At first, nobody.

I think this week Orton HAS to totally lay waste to everyone in Evo by himself, no help, nothing. Think back to Austin or Rock in their heyday battling factions, they didn 't have a bunch of help. They'd run into the ring and lay waste to everyone with a chair and stand victorious. If Orton is going to be a strong babyface thats what needs to happen.

Maybe the way to get their is to have a match between Benoit and HHH for the title shot at Unforgiven. HHH wins and Evo starts a savage beatdown, they could have had Orton get kicked out of the building beforehand (HHH is afraid of Orton getting back at him so Bischoff bans Orton from the building) and then as Benoit is getting beat up Orton burts through the arena doors, grabs a chair, punches out a few security guards, hits the ring and lays out all of Evolution.

That way Orton has helped Benoit (a babyface move) but hasn't really done it to help Benoit (a "cool" babyface move), more of just to get a piece of Evo. Benoit could get up and they just kinda look at each other while Orton yells at HHH.

Then down the road maybe Benoit can return the favour, and that slowly pulls Orton to the babyface side of things.

But if Benoit or someone were to help Orton this coming week it would make no sense whatsoever. I mean Orton just screwed Benoit out of the title last week, what logical reason would he have to save him? Or any other face like Jericho or Edge who have had a history with Orton.

I guess Eugene would make sense because he's "special", but then I think that takes away from Orton's moment. Next week has to be all about Orton or else this thing wont work.
