotten a big singles push it should have been Johnny. But whatever.

Not by much, and my comparison stands. Dykstra sucks. He is a bland, no charisma, not much talent, paper cut out of nearly every other OVW mold.

When I saw referee Jack Doane officiating the match, I was so glad they changed Kenny's name. I don't think I would have been able to follow JR and the King's fast paced play-by-play if there were two Doanes of non-relation (aka the WWE's worst nightmare) in the ring at once. I would have constantly been asking myself "Wait, are they related?" and "Is that guy the other guy's dad?" and I would have missed the otherwise classic Lashley/Kenny barn burner.

I use to be a huge mark, but that has died down a little and been replaced with Edge.

No he's not. Edge is better then Orton in every aspect of wrestling.
Orton wishes he was as good as Edge as does the WWE. |

I still enjoy Orton, but i feel his matches can be more intense and blood rushing. Matches like The Rock, Mick Foley, and SCSA. There was never really a "dull" moment except for those headlocks that turned into elbows and then the heel clotheslining the face. If Randy can keep his style, but add some of that above and more out-the-ring psychology, then he's a hall of famer. Trust me. He's got the look, the charisma, and fanbase, just DO NOT be an HBK backstage and i'm good.
Im not going to lie, when he's in that "edge" position (when edge slides in the ring and lays down) about to do the RKO, that is the sweetest shit ever. Period. Last edited by Johnny Vegas; 02-06-2007 at 09:49 PM. |

Yeah, I thought the Spirit Squad was funny. Their mannerisms, over-enthusiasm, retarded cheers...even more specifically, the Karate Kid spot that Johnny did at whatever PPV it was when they headlined against DX. It was funny to me.

Orton has something, but he's just not there yet. Seriously. Especially with HHH and Edge in the same roster as far as being a top heel goes.
And I think Kenny's got something too. I see a (and it kinda hurts me to say it) Owen Hart type in him. I just don't like how he's put out like he's the top of the SS, even while it was going. Just take it easy with him and please, push the other guys. |

Randy orton has fallen from grace. Even if they push him hard now it will be hard to make him as big of a star as could have been in 2004.
Anyone who says he is the "future of this business" is just listening to the bullshit he says about himself on tv. He could have been, but he isn't now. He's been the "future" for nearly 4 years. If you ask me, that future has already passed. |
