The only other guy (other than Benjamin) to potentially feud with Orton is Jericho. I hope to see the Christian-Jericho story-line continue (even past tonight, when they're booked to go one on one) so a Benjamin feud would seem logical. It would serve as a real test for Randy in terms of drawing heat, the seeds for the feud are already there. Should Orton go over Benjamin (long, draw-out, hard-fought win at Bad Blood?) then there's the potential for a jealously story-line when Hunter returns (the fact that Orton beat Benjamin but neither HHH or Flair could).
My big gripe is the proposed Benoit-HBK feud. I'm tired of that already and Benoit went over Shawn clean last night. The premise for the feud (in terms of Michaels deserving ANOTHER title shot?) just isn't there and it's my view that Benoit could do with moving on to something new. What that is I'm not quite sure. Maybe Christian could step-up (make a Y2J-Christian match #1 contenders - Christian goes over clean) and let Benoit-Christian go for the title at Bad Blood with a stacked under-card (Jericho-Michaels gimmick match, Orton-Benjamin, Edge, Flair, HHH etc all involved somewhere)?
