They will sympathize for the fact that he was a sitting duck and didn't even know it. They will remember the image of him bleeding in the middle of the ring at the hands of Evolution. The tweener thing will help him though because he can act like Austin and say he never asked for the fans support.

But what successful babyface ever got over by catching a beatdown?
Hogan got over because he beat everyone, and never sold anything.
Austin got over by being a badass redneck who talks trash and beats everyone up including his boss.
Rock got over by talking smack and of course beating on everyone.
I cant think of a case where a guy was a heel, then took a major beatdown and because of that became a major babyface. Obviously Orton will have to do some work, but especially if he's going to drop the title in Sept, I think this will be a major uphill battle.
