And Raw sucked Monday. WWE have just killed off Orton as a credible top heel by dropping what was working for him (vicious, devious heel) and turning him into a Jerico lite with his therapist and lawyers backing him up.

And Micky Rouke vs Jerico at WM? Why? And why have him announce it in a "i'm doing a wrestling angle" kind of way? stupid stupid stupid

and here comes shane to save the day. might need to get in the gym there shane-o as that's some of the worst offense ive seen outside a Great Khali match and he was blown up after about 4 hits

Again WWE will have to rely on Taker, HBK, and Edge for their good matches at Mania.

Orton is still that heel, his smugness and lack of sincerity in the promo was there to see.

but its not the viscious, unappologetic heel that he's been portraying for the last year or so. it's the cringing, cowardly heel that jerico has been doing. it's killed his charater as a credible threat and on top of that he's gonna get his ass handed to him by shane mcmahon of all people.

Orton's character is now in serious limbo like Jericho's, as Roofaldo said.

"As the father of a newborn", for instance, yet the other week he was knobbing that bint Kane was after. I think they are trying to latch on to the current trend of Sports Stars and Celebs being diagnosed with illnesses such as Bi-Polar, though, and the IED excuse fits in nicely with his entrance music.

I rarely keep abreast of behind the scenes with the WWE anymore, does anyone know what the craic is with Harry Smith? I'd have thought he and TJ Wilson would've been an ideal, if obvious, team to fude with Orton's 'Legacy' boys, hopefully to allow Orton to maintain main event status, whilst also nurturing the Orton Lites in the lower card with Promos and vignettes and perhaps the odd six man tag/interference.

To me, Orton has the potential to be one of the best heels in WWE history. He is naturally cocky, arrogant and charismatic.
