Saw this in the Randy News Thread: I was taking a break from watching wrestling at this point. I didn't get to see these, but now that I did, I think they are great. I think I like this version of Orton better. A heel who thinks the fans likes him. He also spoke clearley without the pauses, using his real southern voice, and the longer than normal hair made him look like a confident and unknowingly cocky kid. The segments were great. I hope they bring this kind of character back somehow, doesn't need to be Orton.

That was the only point in time that I enjoyed Orton. If he could return to that, I would LOVE him as champion.

Damn, I never realized he covered up an accent.

Man, what an unfortunate hairdo for Shawn in one of these RNN videos.
And why can't he talk like that now? You know, like a normal human being?

I remember waiting for these videos the same way I did the Sean O'Haire promos. Good memories...

Yeah these along with the Sean O'Haire promos were less than a year apart. A good time period for video promos in WWE. They also had the Nathan Jones ones that I thought were good and actually got me interested in him before his debut. I found a bunch of them on youtube and thought I'd share the RNN ones in the Randy Orton News thread.

I absolutely love JR's reaction to the one that was at Survivor Series 02.
"Not now...NOT NOW!!"

Randy was entertaining back then.
He's just not credible as the uber-serious-killer-heel, which I think is a dull character anyway.

Just have him start RKO'ing random heels.
That'll make people notice.

Dear Randy Orton fan-
I wanted to thank you again for your support as I continue on the long road back from my shoulder injury. Although I did recently suffer a setback -- as my shoulder sustained some minor chafing, thanks to a faulty arm sling -- I am still planning on returning sooner, rather than later, so I can entertain you like only a third-generation WWE Superstar can.
Thanks again, Randy Orton
i sure am glad I saved this email
