I like this thread, as I've never understood the way Orton was booked. Not to say it's been bad. And you'd be hard pressed to say it hasn't worked out for him...
His move-set and mannerisms in the ring haven't changed that much from when he won the Rumble and faced HHH at Wrestlemania and got squashed, when he was meant to be in full heel mode. Although he did get a great pop when he entered the rumble.
I would like to think he could go back to being the arrogant Legend Killer gimmick, but it's probably not in the cards. Plus by posing more to the crowd, he'd get booed.
He's probably the Randy Orton from a parallel universe where heels are faces and vice versa...
