Why Randy Orton is Not Connecting as WWE Champion

[Idiopathic Joker]

Orton has and will always be boring

 

[jono]

Orton ain't been over since the spring, early summer. He occasionally gets reactions but for the most part nobody gives a fuck about him.

He was literally the 4th most important person in all his feuds since winning the title. The challenger, HHH and Steph were all more important and usually more over.

Eh, I actually blame WWE creative. Orton's had some good matches lately, but his character to me just comes off as a bitch.

He acts like he's scared to wrestle Batista, he acts like he's scared to wrestle DB, he act to wrestle Cena, etc. Not to mention stuff like how he got verbally and physically sonned by Cena & HHH back in Dec at the championship ascension ceremony which left him lying in the ring looking like a little bitch as Raw went off the air.

They want fans to be connected more with Orton? Then turn him back into the kinda heel he was when he handcuffed HHH and DDT'ed Steph. Let him punt niggas upside their heads again. I know heels are often made to be cowards, but they go overboard with Orton, imo.

We need the Legend Killer gimmick back.

Would be dope to see Orton as the Legend Killer vs Sting.

R.I.P. Orton when he was at one time my favorite @sobek

Idk about everyone else but I never liked orton .

Since his debut it's jus somethin about the guy. Like, as a wrestler and as a person , I jus dont like the guy .

Kevin Nash may have did alotta bs in the biz but I would at least wanna kick it wit big cool.

Randy orton can be run over by a gang of elephants and then eaten by a hippo and I could care less .

Matter o fact ,

He prolly would deserve it

Yeah..to some degree it's creative's fault. Not everybody can pull off cowardly heel. That shit takes talent.

Orton as a kick ass, arrogant heel would have been better but it doesn't fit the role hes playing. This particular character NEEDS to be weak but they also need to have a sense of entitlement or a grandiose sense of achievement even though he cheats and gets help.

I know everybody hated dude but this is a perfect role for Miz. Jericho or Christian would also be great in this role, you need to have more charisma to make this work. Orton couldn't have pulled this off even during the "legend killer" days.

All his cowardice seems forced and not natural. Beside Orton has been booked as a badass for the last 4-5 years and people loved it. He was really fuckin over back then, this is a 180 and it's not working.

he never fucked up, creative just had nothing for him

he was slowly starting to do a lil something with that dibiase posse shit on smackdown but i think he got hurt, if he had truly gotten over creative woulda put a stop to that shit anyway

i meant senior...

why is he not mentoring these kids on how to be heels?

Randy Ortons problem is not how to play a heel, but the current role he's being given. He's just not a good "chicken" heel.

besides if anyone would mentoring its Jake the snake imo.

 

[DarkRaiden]

Orton's better than your favorite current wrestler more than likely. 99.% of the time. And who cares if he deserted really?

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

thats hilarious

Just what I was bout to say, randy career took off as the legend killer.

since then he just lost the passion.
