Beating more old people isn't "expanding" the gimmick at all. It's just the same damn thing he's been doing, just with a different retired guy. And that's not the sort of thing you can base a career on. You can't just beat up old people for years on end and expect to stay over with the crowd. After the inevitable win over Flair, there really won't be any more "legends" Orton can squash that will make people want to buy tickets and see it happen. Longtime fans will pop for the guys they grew up watching, but honestly, the casual crowd won't give a shit. It may be a good source of cheap heat now, but it's going to get old, FAST. I predict a gimmick change (or at least a nickname change) by this time next year.
