I'm still an Orton fan from that IC run, even though he's been a disappointment ever since.

It boggles my mind to see how badly they screwed up on him. He was easily the hottest heel in the company at that time |

He was easily the hottest heel in the company at that time I still say a big problem was that Orton never got his comeuppance during that heel run. No face ever just shut him up. He never took the beating till after he won the WHC and that turned him face. |

I just busted out laughing thinking of him tripping as he said, 'look at greatness'
Sorry, go back to your regularly scheduled programming.

He can do promos- look no further than the Raw before he won the WHC and his ' what did you do at 24' thing? It just seems like he needs to follow his scripting pretty well to the tee as he seems uncomfortable speaking extemporaneously

Why did he stop to stare at that blonde girl for a moment?

I remember this, this is when Orton was actually interesting.

The best part of that was the end for two reasons:
1.) He stopped talking.
2.) I got to hear some of his awesome Evolution music.
He basically just said the same things over and over again. Ok, were looking at greatness, blah, blah, blah.

I have definitely become an Orton fan. He is a tremendous heel. His smugness puts him over the top IMO.

Why did he stop to stare at that blonde girl for a moment? 1) She was pretty good looking. 2) I thought it was a nice touch that made him look a little bit more heelish. |

To each his own. That was okay, but nothing special, and MILES away from what he does nowadays. The guy with the top belt should inject (no pun intended) the fans with intensity, not put 'em to sleep with a patented rest hold. |

As I noted earlier, this promo was just ok, but I enjoyed his run. It was the right guy and the right title at the right time. I thought he did elevate the belt, but since then it has slipped back although Jeff Hardy is doing well with it now.
