For months now Orton's been dwindling on RAW. Without a proper program to work with his character has undoubtedly suffered. All the WWE could give him was the same material, week in, week out. He'd get about 10 minutes air-time where he'd come out, RKO some peeps and leave. That would be that. The only other time we'd see him on RAW would maybe be one of those awfully stale backstage promos he does in the locker room with Matthews where after he's finished he'll glare off into nothingness looking proud of what he's just said. This shit got so repetitive it had me - one of the biggest Orton fans on the board - bored shitless.
Now it looks like WWE have finally given the guy a proper feud and HEY WHAT D'YOU KNOW he's interesting again. They've given his character his 'edge' back and what he did on RAW was some of the most compelling stuff I've seen in months. What separates him from about 95% of the roster really shone through here. By simply changing his facial expression he could get a different reaction out of the crowd. That, that right there, is what every wrestler in the business wants. He doesn't even have to speak. He can just look at the crowd and they'll start going apeshit. He fits the role of Nexus-destroyer a lot better than Cena and needless to say, this feud has bags and bags of potential. Will the Corre get involved? Who knows.
2011 looks like a good year for Randy Orton.
P.S if you disagree, present a proper argument, not 'Blandy Boreton can only do chinlocks and hump the mat, derp'.
