I haven't seen much of Orton since turning but read that he has been using less rest holds since turning (less chinlocks), is this true?

From what I've seen yes.

Large usage of rest holds is a heel thing to do anyway, sucks the momentum out of the match, heels arent known for fast paced wrestling, so its probably true.

I remember him saying a few years ago in a radio interview with The UK Sun, the chinlocks piss people off, so why would he stop using them? Wouldn't he use them more?
Him stopping now makes sense and shows he is a true student of psychology. He may be one of my least favorite wrestlers right now but damn, he knows his stuff.

Less chin locks and he picked up the pace in the ring. This face turn is leagues better than his turn in 2004. Why? They didn't change much. And Orton is a hell of a performer compared to back then. His story telling through his facial expressions are so much better now than they were. He's my favorite character on WWE TV at the moment next to Punk.

He can say more in a few facial expressions than a lot of guys can with a 5minute promo. He's really intriguing, and the best part is, they didnt really "turn" him, they just changed his opponents. |

That to me is why he is one of the best in the business and one of my favorites probably of all time. |
