He was getting massive heat and was generating interest, not because Orton is amazing, but because Foley made him look amazing.

That "IC Title match" on RAW where Foley walked out instead of getting into the ring? Genius. Losing at WrestleMania XX? Definitely put Orton over there. And then getting his ass kicked at Backlash solidified Orton as a main event player. He won the World Title a few months later at Summerslam, HOT off the heels of his feud with Foley.

He can make young guys into stars. Like I said before, Foley vs. Joe/Angle/Sting/Christian would be boss, and that's like four feuds right there, all of which I would tune in to see, and I think a lot of other people would too.

You are totally underestimating Foley's value not just as a wrestler/performer but as a wrestling mind, and I really don't understand why.
You guys really cant seem to grasp that quality wrestling angles/matches doesn't = drawing money. Gail will generate money. Foley will not. If quality is what made money then Cena would be no where near the main event and RoH would be the no.1 company in the world.

He is, and they aren't.
