Its hard to put your finger on what makes a star a star, but when I look at Orton I see that he has the ability to be on the level of Rock and Austin. Not to say that he will make as much money as those guys, but I see some of the same talents in him.

No, his work isn't main event level yet, but its getting there, his match with RVD was a huge step in the right direction IMO.

His promos have improved, and he has a presence in the ring that makes you care about him. I expect the fued with Foley will continue to speed up his progression.

Am I the only person that doesn't like orton
 

Not because he is a heel mind you, but I just don't see anything in him. He is not special in the ring. He doesn't have any chrisma, and the only thing he has going for him is that he is in a wrestling family...that sucks. Honestly, were any of the Ortons maineventer, why should Randy be any different? He is a big doofus.

Orton Rules ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Personally, I think he is all hype. Show me something solid to beleive he is going to be big, WWE. At the moment, all he is doing is sharing Ric Flair's and HGH's spotlight.

It's like Sean O'Haire was in Rowdy Pipers shadow, then when Hot Rod left, Sean got stuck up in a cage. As soon as he leaves Evil-ution, he will be relegated to below Intercontinental level, feuding with Steven Richards, Rico and Scott Steiner.

In my opinion anyway.

No. There are a lot of others.

No i hate him legend killer my ass.

He needs to have a excellent match on PPV real fast and he needs to do it without Shawn Michaels or a Chris Jericho on the other side of him.

Orton is awesome

I am no fan of Orton but you gotta admit, boy got a lot a talent. Being around HHH and Flair can only imrove him and i imagine he will probably carry the company as the top dog at some stage.

The sad thing is really, that RVD is a good catch phrase away from being the Rock. He's been in movies, runs a nice side operation with his comic book store. He's good in the ring.

Well, I guess you could say that he doesn't have as much talent as the rock.

But Orton won't be the next huge guy. I just don't think he has it. I don't see the star power like from the Rock or from Austin. Cena has it. Orton doesn't.

Now Jericho?...

But Orton has one thinggoing for him that RVD never will.......Vince Rates him.

I like him. I think he's pretty damn good. I also don't think he will be as huge as many people seem to believe.

Orton is one of my favorite guys in the WWE.

lol, he's the man.

I don't hate Orton, but I really don't think he'll do anything other than leech off of Evolution's spotlight. He's not a bad worker by any means, but there's absolutely nothing about him that makes him any different from every other heel ever. I don't see him ever being able to carry the company.

But then again, I thought the same thing about the Rock when he took over as the top face, and look where that went. Just goes to show, I don't know nothin' about nothin.'

Orton is one of the reasons I still watch Raw

what he said :y:

Personally i say its still Early days yet.

But his definatly developing.

Not quite there yet, But theres still time.

Did BDC start this topic and not have the first post? How did this happen?

It's like Cyniks reply jumped to the top

I agree. He is entertaining. He's got time to become a real legend.

speaking of which, his "Legend Killer" gimmick is hilarious...Especially his "Friends of Randy Orton" ads.

I like him, but I believe that there is a lot more hype about him than substance.

Ive decided to become the HHH of this board, I wont let any of my posts appear below anyone else's (except this one).

Are you sleeping with AAA ('s daughter)

orton sucks. period.

You suck. Period.

Spelling out punctuation marks sucks. Period.

I don't like Orton at all.

Personal opinion, I see Orton being little more than the second coming of Billy Gunn. Overachiever, but I could be wrong. I thought a WCW Jobber named Robbie V had potential. I also thought D-Lo would be a superstar.

I think Orton is great. I've always seen him as being talented, but I caught myself recently becoming a huge mark for him. This past monday pretty much sealed the deal. I'm sure he'll become a huge star someday. In fact I wouldn't hesitate to call him the next HHH (and I'm a HHH mark so I don't mean that in a bad way).

yes.

LMAO!

I coulda sworn I had the second reply too.

Makes sense now.

Ain't no way Orton is going to reach Rock or Austin levels. He will be lucky to make Shawn Michaels levels but he will be a star.

:y:

I'm so sick of havin him shoved down my throat every week, and I wanna know who the Friends And Supporters of Randy Orton actually are, its probably himself. Legend Killer, at the mo, more like the Rating Killer. But as pointed out, its still early doors, and also as pointed out, his match with RVD was a step in the right direction. But for now he's still the annoying git who did the RNN updates and the BOY who's attempting to steal the spotlight from Flair, Batista and Trips. By the by, what happened to The OrtonDrive, that was a good move, better than RKO.
