Any time a former world champ works a program for one of the "lesser" titles - much less has a run with it, or several runs with several "lesser" titles - it just never seems right.
It comes across more as "the title needs meaning" (a neverending scenario, sadly) or "he has nothing else to do" (also becoming neverending too, because there are no other companies these guys can go to like back in the olden days) more than the "oh, he can win that belt, obviously, he's got this" attitude that should be running these midcard title programs.
The Miz has somehow been one of the very few people who was on top, fell down, and found his footing as a regular IC champ. Though it took a while, but I think it got there.
Orton, though, was world champ several times and spent a lotta time in the main event. Him feuding for other belts seems.....off.

Maybe a storyline about his suspensions, and a heel tries manipulating him to go down the path and get him fired.

What CAN you do with Orton that hasn’t been done already? Extended tag team championship reign with Cena. I'm serious.

Maybe I'm being naive, but I think the next step is to seriously start talks with NJPW for a co-branded supershow in Tokyo, with the main event being a dream match between him and Okada.

I've always wanted a two day event. Day one you get Cena/Orton vs. Tanahashi/Okada, day two you get the singles matches.

I'd say team Orton and Cena up but I don't think Randy would be able to depend on that drunk.

I want him as Tag-Champ. Team him up with someone who also needs momentum

Maybe a storyline about his suspensions, and a heel tries manipulating him to go down the path and get him fired. This sounds hilarious. Orton and the manipulator are in the locker room, close up shot of them, Orton is being told "do it, Randy, come on man, for old time sakes, you know you wanna". Camera pans out to them staring at a gym bag and Orton has toilet roll in his hand.
