I know certain problems require this type of thing, but I doubt it's as prevalent as it was back in the day. Didn't JR blog about wrestlers spending more time with their mobile devices, listening to music, etc than actually talking to and learning from each other?

I remember reading that Orton was for a while, sticking up for people when management complained etc. One that stuck out to me is someone complaining because Umaga wore black white and red tights, and those are "Triple H's colours", so they complained and Orton stuck up for him.
Could've been Newz though.

I'm not sure about the Umaga story (and if it's true the person bitching was stupid, because lots of guys wear red/black/white) but he DID take the fall for Eugene that one time when Eugene was messed up on somas and trashed a hotel room. Orton knew he wouldn't get much punishment (they just sent him home) but Eugene would get fired so he said he did it.

But it came off very Newzy like something that started here as a joke that was picked up by the less reputable dirt sheets.

Honestly, there probably is not a "leader". I'd figure it's just everyone looking out for each other. Then who gets to be the judge in wrestlers court? Hornswoggle?

But it came off very Newzy like something that started here as a joke that was picked up by the less reputable dirt sheets. I remember the report. The story was Umaga was in his ring gear and HBK called him out for "stealing Triple H's colors" and going into full mid 90's snit-mode. Story went that Orton told him to stick the tantrum up his ass and Umaga changed to different ring gear.
