Better Overall Wrestler: Randy Orton vs Edge

[DOPEdweebz]

Edges "hug" was WOAT minus when he did it in TLC matches and the fire table spot vs Foley.

If Cena is Hogan, Orton is Savage.

i agree with this but edge was right there for a long time

Edge was not accepted as a legit main event act

once given the opportunity, he remained in the main event until he retired. guess everyone who didnt see him as main event material was wrong

I know this is the typical IWC talking point but the plan was always for Randy to be champion. That was the goal of Evolution. His development was faster than anyone elses. No point i holding him down for no reason

orton was destined (no pun) to be a world champion. however by the time summerslam 04 occured he wasnt ready. but given he was younger than brock and we all know how petty the wwe can be, they gave orton the title simply because of his age. this was proven when hhh won the belt 4 weeks later

its crazy that both edge and orton were nothing more than transitional champions the first time they held the belt. both should've been given a little more time to show and prove imo

He was spot monkeying it up in the tag team scene which is why he stayed hurt when it mattered

im not holding that against him. he did it to entertain the fans and he was apart one of the greatest era's in tag team wrestling. dont be fickle now

He was in a comedy tag team

a comedy tag team that bashed the brains in of every babyface tag team. yeah, thats hilarious

it was heel vs heel, but they chose to cheer edge

Thanks to them rubs from Eddie, Angle, Benoit, Hogan

i guess we're gonna pretend having great matches with those wrestlers is a bad thing now

you keep bringing up rubs against edge like its a bad thing. how tf you think stars get made?

and compared the rubs orton got, nigga please

the live sex gimmick? You dont think niggas really tuned in to see fucking EDGE did you?

they tuned in to see a new wwe champion after seeing cena overcame the odds for 9 months. people were starting to grow tired of cena. it was a breath of fresh air

the idea of sex on live tv added to the intrigue

it was the perfect storm

Never liked edge. Nigga can't wrestle imo. Randy has put on some dope matches and played a good heel. Edge will always be a heel cause he sucks like HHH and Cena. They just have faces you wanna punch.

Edge never seemed believable to me as a main guy after E&C broke up, the fact that he has like 9 championships or something like that is insane to me.

By far Edge is a better wrestler then Randy.. if the neck injury didn't cut his career short we would still be getting classic matches from him
