I have been bored by Orton in the past, but when you hear people in the business who know their shit talk, they pretty much all drool over what Orton does. And you can't argue that he is ridiculously over. Whether or not you agree with the reasoning behind it, smart money would be to bottle whatever it is Orton has and try to make money off it.
I've heard people talk about how Orton has been "phoning it in" lately, but the guy hasn't really had too much of a program to work with. And that's probably largely in part due to him being one bad test away from being fired and becoming TNA's star attraction. Now it seems like there is more of a plan to use Orton constructively, and he's been on fire these past couple of weeks as he's been put with Sheamus, Kofi Kingston, Daniel Bryan, Kane and The Shield. I don't think the company should put a World Title on him, but I do think that he could be used to get a World Champion like a Dolph Ziggler over. People are saying that Orton vs. Sheamus is probably going to happen at SummerSlam, but I kind of think that would be a bad move, because Orton is so over I can't see people cheering Sheamus over him. Ziggler vs. Orton makes pretty good sense as a World Title match, though.
