Woah Woah, yea look at the two talents here. Cena and Taker. Cena = the future star of the WWE. Much like Austin when he came up, he NEEDS to be protected. Taker is almost of his way out. HE NEEDS to start doing jobs. Come on, I know you guys learned something from 2001-2003, where the guys like Austin, HHH, Taker and others should of done jobs to guys to elevate the new talent.

And look. Why does Orton NEED to do a heelish act after he loses to turn him heel. The fans are already gradually turning him. You know he's turning. Why can't he get the rub then? Giving him the rub and then making him show no respect is much better then giving him a loss and making him look like a soar loser.

Point: Wrestlemania 13. Austin vs Bret Hart. Bret was a babyface going into the match, correct? What happened, Bret got the win, but kicked Austin when he was down and got tremendous heat for showing no respect. He didn't have a reason to turn heel other then he won and nobody seemed to appreciate it. Just like nobody seemed to care about Orton after he went after HHH. They turned to Batista and left Orton in the dust.

Now, you may say, well shouldn't Austin have got the win if you're arguing that new talent should get the victory. Well not here because Austin came out of the match looking stronger then ever by not quitting. This got both parties over and the angle worked real well.

By giving Taker a win, how does that make Orton look strong? Yea, maybe he'll get his win at Mania 22, but isn't that a little to far down the line to be talking about right now. This is classic Taker. He doesn't and hasn't given one guy a rub in the last 5 years. Cena had a chance to beat him on a major PPV and didn't. Yea, he got his win on Smackdown, but it was made to look like a fluke. You got to protect these young guys, especially Orton and CENA. You can't be jobbing them and expect people to care. More towards Ortan then Cena. He's taken enough hits already, that if he loses at Mania, he may be screwed.

Yea, Taker will probably win and Orton will get a victory over him later. On Mania 22? Very doubtful. But still, the fact of the matter is Taker keeps his streak and Orton becomes just another name on that long and pathetic list.
