...that Dusty Rhodes was one of the victims in Orton's original head-punting spree a couple years ago.
And that he had a brief feud with Cody afterward as Cody sought revenge.
And now Legacy just makes no sense to me, and I can't believe I forgot that so quickly, and I'm frightened to think that maybe Vince's Men in Black neuralizer ("flashy thing") may actually work on me, and I'm worried about what else I've forgotten if that's the case.
Dang it.

Orton punted Ted and put him out of commission a scant month or two before he...joined Orton.

Not only that, but Orton and Edge had been rivals for the IC title in 2004, and then teamed up as Rated RKO in 2006.
Stuff like this is common in wrestling; it's believed that once three months pass, nobody will remember most of the storylines, feuds, or characters that happened.

In 2005, Ashley's boobs were very large. Then, in 2008, they were still very large.

If so, he was already a member. As for Cody, he turned heel and said he was better than his dad ever was so it washed away that feud. |

Yeah, I know that, but we're talking about the attempted murder/crippling (at least that was how they portrayed it at the time, pretty much) of a guy's dad. And now supposedly it's all water under the bridge and Randy is Cody's mentor? Argh. I'm sure the rest of you already had this particular brain aneurysm a long time ago. Sorry. |

Another one of those quirks of wrestling, I guess. Was that after the CM Punk/Orton match on RAW? If so, he was already a member. No. Manu and Sim Snuka had recruited DiBiase to fight against Orton and Rhodes, only for Ted to swerve them and join up with Orton and Rhodes, thus forming Legacy as we know it. In hindsight, he probably made the right call. |

Well,keep in mind that storyline happened what, in 2007? After that, Cody won the tag belts with Holly, then turned heel and remained champion...so it does sort of add up, in a way. Some wrestlers after a heel turn tend to be like, "Hey, sorry I went after you after trying to kill my dad? We best buds now?" I think the Divas tag matches between 2003 and 2006 serve as the best plausible examples. |

I could of swore that when Goldust confronted him backstage around the time of the IC Title DVD, he mentioned that to Cody, but Cody said Orton had more to teach and offer him than Goldust or Dusty ever did.

Fair enough, I guess. Still not terribly believable for me.

Cena and Carlito have teamed together. a few years ago Carlito stabbed Cena. Actually, I think that was Jesus (Carlito's then bodyguard) that stabbed Cena at a nightclub, not Carlito. But yeah, like when Matt Hardy turned on Jeff and helped Edge retain his title, yet we were somehow suppose to forget that Edge stole Lita from Matt (both kayfabe and in real life). |

If Matt Hardy can put it past him, why can't we?  In kayfabe, though, I don't think Matt ever had any pretense of liking Edge, he just hated Jeff's success more. |

I just look upon this as strengthening their motivation for their current actions.
For instance, *even though* Orton attacked Dusty, Cody still joined up with him. This means that in Cody's mind, Orton is more valuable to him than his relationship with Dusty, making Orton look more important.
Even though Edge stole Lita, Matt's hatred for Jeff meant he was able to cast aside his feelings for Edge etc...

HHH got uber-pissed at Orton for punting Vince.
The same Vince that HHH and HBK tortured and brutalized as DX for a year and a half.
