He's kind of done it recently, but I loved "Insecure Orton" that we saw at Survivor Series.
I'd love for him to be constantly worried about what people thought of him and suffer from cripplingly low self-worth.

Little Mexican flags on ring posts. Worked for ADR... Just have Orton and Del Rio switch gimmicks to make both of them more interesting. Alberto "the Viper" Del Rio and Randy Orton, Mexican aristocrat. |

Alberto "the Viper" Del Rio and Randy Orton, Mexican aristocrat. Alberto "The Viper" Del Rio? So we get the charisma of Del Rio with Orton's personality? I think we just found a way to make Raw's ratings flatline. Quick, somebody call Dixie Carter! |

A personality transplant. Have him switch personalities with the host of Book TV or something. He would be less boring...maybe. Give him a wacky catchphrase to say. That could help. Make him do embarrassing things would be funny. Change his look. Make him come out in a cow costume or something...that would get a few chuckles from me. Of course the one way to make entertaining is if he would be on the losing end of a career match.
That would be the loudest reaction he would get from me...lol

I think a (small) step back in the right direction would be to bring back the colourful tights he used to wear around '03-'05. He's been better this year with the two tone designs, but it's all still mainly black and kind of drab. Outside of completely superficial things like that, I'd like to see him be a little more animated beyond his crappy psycho stuff. Add a little comedy element to his character so he's not such a one note arrogant heel. He seemed a little better with that a few years back during his SmackDown run. Also he needs to grow his hair back out. I like that he seems to be a bit more cocky and arrogant in his demeanor nowadays, but It's a bit awkward to watch him cut promos the way he does with his current look. It's like WWE realized that the "Apex Predator" doesn't fit too well in this storyline, so they've dialed it back a bit and had Orton act more like a "normal" person. But he still looks like the psychotic serial rapist, so it just comes off really weird. Like Jericho said, a heel turn should change the guy's appearance. Orton should grow like a mustache and get a Macklemore hairstyle while wearing Triple H style Biker shorts and MMA gloves. And he also comes to the ring in a cape. He could monotonously "sing" his entrance music Shatner style. |

His legend killer gimmick would be an improvement
I hate the creepy boring "viper" character.

I'm generally not an Orton fan, but I actually kind of like current primadonna Orton. I think they should go even more over the top with it and have him be an all out diva, refusing to defend the title unless it's on his terms, demanding his own locker room etc.
And yeah, revert back to the Legend Killer gimmick instead of "guy who thinks he's a snake" gimmick.

And give him a damn suit. The "face of the WWE" walking around in a shirt and trunks just isn't a good look. |

Have good matches like he did Monday rather than the awful performances he's treated us to since Summerslam.
Orton was interesting in that rumble advert, so more segments like that where he thinks every last thing about him is interesting, which isn't much different to RNN Orton.
Then go for complete delusion, he started as the legend killer so now he's the first unified champion it should be a case of mission accomplished, in his mind he's eclipsed all the legends and is the greatest of all the times. In theory it's not that much different to now but at the moment it doesn't sound like he believes it himself which makes it sound hollow.
There are many different ways to go but in my mind he should sports style annotated videos showing why his DDT is better that Jake's because he was smart enough to use the ropes for leverage.
tl:dr - He was interesting in his RNN news and Legend Killer phases so adopt the best parts of those.

I never got why they haven't made the most of his looks. Every girl, gay and a couple of apparently straight friends of mine over the years have all expressed how hot he is. In an age of image and glamour and looks and all that - it's odd how how 'attractiveness' has never bee exploited. He should be in magazines and in the media promoted as the "man you hate but your girlfriend loves"
Similar to a HBK/Rude gimmick. Okay he lacks in ring ability but he's also genuinely good looking and would probably succeed in that gimmick which has been used successfully on a number of different guys over the years, many with complete butter-faces

Give him a late 90's MTV VJ gimmick and watch the money pile up.

Taking a quote completely out of context does you no credit. I was clearly comparing him to the likes of HBK as would have been seen had you not just quoted half a sentence and from that tried to extrapolate my entire point.
