Well first off, heel vs heel matches hardly ever work. The crowd usually craps on it, because they have nobody to cheer for.

I dont expect Orton to come out next week and say "I love you fans because I got my ass beat". But what will happen is that he'll catch a bunch of beatdowns from Evo and likely Benoit and other faces will try to help him. This will make him by default a babyface, but I'm not so sure he'll be a successful face.

The other thing is that when Evo does beat him down thats a heel move (3 on 1), they are acting like cowards and bullies. There is very little that Orton could do in a 3 on 1 situation to make himself a heel. For example, using a weapon is justifiable because he's out numbered. So the only thing he would have left would be to insult the crowd, but then if he does that it will make Evo babyfaces for laying him out all the time.

By the very nature of pro wrestling one guy has to play babyface.
