People here don't think they can do better, they think the wrestlers can do better.

Orton was PHENOMENAL down in OVW. He was cutting OUTSTANDING promos as a heel. His promo work with Ric Flair and Triple H was good, and when he packs his heart and soul into it, it comes off really well.

I personally don't mind it when wrestlers make a few mistakes during promos, but I can understand why a few people might get a bit upset when Orton confuses title belts, or something.

I personally like Orton, and I hope he takes direction again. The thing with Orton is it is so easy to find faults with his current character and ringwork. People just like to bitch and moan about him, because it is easy. I could right an essay about how Jericho's workrate has dropped (because it had until just prior to the Elimination Chamber at NYR).

The WWE have shoved Orton down our throats, and it has not worked. Yes, Orton is more over than a lot of other guys. Yes, he can put on great matches. Yes, he can cut great promos when he wants to. There is so much going for Orton it isn't funny. But instead of letting him roast for a while as a heel that is on the verge of turning (like Batista), they had him win the title, retain it, had him betrayed by his allies and then said "Cheer him.".

When someone is shoved down your throat, you better hope they taste good and go down right. Orton has tasted good, but he hasn't gone down right, and that is something the WWE are changing with Batista who we all know tastes good. We are sitting with our mouths open in preparation now, waiting for Batista to go down and taste good. With Orton we were just sitting there, mouth shut, and they tried shoving him down and it was just a mess.

Sorry if that sounded gay, but that's how I think of it.
