I guess it COULD work out. Those "Randy!" and "Let's go Orton!" chants could be (and one day should be) a thing of beauty.

I guess the way I see, Orton would be fairly 'over' as a face, but not to the extent that he is as a heel. In this respect, he'd be kind of like Angle.


I'd also like to see more character development for Orton.

If you look at some of the past top heels, they all had memorable runs as heels (before embarking on huge face turns).


-We saw Corporate and Nation Rock.

-We saw Degeneration X/McMahon-Helmsley Faction Triple H.

-We saw Edge and Christian when they were a tag team unit.


In all 3 of these cases, all 3 of these can be considered examples of successful and entertaining heels. Through their heeldom, they put on many memorable and entertaining skits/promos.........of which the fans loved to hate.

Granted - all of these guys could have 'made it' as a face, but would it have matched their heel responses at the time?


I'm finding it tough to explain what I'm TRYING to say, but I'd like to see Orton's heel character further develop.

Orton has the potential to be a GREAT face one day. With that being said, why settle right now and turn him into a 'good' face?
