After 20 years of Orton, what was your favorite feud for him?
He's had so many, what was his absolute best?

Foley. The feud established the first main gimmick he had and their match at Backlash made him a star. If Foley hadn’t made Orton that night, I don’t know how long his WWE career would have gone on for but it sure as hell wouldn’t have been twenty years.

Apart from Foley, the Feud with Christian. It was good, but it would have been one of the all time greatest if Randy was the heel in that feud.

Honestly? The angle/feud with HHH and the McMahons leading up to WM25. Match was trash but I really enjoyed the build up towards it.

Foley because without that he wouldn’t have really been seen in the fans eyes as a potential world champion later in the year. And as some others have said, the feud with Christian was all kinds of good fun. Two pros having a good wrestling match. Imagine that.

Foley easily.
Besides that, I actually enjoyed the Wyatt Family angle and even the silliness of The Fiend feud till he burned him alive. I always thought Orton should've worn that face mask longer.
His feud with Edge last year was good too.

He had six championship matches with Christian, four of them on PPV, and every single one of them was a 4+ star banger. I even agree with the storytelling, Christian was too good as whiny heel.
The 2005 feud with Undertaker was also doing a lot for Randy. And while the payoff match was shit, the Wyatt feud was fun.

It has to be the Foley fued. That was his 1st fued I saw as as a fan & it totally elevated him to another level. I enjoyed the fued with Triple H where he punted Vince & RKO’d Steph. He was classic evil heel Orton for that! A possible upcoming fued with Riddle could be a classic if done right with Riddle as the heel.

His feud with pants, even though it's been extremely one sided in Randy's favor.

Randy Orton vs. Wade Barrett was another good one.

Randy Orton vs. Wade Barrett was another good one. Remember when they fought in an elevator? ![](https://i.imgur.com/uLqnk.gif)

I remember the Christian feud getting a lot of criticism for being too one-sided because Christian never beat Orton clean, or even sort of clean. For me, Christian winning the World title by DQ is an all time favorite title change.

Aside from the Foley feud, Orton's feud with Undertaker.
