He's been pushed into the role of top heel before, yes. But it always seemed kind of forced, and he never seemed quite on the same level as the guys he was up against. At least not to me, and it seems many other posters here. The past 6 months or so have been the first time that orton has been booked in such a way that he seemed like he could beat anyone. Unstoppable.

And yeah, I agree that the comments about orton being completely finished are exaggerating, but this did kill his momentum, and it will take a while for him to believeably get it back again. He can't just come out and beat HHH next week, cause it will feel forced, just like most of his time in the main event.
