Randy Orton DID NOT make that match last night. That match was pure, 100% Foley. I can almost gaurantee you that all of the big spots and the storytelling in that match were created by Mick Foley. The guy writes novels for christ's sake!
I won't put anything against that match, because it was, without a doubt, the best match that I've seen in a long, long time. It may in fact be my favorite Mick Foley match now. But the fact is that Randy Orton didn't prove anything to me last night. Sure, the guy took some serious bumps, but so did Jeff Hardy, and it didn't mean shit in the long run.
I won't deny that Randy has talent in the ring, but that match last night didn't prove a thing. He's really only had two great matches in his short WWE career, and they've been against guys who can carry anybody (HBK and Foley). When Randy becomes constantly impressive in the ring (like Benoit, Jericho, Angle, etc), then I'll sing his praises. But not today. Not yet.
