Orton probably wouldn't have been as successful or pushed as much with his current character type during the Attitude Era. Like a few posters above have said, either he'd be lost in the mix or would be in a lower division. Too many big names in the main event scene (or should have been like Taz) to really stand out.

As a heel, he would have been competing with people such as The Rock, Triple H, Undertaker, and Mr McMahon. As a tweener, he would have been competing with people such as Stone Cold, Tazz, and maybe Jericho. As a face, he would have been competing with people such as Angle, Foley, HBK/Bret Hart.

He really benefited from the Brand Split Era and lack of big names on Raw in the heel category.
