I don't think it's that they want to get rid of him, as much as it may be does Orton even want to stay.
I mean, the guy has always been second place to Cena but now WWE is putting Punk and Sheamus above him. He hasn't been booked in a meaningful feud this year and floats around at the mid card level. So, IMO, Orton is only failing these tests because he simply doesn't care. Also, I doubt he will ever get a strike 3, as WWE still needs him to balance out the starpower between both shows. So, I don't think WWE will ever flat out release him. I just think Orton will quit, has a family and likely is financially set, I'm assuming he doesn't need WWE as much as they need him, at the moment.
