Alright folks, now I know a lot of people on this forum are critical of the reasons behind Randy Orton's face turn, but I feel it was a complete and utter accident.
As we all saw, the weeks and months before Wrestlemania 26, it was clear that they had given up on the Legacy and that no matter what happened, they were going to split the group up.
Towards the end of last year, we saw Ted Dibiase and Cody Rhodes being 'bullied' by Orton, and Orton was clearly the leader and acting in very much a heelish way. The writers were trying there best to have the crowd be sympathetic towards Rhodes and more specifically Dibiase (remember the Raw when he was in a match with Orton and was ordered to stand and take a beating).
This line of thought clearly backfired when the writers seen how little sympathy we had for Rhodes and Dibiase, and that, ironically Orton was out popping many other of the so called faces on Raw.
Do you think creative had always planned this face turn for Orton? or did they stumble upon it whilst trying to make him even more heelish?
