I see people on here saying things like: "Well, in reality, this kick is devastating." Yeah, well wrestling ain't real. and in KAYFABE, people kick out of a piledriver through a table to the concrete floor at 2. We can't have reality and kayfabe in wrestling at the same time, it looks terrible. The kick does exactly that.

Yeah, the kick is getting tiresome.
But this is coming from someone who finds Randy completely blah.

I mark for Orton kicking people in the head. I think it's great!
Better than flippy flopping around the ring with zero psychology.

They're getting over the soccer kick, if he uses it every week on guys they need to use it loses it's effect when they turn back up straight away. That's why he's using it on guys they can take off tv for a while.

I'm not tired of it, because i think theyve done a good job building it up. For the first time in a LONG time, the E have me believing that Cena's title reign is in big trouble at the next PPV.

Remember in the Peanuts comic strip/cartoon how mean-spirited Lucy would beg Charlie Brown to kick a field goal, only to pull the ball away at the last second? Then she'd berate him as a putz.
Suppose the rookie Cody Rhodes dared Randy Orton to punt his lights out and "assumed the position"...sweeping the Legend Killer's leg causing Orton to fall awkwardly.
Then fans and commentators alike LOL at Randy Orton looking dazed and confused after falling for the old trick, as Cody puts the boots to him in earnest, shouting "Here's one for your mamma!" Orton gets owned, and instant credibilty for the new kid on the block.
Seriously, I should write this stuff for a living.

This thread should be entitled
ANYONE ELSE TIRED OF SEEING RANDY KICK PEOPLE IN THE HEAD BADLY
Cause he sucks at it.

I think it's a good gimmick. I like it.
I'd like if he changed it up a little, though: Like try to piledrive someone on the concrete after moving the pads.

I wouldn't mind it so much if they actually LOOKED LIKE THEY HURT.
I mean, obviously, you can't kick a guy in the head full throttle, but, the camera guys aren't doing any favors by blatantly showing he just grazes the guy's right (or left) ear

I love anything that allows orton to stalk his prey, and him acting like a distracted kitten in order to distract john cena was gold, hell anything orton does is gold in my book!!

If you're going to do a concussion issuing gimmick, do it right with somebody who actually knows how to throw a believable kick.

They're jumping through hoops, desperately trying to make the Ortard look like some maniacal badass.
It's cheap heat, sure people are going to boo when Randy Orton kicks some AARP member in the head, that's because if he didn't do that the crowds would be totally indifferent towards him. He has no personality or talent. His finishing move is a cheap knockoff diamond cutter. He has the face of a lobotomy patient.

We can't have reality and kayfabe in wrestling at the same time, it looks terrible. The kick does exactly that. I agree with that. A guy gets put through seven flaming tables and thumbtacks and comes back the next night with a bandage on his forehead. Orton kicks someone and thier brains explode out thier ear. It's inconsistant. At least Flexy Lexy had a metal rod in his arm to explain the "Forearm of Doom". Hell even Randy's dad had his ubiquitous cast.

And Regal had his brass knuckles, and the last person to get a kayfabed concussion in the WWE that i know of before we got this crap (which, ironically, was Randy Orton) had his head dropkicked into the ringpost at point blank range
